e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable
for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a
residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
g) Always hold the power cord away from the working area of the appliance
and run it to the rear away from the appliance.
h) Always pull out the plug if you leave the appliance unattended or carry out
work on the appliance.
