General safety warnings
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term ”power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
•
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
•
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
•
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
•
Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as
dense fog, rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc.
Working in bad weather is tiring and can lead to
dangerous conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces.
•
Ensure when cutting that no material can become
loose and fall, causing operating injury.Take great
care when working on sloping ground.
Electrical safety
•
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric
shock.
•
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
•
The power tool should not be exposed to more
moisture than what is supplied by the low flushing
water system. Do not expose the power tool to rain.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
•
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oli, charp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
•
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
•
Check that the cord and extension cord are intact and
in good condition. Never use the machine if the cord
is damaged, hand it in to an authorized service
workshop for repair.
•
Do not use an extension cord while it is rolled up to
avoid overheating.
•
When using an extension cable, use only certified
extension cables with sufficient reach. For more
information, see "Recommended cable dimensions"
in the "Technical data" section. An undersized cable
means a risk of reduced machine capacity and
overheating.
•
The machine should be connected to an earthed
outlet socket. Check that the mains voltage
corresponds with that stated on the rating plate on the
machine.
•
Ensure the cord is behind you when you start to use
the machine so that the cord will not be damaged.
