Electrical safety
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the 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.
2. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
3. 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.
4. If needed, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
5. 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.
Personal safety
1. 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.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3. 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 power
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
4. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
5. Dress properly. Wear right clothes (long trousers) and non-slip shoes. Do not wear
sandals or open-toed shoes.
6. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
7. Do not 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.
Garden power tool use and care
1. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rated speed for which it was designed.
2. Do not leave the power tool unattended when it's working.
3. Use auxiliary handle(s) if supplied with the power tool. Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
