Electrical safety
a)
The connector plug for the power tool must fit in the socket. The
plug must not be modified in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs in combination with power tools with protective earthing.
Plugs that have not been modified and sockets with the proper fit
reduce the risk of an electric shock.
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces like pipes, heaters,
stoves and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is grounded.
c)
Keep power tools away from rain or moisture. If water penetrates
a power tool, there is an increased risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not use the cord for purposes other than the intended one
such as for carrying the power tool, hanging it up or pulling the
plug out of the socket. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts of the device. A damaged or wound up
cable increases the risk of an electric shock.
e) If you are working with a power tool outdoors, only use
extension cords that are also suitable for outdoor use. The use of
an extension cord suitable for outdoor application reduces the risk of
electrical shock.
f) If operating the power tool in a damp environment cannot be
avoided, use a RCD. Using a RCD reduces the risk of an electric shock.
Safety of persons
a)
Be careful, pay attention to what you are doing and approach
work with a power tool in a reasonable manner. Do not use
any power tool if you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A single moment of inattentiveness when
using the power tool can result in serious injury.
b) Wear personal protective gear and always wear safety glasses.
Depending on the type of power tool and how it is used, wearing
personal protective gear such as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes,
a protective helmet or ear protection reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid accidentally activating the device. Make sure that the
power tool is turned off before you connect it to the power
supply and/or the rechargeable battery, pick it up or carry it.
