1. Working Environment
a) Keep the working area clean and well-illuminated.
Mess and dark spaces in the working area are the
most common cause for injuries. Please store the tools
properly when not in use.
b) Do not use the power tool in the environment with
the risk of fire or explosion, i.e. in areas where flam -
mable liquids, gases or dust are present. Sparks are
formed on the commutator of the power tool and may
cause ignition of dust or vapours.
c) When using power tools, prevent access of unau -
thorized persons, in particular children, to the work -
space! If distracted, you can lose control of activities
performed. Never leave power tools unattended. Pre -
vent access of pets/animals to the equipment.
2. Electrical Safety
a) The power cable plug of the power tool must match
the wall socket. Never alter the plug in any way. Never
use two-way adaptors or any other adaptors with the
tools having a protective pin in the power cable plug.
Undamaged plugs and matching sockets reduce the
risk of electric shock. Damaged and tangled power
cables increase the risk of electric shock. Should the
power cable be damaged, it must be replaced by a
new power cable that may be acquired in our author -
ized service centre or from the importer.
b) Avoid body contact with grounded objects, i.e. pip -
ing,
central heating radiators, cookers and refrigerators.
Risk of electric shock is increased when your body
touches the ground.
c) Do not expose the power tool to rain, humidity or
other wet conditions. Never touch the power tool with
wet hands. Never wash the power tool under running
water. Never immerse it in water.
d) Do not use the power cable for any purpose other
than for which it is intended. Never carry or pull the
power tool by its power cable. Do not pull the plug from
the socket by cable pulling. Prevent mechanical dam -
ages to the electric cables by sharp or hot objects.
e) The power tool has been manufactured for powering
by the alternating current. Always check the compli -
ance of the voltage with the rated voltage stated on the
nameplate.
f) Never use the power tool with a damaged cable or
plug, or which fell to the ground and is damaged in any
way.
g) Should you use an extension cable, always check
the compliance of its technical parameters with speci -
fications stated on the nameplate. If the power tool is
used outdoors, use an extension cable suitable for out -
door use. When using extension drums, these must be
unwound to prevent cable overheating.
h) Should the power tool be used in damp areas or out -
doors, it may be used only if connected to an electric
circuit with a circuit breaker ≤30 mA. Use of electric
circuits with an RCD device reduces the risk of electric
shock.
i) Hold the hand power tool only by insulated surfaces
intended for gripping since the cutting or the welding
equipment may touch a hidden wire or the power cable
of the tool during operation.
3. Personal Safety
a) When using the power tool, be attentive and vigilant,
pay maximum attention to the activity you are doing.
Focus on work. Do not use the power tool when tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
Even a moment of inattention when using a power tool
may result in a serious personal injury. When working
with power tools, do not drink, eat or smoke.
b) Use protective equipment. Always wear eye protec -
tion. Use protective equipment corresponding with the
type of work you are doing. Protective equipment,
e.g. a respirator, safety slip-resistant shoes, headwear
or hearing protection in accordance with conditions of
work reduce the risk of personal injury.
c) Avoid accidental power tool activation. Do not carry
power tools connected to the mains with your finger on
the trigger or the switch button. Before connecting to
the mains, check that the switch or the trigger is in the
“off” position. Carrying of power tools with your finger
on the switch or inserting the power tool plug into a
socket with a switch being “on” may result in serious
injuries.
d) Before switching the power tool, remove all ad -
justment wrenches and other tools. The adjustment
wrench or a tool that remains attached to the rotating
part of the power tool may result in injuries of bystand -
ing people.
e) Always keep stable position and balance. Work only
on areas that you can safely reach. Never overesti -
mate your own strength. Do not use power tools when
tired.
f) Dress appropriately. Wear working clothes. Do not
wear loose-fitting clothes or jewellery. Be careful not to
allow your hair, clothes, gloves or other parts of your
body to get too close to the rotating or hot parts of the
power tool.
g) Connect an equipment for dust extraction. If the
power tool may be connected to an equipment for cap -
