Protect yourself from vibration
• Hand-held power tools may produce vibration. Vibration can cause disease. Gloves
may help to maintain good blood circulation in the fingers. Hand-held tools should
not be used for long periods without a break
Maintain your power tool
• Ensure all ventilation holes are kept clear at all times, otherwise overheating
and fire may occur
Always disconnect
• Before changing fittings or accessories, always disconnect the tool from the
power source
Switch off before connecting
• Ensure the power tool is switched off before connecting to the power source. If the
power tool stops unexpectedly, turn the power switch to OFF
Do not abuse the power cable
• Be sure the cable / extension cable is in good condition. Always have a
damaged cable / extension cable replaced at an authorised service centre
before using. Never pull the cable to disconnect it from the power socket. Never
carry the tool by its cable. Keep the cable away from damp, heat, oil, solvents,
and sharp edges
Do not modify the power tool

and may invalidate its guarantee

• Always wait until the tool has completely stopped functioning and has been
unplugged before leaving it unattended
Cutting Tool Safety
Use the correct cutting tool
• Ensure the cutting tool is suitable for the job. Do not assume a tool is suitable
without checking the product literature before use.
Protect your eyes
• Always wear proper eye protection when using cutting tools
• Everyday glasses are not designed to offer any protection when using this
product; normal lenses are not impact resistant and could shatter
Protect your breathing
• Ensure that yourself, and others around you, wear suitable dust masks
Protect your hearing
• Always wear proper hearing protection when tool noise exceeds 80dB
Be aware of others around you
• It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that other people in the vicinity of
the work area are not exposed to dangerous noise or dust and are also provided
with suitable protective equipment
Beware of projected waste
• In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed from the cutting
tool. Ensure there are no other persons within the work area. If it is necessary to
have other persons nearby, it is the user's responsibility to make sure that they
are equipped with the correct protective equipment
Fitting cutting tools
• Ensure cutting tools are correctly and securely fitted and check that wrenches /
adjusters are removed prior to use
• Only use cutting tools recommended for your machine
• Do not attempt to modify cutting tools
Direction of feed
• Always feed work into the blade or cutter against the direction of movement of
the blade or cutter
Beware of heat
• Be aware that cutting tools and workpieces may become hot in use. Do not
attempt to change tools until they have been allowed to cool fully
Foreign objects
• Fully inspect cutting material for any form of foreign bodies before cutting.
• Do not attempt to cut material that contains foreign bodies unless you know
that the cutting tool fitted to your machine is suitable for the job
Hidden objects
• Beware of hidden objects. Walls may conceal wiring and piping, car body panels
may conceal fuel lines, and long grass may conceal stones and glass. Always
check the work area thoroughly before proceeding
Control dust / swarf
• Do not allow dust or swarf to build up. Saw dust is a fire hazard, and some
metal swarf is explosive
• Be especially careful with machines used to cut wood and metal. Sparks from
metal cutting are a common cause of wood dust fires
• Where possible, use a dust extraction system to ensure a safer working
environment
