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.
• 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
• 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 influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medica-
tion. A moment of inattention white op-
erating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
• use personal protective equip-
ment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for appropri-
ate conditions will reduce personal inju-
ries.
• 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
finger on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites ac-
cidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or
wrench before turning the power
tool on. A wrench or a key left at-
tached 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 jewellery. Keep
your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-
lery or long hair can be caught in mov-
ing 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.
4) POWER TOOL uSE AND CARE
• Do not force the power tool. use
the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool
will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and
off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the
power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool be-
fore making any adjust -ments,
changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentaIly.
• Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not al-
