General Safety Information
1. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions cause a
loss of control.
2. Check for signs of wear or damage, before using the tool and after any impact, and
repair as necessary.
3. The tool is designed for use by adults. Young people over 16 years may use the tool
under supervision only.
4. The manufacturer is not liable for damage which is caused through inappropriate use or
incorrect operation.
1. Work area safety
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• 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.
2. Electrical safety
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the charger cord. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• The use of a RCD (residual current device) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less
is advised for additional safety when using the charging unit.
