Introduction / General power tool safety warnings
Noise emission value:
Measured values for noise are determined in accord-
ance with EN 60745. The A-weighted noise level
of the electrical power tool are typically:
Sound pressure level: L
= 80 dB(A)
Uncertainty K :
3 dB(A)
Sound power level: L
= 91 dB(A)
Uncertainty K
:
3 dB(A)
Wear ear protection!
Vibration values (vector sum in three
directions) determined according to
EN 60745:
Vibration emission value a
h
= 2.3 m / s
2
Uncertainty K = 1.5 m / s
2
Note:
The vibration level specified in these instruc-
tions was measured in accordance with an EN 60745
standardised measurement process and can be used
to compare equipment. The vibration emission value
specified can also serve as a preliminary assessment
of the exposure.
The vibration level will change according to the
application of the electrical tool and in some cases
may exceed the value specified in these instructions.
Regularly using the electric tool in such a way may
make it easy to underestimate the vibration.
Try to keep the vibration loads
as low as possible. Measures to reduce the vibration
load are, e.g. wearing gloves and limiting the work-
ing time. Wherein all states of operation must be in-
cluded (e.g. times when the power tool is switched
off and times where the power tool is switched on but
running without load).
General power tool
safety warnings
Read all safety
warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions may result in electric shock, fire and / or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference!
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-op-
erated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a)
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b)
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
c)
Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool.
Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a)
Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
c)
Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool.
Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
e)
When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for out-
door use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.
