WORK AREA SAFETY
◾
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
◾
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
◾
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
PERSONAL SAFETY
◾
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
◾
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
◾
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up
or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents
◾
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
◾
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
◾
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair and
clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
◾
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use
of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
◾
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
