fire, electric shock and personal injury.

Retain this manual for future reference.
1. Keep work area clean
Cluttered areas and benches can cause
accidents.
2. Consider work area environment
Do not expose the tool to rain. Do not use the
tool in damp or wet conditions. Keep the work
area well lit (250 - 300 Lux). Do not use the tool
where there is a risk of causing fire or explosion,
e.g. in the presence of flammable liquids and
gases.
3. Guard against electric shock
Prevent body contact with earthed surfaces (e.g.
pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators).
When using the tool under extreme conditions
(e.g. high humidity, when metal swarf is being
produced, etc.), electric safety can be further
improved by using a highsensitivity 30 mA
Residual Current Device (RCD).
4. Keep other persons away
Do not let persons, especially children, not
involved in the work touch the tool or the
extension cord and keep them away from the
work area.
5. Store idle tools
When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry
place and locked up securely, out of reach of
children.
6. Do not force the tool
It will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was intended.
7. Use the right tool
Do not force small tools to do the job of a heavy
duty tool. Do not use tools for purposes not
intended; for example do not use circular saws to
cut tree limbs or logs.
8. Dress properly
Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, as these
can be caught in moving parts. Wear protective
hair covering to keep long hair out of the way.
When working outdoors, preferably wear suitable
gloves and non-slip footwear.
9. Use protective equipment
Always use safety glasses. Use a face or dust
mask whenever the operations may produce
dust or flying particles. If these particles might be
considerably hot, also wear a heat-resistant
apron. Wear ear protection at all times. Wear a
safety helmet at all times.
