WARNING

Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications
provided with this power tool. Failure
to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Safety instructions
General power tool safety
warnings
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference. The term "power tool" in
warnings refers to 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
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 power tool
Distractions can cause loss of control.
 Electrical safety
. Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
. 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.
. Do not abuse the cord. Never use
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.
. When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces 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.
NOTE
The term "residual current device
(RCD)" can be replaced by the term
"ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)"
or "earth leakage circuit breaker
(ELCB)".
 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 moment of
inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal
injury.
. Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat
or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
. Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure 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 energising 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 power
tool may result in personal injury.
. Do not overreach. 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 and clothing 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.
. Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a
fraction of a second.
 Power tool use and care
. Do not force the power tool. Use
correct power tool for your
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 remove the battery
pack, if detachable, 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 power tool
or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
. Maintain power tools and
accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect
power tool's operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before
