Original instructions
d. 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
e. 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
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoida‑
ble, use a residual current device (RCD) protected sup‑
ply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock
3. Personal safety
a. 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 oper-
ating power tools may result in serious personal injury
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate condi-
tions will reduce personal injuries
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off‑position before connecting to power source and/
or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying
power tools with your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents
d. 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
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations
f. 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
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. The use of these pieces of
equipment reduce hazards caused by dust
4. Power tool use and care
a. 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
b. 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
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack 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
d. 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
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condi‑
