14.3 Personal safety
• Always remain cautious and aware of your responsibilities when
operating an electrical device. Do not use an electrical device if you
are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A short mo-
ment of inattentiveness may cause substantial injury to yourself or others
• Always wear your personal protective clothing. Always wear eye-
protectors.
Wearing personal protective clothing, such as dust mask,
non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet or ear muffs, reduces the risk of in-
jury and is thus absolutely essential.
• Don’t overestimate yourself. Ensure that you always have a firm
foothold and that you keep your balance.
You will thus have better
control over the unit in unexpected situations.
14.4 Use and caring for electrical equipment
• Never work with unsuitable equipment. Always use electrical equip-
ment suitable for the job and work area.
You can carry out your work
more effectively and more safely with the right equipment.
• Do not use the device if it cannot be SWITCHED ON and OFF with
the switch.
An electrical device that cannot be switched on and off via the
switch represents a danger source and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the socket outlet and/or remove the ac-
cumulator from the electrical device before making settings on the
device, changing accessories or storing the device.
Such precaution-
ary measures prevent unintentional start-up of the electrical device.
• Store unused electrical devices out of reach of children and do not
allow persons not familiar with the unit or persons who have not read
the Manual to use the unit.
Electrical devices are hazardous if used by
inexperienced persons.
• Service and care for your electrical equipment. Ensure that all
moving and fixed parts are in the right position, that no parts are bro-
ken and that there are no other faults, so as to ensure smooth opera-
tion of the unit. If damaged, the unit must first be repaired before re-
use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained electrical devices.
• Use electrical devices and accessories in accordance with the in-
structions, allowing for working conditions and the work to be per-
formed.
If electrical devices are not used in accordance with regulations,
this may lead to hazardous situations.
14.5 Maintenance
Have your electrical device repaired only by qualified specialists and
only with original spare parts.
This will keep the device safe.
