PERSONAL SAFETY.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating this power tool. Do not use this
power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medicines. A moment of inattention while
operating this power tool may cause serious personal
damage.
USE PPE’S.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on
application, use a face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing
protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of
stopping small abrasive or work piece fragments.
The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying
debris generated by various operations. The dust mask
or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles
generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to
high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
DO NOT WORK ON TIPTOES.
Keep your feet on the ground and balance at all
times. This enables better control of this power tool
in unexpected situations.
DRESS PROPERLY.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts. If there are devices for connecting
means for extracting and collecting dust, make sure
they are connected and properly used. The use of
these devices can reduce dust related hazards.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY.
The plug of this power tool must match with the base
of the socket. Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plug with earthed power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching bases will reduce
the risk of electric shock. Avoid body contact with
grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is grounded. Do not expose power
tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. Hold
this power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
when performing an operation where the spinning
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
A spinning accessory contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of this power tool “live”
and could give the operator an electric shock.
DO NOT ABUSE THE CORD.
Never use the cord to carry, lift or unplug the power
tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock. When operating this power
tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. The use of an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. If the
use of a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable,
use a power protected by a residual current device
(RCD). The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING.
Make sure the switch is in “off” position before
connecting to the network, or when taking or carrying
the power tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the
switch in “on” position invites to accidents. Remove
keys or tools before starting the power tool. A left key
or tool attached to a rotating part of a power tool can
cause personal injury. Never lay this power tool down
until the accessory has come to a complete stop. Do
not run this power tool while carrying it at your side.
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
conceived. Do not use the power tool if the switch
cannot be positioned to “off” and “on” position . Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired. Remove the
plug from the power supply and/or battery before
making any adjustments, changing accessories
or storing the power tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally. Do not use accessories which are not
specifically designed and recommended by Werku
®
.
Just because the accessory can be attached to
this power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use, inspect the accessory. If this power tool or its
accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install
an undamaged accessory. Regularly clean this
power tool’s air vents. The motor’s fan will draw the
dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation
of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
