General Safety Requirements – EN 60745-1
Warning!
Read all the instructions. Failure to adhere to the following instructions may lead to electric shocks, fires and/
or serious injury. The term “power tools” in the warning text below refers to your handheld mains operated or
battery operated tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
1) Work area
a) Do not use power tools in explosive environments, e.g. near to flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools generate sparks that can easily ignite dust or fumes.
b) Keep children and other bystanders away from the area where you are using the power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose your concentration and control.
2) Electrical safety
a) The power tool’s plug must fit correctly into the wall socket. Never modify the plug in any way. Never use
an adaptor together with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and suitable wall sockets minimize the risk
of electric shocks.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed objects such as pipes, radiators, ovens or refrigerators. There is
an increased risk of receiving an electrical shock if your body is earthed.
c) Do not expose the power tool to rain or other wet conditions. If water gets inside it increases the risk of
electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the mains lead. Never use the lead to carry the tool or pull the plug from a wall socket.
Keep the lead away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or tangled leads increase
the risk of electric shock.
e) If for some reason you must use a power tool in a wet environment, always connect it to the mains via
an earth-fault circuit breaker such as an RCD (residual current device). Using an RCD significantly reduces
the chances of you receiving an electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Pay attention to what you are doing and use common sense when using power tools. Never use power
tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. One moment of inattention while
using a power tool may result in serious injury.
b) Wear protective clothing. Always wear safety glasses. Using protective clothing such as dust masks,
non-slip safety shoes, helmets and ear defenders when needed decreases the risk of injury.
c) Avoid accidental starts. Make sure that the power switch is set to OFF before plugging the tool into
a wall socket. Never carry a power tool with your finger on the trigger and never connect the power tool to
a wall socket when the switch is set to ON, since it may result in injury.
d) Remove all service tools/keys before switching on the power tool. A service tool left on any moving part of
the power tool may result in injury.
