General safety advice for
electrical power tools
Read all the safety advice
and instructions!
Failure to observe the safety
advice and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and / or serious injury.
Keep all the safety advice and instructions
in a safe place for future reference!
The term “electrical tool” used in the safety advice
refers to electrical tools powered by mains electricity
(by means of a mains lead) and electrical tools pow-
ered by rechargeable batteries (without a mains lead).
1.
Workplace safety
a)
Keep your working area clean and
well lit.
Untidy or poorly lit working areas
can lead to accidents.
b)
Do not work with the device
in potentially explosive envi-
ronments in which there are
inflammable liquids, gases or dusts.
Electrical power tools create sparks, which can
ignite dusts or fumes.
c)
Keep children and other
people away while you are
operating the electrical tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control of
the device.
2.
Electrical safety
a)
The mains plug on the device must match
the mains socket. The plug must not be
modified in any way. Do not use an
adapter plug with devices fitted with
a protective earth.
Unmodified plugs and
matching sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b)
Avoid touching earthed surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ovens and refrig-
erators with any part of your body.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed.
c)
Keep the device away from rain or
moisture.
Water entering an electrical device
increases the risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not use the mains lead for
any purpose for which it was
not intended, e.g. to carry the
device, to hang up the device or to pull
the mains plug out of the mains socket.
Keep the mains lead away from heat,
oil, sharp edges or moving parts of the
device.
Damaged or tangled mains leads
increase the risk of electric shock.
e)
When working outdoors with an elec-
trical power tool always use extension
cables that are also approved for use
outdoors.
The use of an extension cable suit-
able for outdoor use reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock.
f)
Use a residual current device (RCD)
for protection if operating the electri-
cal power tool in a moist environment
is unavoidable.
The use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a)
Remain alert at all times, watch what
you are doing and always proceed
with caution. Do not use the device if
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication.
One moment
of carelessness when using the device can lead
to serious injury.
b)
Wear personal protective
equipment and always wear
safety glasses.
Wearing personal
protective equipment such as ear protection,
dust mask or work gloves, depending on the
type of electric tool and its application, reduc-
es the risk of injuries.
c)
Avoid unintentional operation of the
device. Check that the electrical power
tool is switched off before you connect
it to the mains, pick it up or carry it.
Accidents can happen if you carry the device
with your finger on the ON / OFF switch or with
the device switched on.
