SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Keep your work area clean and well
lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas
invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in an
environment where explosive or
corrosive gases could be present.
Power tools create sparks which may
ignite fumes. Avoid areas where there is
excessive dampness or humidity.
• Keep children, bystanders and
visitors away while operating the
power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
• Always set up or fix the tool in a
stable position.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adaptor plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified 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 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.
• Never yank the cord to disconnect if
from socket. Keep the cord away from
heat and sharp edges.
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 influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Tie back long
hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery, or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before
plugging in. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or plugging
in power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches
before turning the tool on. A wrench
or a key that is left attached to a rotating
part of the tool may result in injury.
• Accessories and metal parts can
become very hot.
