ELECTRICAL SAFETY
■
Power 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.
■
Avoid unintentional starting. Always check
that the switch is in Off position before
plugging in the tool to the power supply.
Do not carry a plugged-in product with your
finger on the switch.
■
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surface, such as pipes, radiator,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock is your body
is earthed or grounded.
■
Do not operate the product when there is a
risk of lightning.
■
Do not expose the product to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering an appliance
will increase the risk of electric shock.
■
Electrical power should be supplied via
a residual current device (RCD) with a
tripping current of not more than 30 mA.
■
Before every use, examine the power cord
for damage. If there are signs of damage,
it must be replaced. Always uncoil the
power cord during use. Coiled cables can
overheat.
■
If you need to use an extension cable,
ensure it is suitable for outdoor use and
has a current capacity sufficient to supply
your product. The extension cord cable
should be marked with either “H05 RNF”
