a Keep work area clean and
well lit. Cluttered or dark
work areas invite accidents.
b Do not operate power
tools in explosive atmos-
pheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liq-
uids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c Keep children and by-
standers away while oper-
ating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
2 Electrical safety
a Power tool plugs must
match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapt-
er plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce
the risk of electric shock.
b Avoid body contact with
earthed or grounded sur-
faces such as pipes, radia-
tors, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
c Do not expose power tools
to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of elec-
tric shock.

d Do not abuse the cord.
Never use the cord for car-
rying, pulling or unplug-
ging 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.
e When operating a power
tool outdoors, use an ex-
tension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use re-
duces the risk of electric
shock.
f If operating a power tool in
a damp location is una-
voidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) pro-
tected supply. Use of an
RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3 Personal safety

are doing and use com-
mon sense when operat-

inattention while operating
power tools may result in se-
