General safety information for power tools
The term „power tool“ used in the safety 
regulations refers to power tools operated from 
the mains power supply (with a power cable) and 
to battery operated power tools (without a power 
cable).
1)  Work area safety
a)   Keep work area clean and well lit. 
Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b)   Do not operate power tools in explosive 
atmospheres, such as in the presence of 
fl ammable 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
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. Unmodifi ed plugs 
and matching outlets will reduce 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 tools 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 infl uence 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 dust 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 to power source and/or 
BATTERY pack, picking up or carrying the 
tool. Carrying power tools with your fi nger 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 a key left attached to a rotating part of the 
power tool may result in personal injury.
e)    Do not overreach. Keep proper footing 
and balance at all times. This enables 
better control of the power tool in unexpected 
situations.
f)     Dress properly. Do not wear loose 
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, 
clothing and gloves away from moving 
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
