• Do not use the cable for another purpose, for
example, carrying or hanging the electric tool
or pulling the plug out of the socket. Keep the
cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or mov-
ing device parts.
Damaged or coiled cables in-
crease the risk of an electric shock.
• If you work with an electric tool outdoors, on-
ly use extension cables that are also suitable
for outdoor use.
Using an extension cable suit-
able for outdoor use reduces the risk of an elec-
tric shock.
• If you cannot avoid using the electrical tool in
a wet environment, use a fault-current circuit
breaker.
Using a fault-current circuit breaker re-
duces the risk of an electric shock.
3. Personal safety
• Be alert, be careful 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 op-
erating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
•
Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
• 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 power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times.
This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewel
-
lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If dust extraction and collection devices can
be mounted, make sure that they are connect-
ed and used properly.
Using a dust extraction
unit can reduce hazards caused by dust.
4. Power tool use and care
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application.
The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that can
-
not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/

General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may re
-
sult in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

1. Work area safety
• Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmos-
pheres, 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 op-
erating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
•
The electrical tool’s connection plug must fit
into the socket. The plug may not be modified
in any way. Do not use an adaptor plug togeth-
er with earthed electric tools.
Unmodified plugs
and suitable sockets reduce the risk of an electric
shock
• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces,
such as pipes, heaters, ovens and refrigera-
tors
. There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed.
• Keep electric tools away from rain and mois-
ture.
Water entering an electric tool increases the
risk of an electric shock.
