Thank you for choosing Heinner!
Important
!
When using equipment, a few safety
precautions must be observed to avoid injuries
and damage. Please read the complete operating
manual. Keep this manual in a safe place, so that
the information is available at all times. If you give
the equipment to any other person, give them
these operating instructions as well. We accept no
liability for damage or accidents which arise due to
non-observance of these instructions.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ELECTRIC
TOOLS
Caution!
Read all safety regulations. Any errors
made in following the safety regulations may
result in an electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
The term `electric tool` used in the safety
instructions refers to electric tools operated from
the mains power supply (with a power cable) and
to battery operated electric tools (without a power
cable).
Workplace safety
Keep your work area clean and well illuminated.
Untidy or unlit work areas can result in accidents.
Do not operate the electric tool in an
environment where there is a risk of explosions
and where there are inflammable liquids, gases or
dust.
Electric tools produce sparks which could set
the dust or vapors alight.
Keep the electric tool out of the reach of children
and other persons.
If there is a distraction, you
may lose control of the appliance.
Electrical safety
The connector plug from this electric tool must fit
into the socket. The plug should never be altered
in any way. Never use adapter plugs together
with earthed electric tools.
Unaltered plugs and
correct sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.
Avoid bodily contact with earthed surfaces such
as pipes, heating, ovens and fridges.
The risk of
electrical shock is increased if your body is
earthed.
Keep the tool out of the rain and away from
moisture.
The ingress of water into an electric tool
increases the risk of an electric shock.
Do not use the cable to carry the electric tool, to
hang it up or to pull it out of the socket. Keep the
cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges and
moving parts of the appliance.
Damaged or
entangled cables increase the risk of an electric
shock.
If you are working outdoors with an electric tool,
only use extension cables which are designed
specifically for this purpose.
Using specially
designed outdoor extension cables, the risk of
electric shock is reduced.
If operation of the electrical tool in a damp
environment cannot be avoided, use an earth-
leakage circuit-breaker.
The earth leakage circuit-
breaker reduces the risk of an electric shock.
Safety of persons
Be careful, watch what you are doing and use an
electric tool sensibly. Do not use the tool if you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication.
A moment of inattention when
using the electric tool can result in serious injuries.
Wear personal protection equipment and always
wear safety goggles.
Wearing personal protection
(such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes and
safety helmet or ear protection) reduces the risk of
injury.
Make sure that the appliance cannot start up
accidentally. Ensure that the electric tool is
switched off before you connect it to the power
supply and/or insert the battery, or pick up or
carry the tool.
If your finger is on the switch whilst
carrying the electric tool or if you connect the
appliance to the mains when it is switched on, this
can lead to accidents.
Remove the keys and wrenches before switching
on the electric tool.
