3.Keep visitors away from the work area. All visitors and onlookers, especially children and infirm persons should be kept well away from where you are working. Do not let others in the vicinity make contact with the tool or extension cord.

4.Store tools safely. When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry, high place or locked up out of the reach of children and infirm persons.

5.Do not force the tool. The tool will do the job better and safer working at the rate for which it was designed.

6.Use the correct tool for the job. Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job best handled by a heavier duty tool. Never use a tool for a purpose other than that for which it was intended.

10.Do not abuse the power cord. Never pull the cord to disconnect the tool from the power point. Keep the cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges.

11.Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece. It is safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate the tool.

12.Do not overreach. Keep your footing secure and balanced at all times.

13.Look after your tools. Keep tools clean and sharp for better and safer performance. Follow the instructions regarding lubrication and accessory changes. Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorised service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace them if damaged. Keep tool handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

14.Disconnect idle tools. Switch off the power and disconnect the plug from the power point before servicing, when changing accessories and when the tool is not in use.

15.Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form the habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before switching it on.

16.Avoid unintentional starting. Always check that the switch is in the OFF position before plugging in the tool to the power supply. Do not carry a plugged in tool with your finger on the switch.

17.Use outdoor rated extension cords. When a tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use and are so marked.

18.Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate a power tool when you are tired.

19.Check for damaged parts. Before using a tool, check that there are no damaged parts.
