Safety messages are designed to alert you to possible dangers or hazards that could cause death, injury or

equipment or property damage if not understood or followed. Safety messages have the following symbols:

You WILL be KILLED or

SERIOUSLY INJURED if you do

not follow instructions.

You CAN be KILLED or

SERIOUSLY INJURED if you do

not follow instructions.

You CAN be INJURED if you do

not follow instructions or equipment

damage may occur.

It is vital that you read and understand this

user manual before using the product,

including safety warnings, and any assembly

and operating instructions. Keep the manual

for future reference.

Safety precautions and recommendations

detailed here must be fully understood and

followed to reduce the risk of injury, fire,

explosion, electrical hazard, and/or property

damage.

Safety information presented here is generic

in nature – some advice may not be

applicable to every product. The term

"equipment" refers to the product, be it

electrical mains powered, battery powered or

combustion engine powered.

•Before Use - If you are not familiar with the

safe operation/handling of the equipment or

are in any way unsure of any aspect of

suitability or correct use for your

application, you should complete training

conducted by a person or organization

qualified in safe use and operation of this

equipment, including fuel/electrical handling

and safety.

•Do NOT operate the equipment in

flammable or explosive environments, such

as in the presence of flammable liquids,

gases or dust. The equipment may create

sparks or heat that may ignite flammable

substances.

•Keep clear of moving parts.

•Equipment may be a potential source of

electric shock or injury if misused.

•Do NOT operate the equipment if it is

damaged, malfunctioning or is in an

excessively worn state.

•Do NOT allow others to use the equipment

unless they have read this manual and are

adequately trained.

•Keep packaging away from children - risk

of suffocation! Operators must use the

equipment correctly. When using the

equipment, consider conditions and pay

due care to persons and property.

General Work Area Safety

•Work areas should be clean and well it.

•Do not operate the equipment if

bystanders, animals etc are within

operating range of the equipment or the

general work area.

•If devices are provided for connecting dust

extraction / collection facilities, ensure

these are connected and used properly.

Dust collection can reduce dust-related

hazards.

General Personal Safety

•Wear appropriate protective equipment

when operating, servicing, or when in the

operating area of the equipment to help

protect from eye and ear injury, poisoning,

burns, cutting and crush injuries. Protective

equipment such as safety goggles,

respirators, non-slip safety footwear, hard

hat, hearing protection etc should be used

for appropriate equipment / conditions.

Other people nearby should also wear

appropriate personal protective equipment.

Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery,

which can be caught in moving parts. Keep

hair and clothing away from the equipment.

•Stay alert and use common sense when

operating the equipment. Do not over-

reach. Always maintain secure footing and

balance.

•Do not use the equipment if tired or under

the influence of drugs, alcohol or

medication.
