General power tool safety warnings

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power
tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
•
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
•
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

•
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. Please note that rain, fog
and other humidity can vary in intensity and the equipment can not be used
in extreme conditions. Keep batteries away from saline environment and
contaminated liquids. After use, the battery and the device are to be dried.

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 influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A lapse of attention
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 appropriately will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack and when
picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energizing 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 over-reach. 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, jewellery
or long hair can be caught in moving 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.
Power tool use and care
•
Do not force the power tool. Use the power tool for the 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 before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
•
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
•
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
