General safety precautions
WARNING!
Read all safety precautions and instructions.
Failures in the compliance with these
safety precautions and instructions can cause electric shock, fire and/or heavy injuries.
Please keep these safety precautions and instructions for the future.
The term “electric tool” used in the safety precautions corresponds to mains operated electric
tools (with mains cord) and to battery operated electric tools (without mains cord).
Security of employment
• Keep your working area clean and well illuminated.
Disorder or unilluminated working are-
as can cause accidents.
• Do not work in explosive ambiances with the electric tool, in which there are flammable
liquid, gases or dusts.
Electric tools generate sparks which can inflame the dust or vapors.
• Keep children and other persons away from the electric tool while using it.
When being
distracted, you can lose the control on the device.
Electrical safety
• The mains plug of the electric tool must fit into the socket. The plug must not be
changed in any kind. Do not use adapter plugs together with earthed electric tools.
Unmodified plugs and fitting sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces, like tubes, heatings, cookers and fridges.
There is a higher risk of electric shock when your body is earthed.
• Keep your electric tool away from rain or wetness.
The infiltration of water into an electric
tool increases the risk of an electric shock.
• Do not divert the cord from its intended use from carrying or hanging up the electric
tool, or for pulling the plugs from the socket. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving device parts.
Damaged or tangled cords increase the risk of an electric
shock.
• If you work outside with your electric tool, only use extension cords that are appropriate
for outside use.
The use of a extension cord which is appropriate for outside use reduces the
risk of an electric shock.
• If the use of the electric tool in humid areas is inevitable, use a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI).
The use of a GFCI reduces the risk of an electric shock.
