GB
WARNING!
► The vibration level specified in these instructions
has been measured in accordance with the
standardised measuring procedure specified
in EN 60745 and can be used to make
equipment comparisons. The specified vibration
emission value can also be used to make
an initial exposure estimate. The vibration
level varies in accordance with the use of
the power tool and may be higher than the
value specified in these instructions in some
cases. There is a risk of underestimation of
the vibration load if the power tool is used
regularly in this manner.
NOTE
► For an accurate estimate of the vibration load
during a specific working period, the periods
during which the appliance is switched off or
is running but not actually being used must
also be taken into consideration. This can
significantly reduce the vibration load over
the total working period.

Safety Warnings
WARNING!
► Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
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 battery-
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 grounded
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
reduces the risk of electric shock.
