b) Do not operate power
tools in explosive atmos-
pheres, such as in the
presence of flammable
Iiquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep children and by-
standers away while
operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
CAUTION! The following
states how to avoid ac-
cidents and injuries due to
electric shock:
a) Power tool plugs must
match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body con-
tact with earthed or
grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radia-
tors, ranges and re-
frigerators. There is an in-
creased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or
grounded.
c) Do not expose power
tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering
a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord.
Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e) When operating a pow-
er 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.
3) Personal safety
CAUTION! The following
states how to avoid acci-
dents and injuries:
a) 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 white operating
power tools may result in se-
rious personal injury.
