of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c)Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distrac- tions can cause you to lose control.

2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a)Power tool plugs must match the out- let. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Un- modified plugs and matching outlets will re- duce risk of electric shock.

b)Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radi- ators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c)Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

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 out- door use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f)If operating a power tool in a damp lo- cation is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. 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 influ- ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating pow- er tools may result in serious personal inju- ry.

b)Use personal protective equipment. Al- ways wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection

used for appropriate conditions 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 unexpect- ed 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 connec- tion of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

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 de- signed.

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 battery pack from the power tool before making any adjust- ments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety mea- sures 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 mis- alignment or binding of moving parts,
