GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING

Read all safety warnings and all instructions.

Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may

result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your 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 the 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 a

power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

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.

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 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.

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.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable,

use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected

supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

For use with 18 V nickel-cadmium and 18 V lithium-ion

battery packs, see tool/appliance/battery pack/charger

correlation supplement 988000-302.

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 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 the 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, clothing and gloves 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 wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.

Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn into air

vents.

Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable

footing on a solid surface enables better control of the

power tool in unexpected situations.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

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 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 the

battery pack 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 the power tool

or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power

tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other

condition that may affect the power tool’s operation.

If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power

tools.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind

and are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in

accordance with these instructions, taking into account

the working conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations different from those

intended could result in a hazardous situation.

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

Recharge only with the charger specified by the

manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type

of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with

another battery pack.

Use power tools only with specifically designated

battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create

a risk of injury and fire.
