General safety regulations for electric tools
!
CAUTION!
Read all safety regulations and instructions.
Any failures made in following the safety regulations
and instructions may result in an electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety regulations and instructions in a
safe place for future use.
The term “electric tool” used in the safety regulations
refers to electric tools operated from the mains power
supply (with a power cable) and to battery operated
electric tools (without a power cable).
1. Workplace safety
•
Keep your work area clean and well illuminated.
Untidy or unlit work areas can result in accidents.
•
Do not use this tool in a potentially explosive
environment containing combustible liquids,
gases or dust.
Electric tools generate sparks, which can in turn
ignite dust or vapors.
•
Keep children and other persons away from
the electric tool while it is being used.
Allowing yourself to get distracted can cause you
to lose control of the tool.
2. Electrical Safety
•
The tool’s connector plug must be able to fit into
the socket outlet. Do not modify the plug in any
way! Do not use adapter plugs in conjunction
with electrically grounded tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching socket outlets
reduce the risk of an electric shock.
•
Avoid touching grounded surfaces, such as those
of pipes/tubes, heaters, cookers and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of getting an electric shock
if you are electrically grounded.
•
Keep the tool away from rain and
moisture/wet conditions.
Penetration of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.
•
Do not use the cable to carry the tool, hang it up
or pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the cable
away from sources of heat, oil, sharp edges and
moving tool parts.
Damaged or tangled cable increases the risk of
an electric shock.
•
If you intend to use an electric tool outdoors,
ensure that you only use extension cable that is
approved for outdoor applications.
Using extension cable that is approved for outdoor
applications reduces the risk of an electric shock.
•
If operation of the electric tool in a damp
environment can not be avoided, use a
earthleakage circuit-breaker.
The earth-leakage circuit-breaker reduces the risk
of an electric shock.
