General safety notes for handling
power tools
•
Read all safety notes and
instructions.
Failure to follow all
safety notes and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
•
Store all safety notes and safety
instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" as
used in the safety notes
refers to mains-operated
electrical tools (with power
cables) and to battery-
operated power tools
(without mains cables).
Safety at work
•
Keep your work space clean and
well lit.
Cluttered and dark areas
invite accidents.
•
Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust.
Electrical tools create
sparks, which may ignite dust or
vapours.
•
Keep children and uninvolved
bystanders away while operating a
power tool.
Distractions can cause
you to lose control of the device.
•
Ensure sufficient ventilation.
Stale,
odour-intensive air can cause
tiredness.
Electrical safety
•
Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use an adapter plug in
conjunction with protective-earth
devices.
Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets reduce risk of
electric shock.
•
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
