General safety advice
carry it.
Accidents can happen if you carry
the device with your finger on the oN / oFF
switch or with the device switched on.
d)
remove any setting tools or spanners
before you switch the device on.
A tool
or spanner left attached to a rotating part of a
device can lead to injury.
e)
Avoid placing your body in an unnat-
ural position.
Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. By doing this you will be
in a better position to control the device in un-
foreseen circumstances.
f)
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves clear of
moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery or
long hair can become trapped in moving parts.
g)
If vacuum dust extraction and collec-
tion devices are fitted do not forget to
check that they are properly connect-
ed and correctly used.
The use of these
devices reduces the hazard presented by dust.
4.
Careful handling and use of
electrical power tools
a)
Do not overload the device. Always
use an electrical power tool that is
intended for the task you are under-
taking.
By using the right electrical power
tool for the job you will work more safely and
achieve a better result.
b)
Do not use an electrical power tool if
its switch is defective.
An electrical pow-
er tool that can no longer be switched on and
off is dangerous and must be repaired.
c)
Pull the mains plug out of the socket
before you make any adjustments to
the device, change accessories or
when the device is put away.
This pre-
caution is intended to prevent you from uninten-
tionally starting the device.
d)
When not in use always ensure that
electrical power tools are kept out
of reach of children. Do not let any-
one use the device if he or she is not
familiar with it or has not read the
instructions and advice.
Electrical power
tools are dangerous when they are used by
inexperienced people.
e)
Look after the device carefully. Check
that moving parts are working prop-
erly and move freely. Check for any
parts that are broken or damaged
enough to detrimentally affect the
functioning of the device. Have dam-
aged parts repaired before you use
the device.
Many accidents have their ori-
gins in poorly maintained electrical power tools.
f)
Use the electrical power tool, acces-
sories, inserted tools etc. in accordance
with these instructions and advice, and
the stipulations drawn up for this
particular type of device. In doing this,
take into account the working condi-
tions and the task in hand.
The use of
electrical power tools for purposes other than
those intended can lead to dangerous
situations.
5. Careful handling and use of
rechargeable devices
a)
Charge a rechargeable battery unit
using only the charger recommended
by the manufacturer.
Chargers are often
designed for a particular type of rechargeable
battery unit. There is the danger of fire if other
types of rechargeable battery units are used.
b)
only the rechargeable battery units
supplied are to be used with an elec-
trical power tool.
The use of other recharge-
able battery units may lead to the danger of
injury or fire.
c)
When they are not being used, store
rechargeable battery units away from
paperclips, coins, keys. nails, screws
or other small metal objects that could
cause the contacts to be bridged.
Short-
circuiting the contacts of a rechargeable battery
unit may result in heat damage or fire.
