Electrical safety
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
4. 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.
5. 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.

7. 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.
8. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, 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.

breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tools operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control
7. 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.

3. Do not use accessories which are not
specifically designed and recommended by the
tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not assure
safe operation.
4. The rated speed of the accessory must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. Accessories running faster than
their rated speed can break and fly apart.
5. The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be within the capacity rating
of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories
cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
6. The arbour size of wheels, flanges, backing
pads or any other accessory must properly fit
the spindle of the power tool. Accessories that do
not match the mounting hardware of the power tool
will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may
cause loss of control.
7. Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive
wheels for chips and cracks, backing pad for
cracks, tear or excess wear. If power tool or
accessory is dropped, inspect for damage

Damaged accessories will normally break apart
during this test time.
8. Wear personal protective equipment. Depending
on application, use face shield, safety goggles
or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust
mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop
apron capable of stopping small abrasive or
workpiece fragments. The eye protection must
be capable of stopping flying debris generated by
various operations. The dust mask or respirator
must be capable of filtrating particles generated by
your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
9. Keep bystanders a safe distance away from
work area. Anyone entering the work area must
wear personal protective equipment. Fragments
of workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly
away and cause injury beyond immediate area of
operation.
10.Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and
could give the operator an electric shock.

a way which is not specifically designed and
specified by the tool manufacturer. Such a
conversion may result in a loss of control and cause
serious personal injury.
KICKBACK AND RELATED WARNINGS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other
accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling
of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the
Safety

uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction
opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the point of the
binding. For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged
or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that
is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface
of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick
out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from
the operator, depending on direction of the wheel’s
movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels
may also break under these conditions. Kickback is the
result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
1. Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. Always use auxiliary
handle, if provided, for maximum control over
kickback or torque reaction during start-up. The
operator can control torque reactions or kickback
forces, if proper precautions are taken.
2. Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over your
hand.
3. Do not position your body in the area where
power tool will move if kick- back occurs.
Kickback will propel the tool in direction opposite to
the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
Safety

1414
Getting started...
EN TTI894GRD
4. Use special care when working corners, sharp
edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing
have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and
cause loss of control or kickback.
5. Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or
toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent
kickback and loss of control.
SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR GRINDING
AND ABRASIVE CUTTING-OFF OPERATIONS:
1. Use only wheel types that are recommended for
your power tool and the specific guard designed
for the selected wheel. Wheels for which the
power tool was not designed cannot be adequately
guarded and are unsafe.
2. The grinding surface of centre depressed
wheels must be mounted below the plane of
the guard lip. An improperly mounted wheel that
projects through the plane of the guard lip cannot be
adequately protected.
3. The guard must be securely attached to the
power tool and positioned for maximum safety,
so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards
the operator. The guard helps to protect operator
from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact
with wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.
4. Wheels must be used only for recommended
applications. For example: do not grind with the
Safety

side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are
intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied
to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
5. Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are
of correct size and shape for your selected
wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus
reducing the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges
for cut-off wheels may be different from grinding
wheel flanges.
6. Do not use worn down wheels from larger power
tools. Wheel intended for larger power tool is not
suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and
may burst.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR
ABRASIVE CUTTING-OFF OPERATIONS:
1. Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply
excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an
excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel
increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting
or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility
of kickback or wheel breakage.
2. Do not position your body in line with and
behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the
point of operation, is moving away from your body,
the possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel
and the power tool directly at you.
Safety

1616
Getting started...
EN TTI894GRD
3. When wheel is binding or when interrupting a
cut for any reason, switch off the power tool
and hold the power tool motionless until the
wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt
to remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while the
wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur.
Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate
the cause of wheel binding.
4.
Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece.
Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully re-enter
the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the
power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
5. Support panels or any oversized workpiece
to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and
kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their
own weight. Supports must be placed under the
workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of
the workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
6. Use extra caution when making a “pocket
cut” into existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes,
electrical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.
Additional safety warnings for battery
1. Do not connect the positive terminal and negative
terminal of the battery to each other with any metal
object (such as wire).
2. Do not carry or store battery together with
necklaces, hairpins or other metal objects.
Safety

3. Do not pierce the battery with nails, strike the battery
with a hammer, step on the battery or otherwise
subject it to strong impacts or shocks.
4. Do not solder directly onto the battery.
5. Do not expose battery to water or salt water, or
allow the battery to get wet.
6. Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
7. Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or
other high temperature locations. Do not place the
battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery
inside cars in hot weather.
8. Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-
pressure containers or on induction cookware.
9. If you intend to store a battery for a period without
use then store battery at room temperature (19°C
to 25°C), charged to about 30 – 50% of capacity.
When storing for very long periods boost charge the
battery once per year to prevent over discharge.

Additional safety warning for construction dust
The updated Control of Substances Hazardous to
Health Regulations 1st October 2012 now also targets
to reduce the risks associated with silica, wood and
gypsumdusts. Construction workers are one of the at-
risk groups within this because of the dust that they
breathe: silica dust is not just a nuisance; it is a real
risk to your lungs!
Silica is a natural mineral present in large amounts
in things like sand, sandstone and granite. It is also
commonly found in many construction materials such
as concrete and mortar. The silica is broken into very
ne dust (also known as Respirable Crystalline Silica
or RCS) during many common tasks such as cutting,
drilling and grinding. Breathing in very ne particles
of crystalline silica can lead to the development of:
Lung cancer Silicosis Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary
Disorder/Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(COPD) and breathing in ne particles of wood dust
can lead to the development of Asthma. The risk of
lung disease is linked to people who regularly breathe
construction dust over a period of time, not on the odd
occasion.
To protect the lung, the COSHH Regulations sets a
limit on the amount of these dusts that you can breathe
(called a Workplace Exposure Limit or WEL) when
averaged over a normal working day. These limits are
not a large amount of dust: when compared to a penny

it is tiny – like a small pinch of salt: This limit is the legal
maximum; the most you can breathe after the right
controls have been used.
How to reduce the amount of dust?
1. Reduce the amount of cutting by using the best
sizes of building products. Use a less powerful tool
e.g. a block cutter instead of angle grinder.
2. Using a different method of work altogether – e.g.
using a nail gun to direct fasten cable trays instead
of drilling holes first.
3. Please always work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles and use
the dust extraction facility at all time.

Safety warnings
WARNING! Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other
construction activities contains chemicals known
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paint
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated timber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
upon how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved protective equipment,
such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to lter microscopic particles.
Vibration
The European Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive
has been brought in to help reduce hand arm vibration
syndrome injuries to power tool users. The directive
requires power tool manufacturers and suppliers to
provide indicative vibration test results to enable users
to make informed decisions as to the period of time a
power tool can be used safely on a daily basis and the
choice of tool.
