7.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.
8.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.
Personal Safety
9.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.
10.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hats, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
11.Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
plugging it in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
12.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.
13.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
14.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.
15.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.
