2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
ever 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 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
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.
