Safety instructions
■
Do not operate the machine in rain or wet
conditions. This may increase the risk of
electric shock.
■
Do not abuse the mains cable. Never use
the mains cable for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the machine. Keep mains ca-
ble away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled mains
cables increase the risk of electric shock.
■
When operating a machine outdoors, use
an extension lead suitable for outdoor
use. Use of an extension lead suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
■
If operating a machine in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current de-
vice (RCD) protected supply. Use of an
RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3.1.3
Personal safety
■
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a ma-
chine. Do not use a machine while you are
tired or under the influence of drugs, alco-
hol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating machines may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
■
Use personal protective equipment. Al-
ways wear eye protection. Protective equip-
ment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce person-
al injuries.
■
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before con-
necting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the machine.
Carrying machines with your finger on the
switch or energising machines that have the
switch on invites accidents.
■
Remove any adjusting key or wrench be-
fore turning the machine on. A wrench or a
key left attached to a rotating part of the ma-
chine may result in personal injury.
■
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables bet-
ter control of the machine in unexpected situ-
ations.
■
Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewellery. Keep your hair and cloth-
ing 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 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 machines allow you to become
complacent and ignore machine safety
principles. A careless action can cause se-
vere injury within a fraction of a second.
3.1.4
Electrical machine use and care
■
Do not force the machine. Use the correct
machine for your application. The correct
machine will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
■
Do not use the machine if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any machine that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dan-
gerous and must be repaired.
■
Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack, if
detachable, from the machine before mak-
ing any adjustments, changing accesso-
ries, or storing machines. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the machine accidentally.
■
Store idle machines out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar with the machine or these instruc-
tions to operate the machine. Machines are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
■
Maintain machines and accessories.
Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the ma-
chine's operation. If damaged, have the
machine repaired before use. Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained ma-
chines.
■
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cut-
ting edges are less likely to bind and are eas-
ier to control.
■
Use the machine, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the machine for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazard-
ous situation.
■
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slip-
