The rating plate on your tool may show symbols. These represent important
information about the product instruction on its use.
This symbol is known as the ’Crossed-out Wheelie Bin Symbol’. When
this symbol is marked on a product or battery, it means that it should not
be disposed of with your general household waste. Some chemicals
contained within electrical/electronic products or batteries can be
harmful to health and the environment. Only dispose of electrical/
electronic/battery items in separate collection schemes, which cater
for the recovery and recycling of materials contained within. Your co-

WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all the instructions listed
in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool
or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Work area
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas can lead to accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause a loss of control.
2) Electrical safety
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
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.
• Replacement of the supply cord. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
an electrician or a power tool repairer.
• 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 residual current
device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
• Have your tool repaired by an electrician or a power tool repairer. This power tool
complies with relevant safety requirements. To avoid danger, electrical appliances
this may result in considerable damage to the user.
3)Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as a
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used whenever
conditions require will reduce personal injuries.
• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the ‘off’ position before plugging
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Cont.)
that have the switch on may cause an accident.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or 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 these devices
can reduce dust related hazards.
4)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 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 sticking 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 stick and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool,
taking into account the working conditions the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from intended use could lead to a hazardous
situation.
