GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS
⚠
WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless)
power tool.
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a.
Keep work area well ventilated, clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence or flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
c.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
a.
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased 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 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.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
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 while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as a dusk mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off position before connecting the tool to a power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or 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
e.
all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
f.
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
g.
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust related hazards.
h. 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
injuries within a fraction of a second.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a.
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct tool for
your application. The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on
and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
c.
remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the
power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories or storing power tools. Such preventative
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
f.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp edges are less likely
to bind and are easier to control.
g.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
