2. Electrical safety
a. The connector plug of the device must fit into the power outlet. The plug cannot
be modified in any way. Do not use adapter plugs in conjunction with grounded
devices. Unaltered plugs and suitable power outlets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid physical contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, heaters, stoves,
and refrigerators. Increased risk of electric shock exists when your body is groun-
ded.
c. Keep the device away from rain or moisture. The penetration of moisture into an
electric device increases the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not use the cable for any purpose other than its intended purpose; do not
use the cable to carry or hang up the device; do not pull the plug out of the
power outlet via the cable. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or
moving device parts. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk of electric shock.
e. When you work with a power tool outdoors, only use extension cords that are
approved for outdoor use. Use of an extension cord that is approved for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating the power tool in a damp environment cannot be avoided, use a
ground fault circuit interrupter. The use of a ground fault circuit interrupter reduces
the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a. Be attentive and aware of what you are doing; proceed with caution when wor-
king with a power tool. Do not use the device if you are tired or under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. One moment of carelessness while using
the device can lead to serious injuries.
b. Always wear personal protective gear and safety goggles. The use of personal
protective gear, such as dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, hardhat, or hearing pro-
tection, depending on the nature and use of power tool, reduces the risk of injuries.
c. Avoid unintentional startup. Make sure that the power tool is switched off
before you connect it to the power supply and / or the battery, or pick it up or
carry it. Having your finger on the switch while carrying the device or the device
switched on when you connect it to the power supply can lead to accidents.
d. Remove the adjusting tool or the wrench before you turn on the device. A tool
or a wrench left in a rotating device part can lead to injuries.
e. Avoid unusual body postures. Ensure that you are standing in a stable and safe
position and maintain your balance at all times. This will enable you to better
control the power tool in unexpected situations.
