GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING！Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and /or serious injury.
1) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, 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 the cord away from heat, oil and sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
2) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert Watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not operate tool when you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating 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, hardhat, or ear protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before
plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging
in 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 appropriately. 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.
3) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the tool. Use the correct power tool for your application, The
correct power tools will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
they were 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 before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Maintain power tools, Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
e) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
f) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with
these instructions and in the manner intended for that particular type of
power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations other than those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
4) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified technician using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
