WARNING!
►
The total vibration level and the noise emis-
sion values vary depending on the use of the
power tool and may be higher than the value
specified in these instructions in some cases .
Regular use of the power tool in this way may
cause the user to underestimate the vibration .
Try to keep the vibration loads as low as
possible . Measures to reduce the vibration
load are, e .g . wearing gloves and limiting the
working time . Wherein all states of operation
must be included (e .g . times when the power
tool is switched off and times where the
power tool is switched on but
running without load) .
General power tool
safety warnings
WARNING!
►
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illust-
rations and specifications provided with this
power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury .
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term „power tool“ in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or bat-
tery-operated (cordless) power tool .
1 . Work area safety
a)
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents .
b)
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 .
c)
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause
you to lose control .
2 . Electrical safety
a)
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 risk of electric shock .
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed or ground-
ed surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded .
c)
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions.
Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock .
d)
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock .
e)
When operating a power tool outdoors, use
an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock .
f)
If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduc-
es the risk of electric shock .
3 . Personal safety
a)
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool while you are
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication.
A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury .
b)
Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such
as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries .
c)
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools
with your finger on the switch or energising pow-
er tools that have the switch on invites accidents .
