Electrical safety
a)
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, heaters, stoves and re
-
frigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
b)
Keep power tools away from rain or moisture.
Penetration of water into a power tool
increases the risk of electric shock.
c)
Do not misuse the connection cable in order to carry or hang up the charger or to
pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the connection cable away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts.
Damaged or tangled connection cables increase the risk of
electric shock.
d)
If operating the charger in a damp environment cannot be avoided, use a fault-
current circuit breaker.
The use of a fault-current circuit breaker reduces the risk of
electric shock.
e)
Check the electrical equipment regularly. Immediately remove loose connections
and scorched cables.
Loose connections or scorched cables can lead to electric shock
and risk of fire.

Safety of people
a)
Be alert, pay attention to what you are doing and take care when you are working
with a power tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or under the influ
-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while using the power
tool can result in serious injury.
b)
Wear personal protective equipment and always safety glasses.
Wearing personal pro
-
tective equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet or hearing
protection, depending on the type and use of the power tool lowers the risk of injury.
c)
Prevent accidental starting. Ensure that the power tool is switched off before you
connect it to the power supply and/or the battery, pick it up or carry it.
Accidents
can occur if you have your finger on the switch while carrying the power tool or if you
connect the power tool to the power supply when it is switched on.
