The term "power tool" in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
1. WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well
lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite acci-
dents.
b) Do not operate power tools
in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders
away while operating 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 adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and match-
ing outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b) Avoid body contact with
earthed or grounded sur-
faces, 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 power tools to
rain or wet conditions. Water en-
tering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Nev-
er use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or en-
26
tangled cords increase the risk of elec-
tric shock.
e) When operating a 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 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.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY
a) 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 influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medic-
ation. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equip-
ment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Protective equipment such as a
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat or hearing protection used for ap-
propriate conditions will reduce per-
sonal injuries.
c) 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 in-
vites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key
or wrench before turning the
power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the
