GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
IMPORTANT! Read all the warnings and instructions. Failure
to comply with the warnings and instructions may cause
electric shock, fire and/or serious injuries.
Strict observance of these warnings with the use of personal
protective equipment minimizes risks of accidents but does
not completely rule them out.
Use the appliance as described in these instructions.
Do not use it for purposes for which it was not intended.
Store all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to the machine
tools operated by means of (wired) connection to the electric
power supply or battery (wireless).
1) Safety in the work area
a) Keep the work area clean and well lit.
Overcrowded and/
or badly lit areas may cause accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, e.g.
in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or powders.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and unauthorised personnel at a distance
when operating a power tool.
Distractions may cause you
to lose control of the tool.
d) Store plastic bags and packaging in a safe place.
Bags
can cause suffocation and must be kept out of the reach
of children.
e) Use the tool in a well-ventilated area.
Ventilation is neces-
sary for cooling the tool and for eliminating air impurities
produced when working.
f) Do not operate power tools outdoors in the presence of
rain, fog, storms, high or low temperatures, or in damp or
wet environments.
Use under these conditions may result
in electric shock.
2) Electrical safety
a) The plug of the power tool must match the socket. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use adaptors with ear-
thed power tools.
Unmodified plugs and suitable sockets
reduce the risk of electric shocks.
b) Avoid bodily contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators.
If
your body is earthed, the risk of electric shock increases.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain, and do not use in
damp or humid areas.
Water permeating into a power tool
increases the risk of electric shocks.
d) Do not wear out the cable. Never use the cable to tran-
sport, pull or disconnect the power tool from the power
supply socket. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts.
Damaged or twisted cables incre-
ase the risk of electric shocks.
e) When using a power tool outdoors, use an extension
cable suitable for outdoor use.
The use of a suitable cable
reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) Use an electric power supply protected by a circuit bre-
aker (RCD).
The use of a suitable residual current device
(RCD) reduces the risk of electric shock. Consult your
electrician.
g) The power supply must match the one specified on the
power tool.
An unsuitable power supply generates malfun-
ctioning and accidents.
h) Frequently check the power supply cable. Do not crush or
tread on the power supply cable.
A damaged cable causes
electric shock.
i) In case of doubt regarding electricity, consult an expe-
rienced technician.
The unsafe use of electricity is very
dangerous for yours and other people’s safety.
3) Personal safety
a) Always stay alert while using power tools, pay attention
to what you are doing and use common sense. Never
use the tool when you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medicines.
A moment of distraction when
using power tools could cause serious personal injuries.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection.
Protection equipment such as dust repelling
masks, anti-slip safety shoes, gloves, safety helmets, or
ear protections reduces the possibility of personal injuries.
c) Prevent switching the appliance on accidentally. Make
sure that the switch is in the off position before connecting
the tool to the electric power supply and/or to battery
units and before taking or transporting it.
Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch or connecting them to
the electric power supply with the switch in the on position
can cause accidents.
d) Remove any regulation keys before turning on the power
tool.
Any key or spanner left attached to a rotating part of
the power tool may cause personal injuries.
e) Do not lose your balance. Always keep an appropriate
position and balance.
This allows better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair may
get entangled in the moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for connection to equipment for
extraction and collection of dust, ensure that these are
correctly connected and properly used.
The use of these
devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) The user is responsible for any third parties, for any
accident or damage to people or their property.
Improper
use causes accidents and damage.
i) Never use with bare or wet feet/hands.
Use under these
conditions may result in electric shock.
l) The processing of materials which are hazardous to
health must be in compliance with applicable laws.
Some types of dusts and materials such as metals, wood,
paints, etc. are very harmful to health. Protect your and other
people’s health using suitable protections and devices.
m)Do not touch any air cooling exhausts or vents on the
tool.
The air generated can contain harmful residues,
and small parts which are a hazard to the eyes and the
respiratory tract.
n) Do not cover or insert anything in the cooling slots.
Unsuitable ventilation of the power tool may start a fire.
Accessing the internal parts may damage the tool and cause
electrocution.
o) Do not use the power tool if the protections (screens, pa-
nels, doors, etc.) are open, damaged or missing.
Correctly
installed guards protect your health and allow for safe use.
