Keep work area clean
Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
Consider the work environment
Do not expose power tools to rain or use them in damp
or wet locations. Keep work area well lit. Do not use
power tools in the presence of flammable liquids,
vapours or gases.
Guard against electric shock
This unit contains dangerous voltages. Use a RCD
(residual current device) to provide protection against
electrical shock. Prevent body contact with grounded
surfaces (e.g. pipes, radiator, ranges or refrigerators).
Keep children and pets away
Do not let children or pets come into contact with the
tool, extension cable or work area.
Do not force the tool
It will work better and safer at the rate for which it was
intended.
Use the right tool
Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job of
a heavy-duty tool. Do not use tools for purposes for
which they were not intended; for example do not use a
circular saw for cutting trees or logs.
Do not abuse the cable
Never carry the tool by the cable or pull it to disconnect
it from the power socket. Keep the cable away from
heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not touch the metal plug
pins when connecting or removing the plug.

1.5mm2). Plug into an earthed socket only.
When using a cable reel unwind it fully. Do not use long
extension cables.
Outdoors use
If the tool is suitable to be used outdoors, only use an
extension cable intended for outdoor use and marked
accordingly. Use a RCD (residual current device) to
provide protection against electrical shock. Do not use
in rain or damp conditions.
Connect a dust extraction device
Whenever there are facilities for fitting a dust or fume
extraction system, make sure it is connected and used.
Use recommended accessories
The use of an accessory or attachment other than
recommended in the instructions or catalogue may
present a risk of personal injury. Use an extension cable
with a minimum conductor size of 1.5mm2.
