SAFETY GUIDELINES
•
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
Electrical safety
•
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. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
•
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.
•
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
•
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep the
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
•
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.
•
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground-fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
•
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use tool while tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
•
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.
•
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure that the switch is in the off-position before connecting to a
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger
on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
•
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.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
•
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
•
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure that
these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
