presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a garden power
tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
a)Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) garden
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
b)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.
c)Do not expose garden power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a garden power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d)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.
e)When operating a garden 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.
f)If operating a garden 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.
