shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of elec-
tric 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 un-
plugging the power tool. keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entan-
gled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool out-
doors, use an extension cord suit-
able 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 do-
ing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention
white operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protec-
tive equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate condi-
tions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. En-
sure 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 ener-
gising 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 rotat-
ing part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
• Do not overreach. keep proper foot-
ing 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 mov-
ing parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the con-
nection of dust extraction and col-
lection 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 ap-
plication. 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 control-
led with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
