General Po er Tool Safety
Warnings GEA006-2
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 arnings 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
1. Kee work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
2. Do not o erate ower tools in ex losive
atmos heres, such as in the resence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Kee children and bystanders away while
o erating a ower tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
Electrical safety
4. Power tool lugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the lug in any way. Do not use any
ada ter lugs with earthed (grounded) ower
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as i es, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
6. Do not ex ose ower tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, ulling or un lugging the ower tool.
Kee cord away from heat, oil, shar edges or
moving arts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
8. When o erating a ower tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
9. If o erating a ower tool in a dam location is
unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interru ter
(GFCI) rotected su ly. Use of an GFCI reduces
the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
10. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when o erating a ower tool. Do
not use a ower 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.
11. Use ersonal rotective equi ment. Always wear
eye rotection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
12. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off- osition before connecting to ower
source and/or battery ack, icking u or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
13. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the ower tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
14. Do not overreach. Kee ro er footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
15. Dress ro erly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Kee your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving arts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
16. If devices are rovided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and ro erly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
17. Do not force the ower tool. Use the correct ower
tool for your a lication. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
18. Do not use the ower 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.
19. Disconnect the lug from the ower source and/or
the battery ack from the ower tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing ower tools. uch preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
20. Store idle ower tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow ersons unfamiliar with the
ower tool or these instructions to o erate the
ower tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
21. Maintain ower tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving arts, breakage of arts and
any other condition that may affect the ower
tool’s o eration. If damaged, have the ower tool
re aired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
22. Kee cutting tools shar and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
23. Use the ower tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be erformed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
Battery tool use and care
24. Recharge only with the charger s ecified 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.

7
25. Use ower tools only with s ecifically designated
battery acks. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
26. When battery ack is not in use, kee it away from
other metal objects, like a er cli s, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that
can make a connection from one terminal to
another. horting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
27. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical hel .
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
Service
28. Have your ower tool serviced by a qualified
re air erson using only identical re lacement
arts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
29. Follow instruction for lubricating and changing
accessories.
30. Kee handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease.
