You will work better and more safely if you keep
your tools sharp and clean.
Check the power cable regularly and have it
replaced by an authorized specialist at the first
sign of any damage.

When working outdoors, use only extension
cables that are approved for outdoor use and
which are marked accordingly.
Concentrate on what you are doing. Take a
sensible attitude to your work.
Never use the tool when you are tired.
Never use a tool with a switch that cannot be
turned on and off.
The use of plug-in tools and accessories other
