General safety instructions for power tools
3 GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR POWER TOOLS
WARNING!
Read all safety instructions, instruc-
tions, illustrations and technical data
that are provided with this power tool.
Failure to comply with the following in-
structions can lead to an electric shock,
fire and/or series injuries.
■
Keep all safety instructions and other
instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" used in the safety instruc-
tions refers to mains-operated power tools (with
mains line) and to battery-operated power tools
(without mains line).
3.1 Safety in the workplace
■
Keep your working area clean, and make
sure it is well illuminated.
Untidiness or
dimly lit working areas can lead to accidents.
■
Do not work with the power tool in a po-
tentially explosive atmosphere with the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust.
Power tools give rise to sparks that can
ignite the dust or vapours.
■
Keep children and other people away from
the power tool when using it.
If you are dis-
tracted, you may lose control of the power
tool.
3.2 Electrical safety
■
Avoid physical contact with earthed sur-
faces such as on pipes, heaters, cookers
and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed.
■
Keep electrical tools out of the rain and
away from moisture.
Water getting into an
electrical tool increases the risk of an electric
shock.
3.3 Personal safety
■
Be alert, pay attention to what you are do-
ing and take a cautious approach to work-
ing with a power tool. Do not use a power
tool if you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medicines.
A mo-
ment's inattentiveness when using the power
tool can result in serious injury.
■
Wear personal protective equipment, and
always use safety goggles.
The injury risk
can be reduced by wearing personal protec-
tive equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip
shoes, a protective helmet or ear defenders,
depending on the type and application of the
power tool.
■
Avoid starting to operate the appliance in-
advertently. Ensure the switch is in the
off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the power tool.
Accidents can be
caused by leaving your finger on the switch
when you carry the power tool or when you
connect it to the power supply.
■
Remove the adjusting tools or spanner
before you switch on the power tool.
A
tool or spanner that is in a rotating part of the
power tool can cause injury.
■
Avoid an abnormal bodily posture. Make
sure you can stand safely and keep your
balance at all times.
This will enable you to
control the power tool better if something un-
expected happens.
■
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear baggy
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and
clothing away from moving parts.
Loose
clothing, jewellery or long hair can be
snagged on moving parts.
■
If dust extraction and catchment devices
can be mounted, then these must be con-
nected and correctly used.
Using a dust ex-
traction system can reduce the risk caused
by dust.
■
Do not give yourself a false sense of safe-
ty; do not ignore the safety rules for pow-
er tools even if you are familiar with the
power tool after using it many times.
One
careless action can lead to serious injuries
within seconds.
3.4 Use and handling of the electrical tool
■
Do not overload the power tool. Use the
appropriate power tool for the job you are
doing.
Using the appropriate power tool will
enable you to work more effectively and safe-
ly in the specified performance range.
■
Do not use a power tool if it has a defec-
tive switch.
A power tool that can no longer
be switched on or off is dangerous and must
be repaired.
■
Disconnect the plug from the socket and/
or remove the battery before you make
adjustments to the appliance, replace
parts or put the power tool away.
This pre-
cautionary measure will prevent the power
tool from starting inadvertently.
