Safety Information
General Safety Instructions
Read all the instructions. Non-observance of the instructions below
can cause electric shock, fire and or serious personal injuries. The
term „power tool“ used below covers both mains-operated power
tools (with mains lead) and accumulator-operated power tools
(without mains lead).
All local regulations in force must be observed.
Explanation of symbols used
Danger
Indicates an immediate danger. Unless avoided,
death or serious injuries will result.
i
Indicates tips for use and other particularly useful
information.
Explosion hazard.
Attention: Danger of injury by injection!
1. Workplace
a) Keep your workplace clean and tidy.
Untidiness and unlit
working areas can lead to accidents.
b) Never use the tool in hazardous areas that contain
flammable liquids, gases or dusts.
Power tools generate sparks
that can ignite the dust or vapors.
c) Keep children and other persons away when using the
power tool.
You can lose control of the tool if you are distracted.
2. Electrical Safety
a) The tool plug must fit into the socket. The plug may not be
modified
in any form. Do not use adaptor plugs together
with protective-earthed tools.
Unmodified plugs and suitable
sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes,
heating elements, stoves and refrigerators.
The risk through
electric shock increases if your body is earthed.
c) Keep the equipment away from rain and moisture.
The
risk of an electric shock increases if water penetrates electrical
equipment.
d) Do not misuse the mains lead by carrying the tool by the
lead, hanging it from the lead or by pulling on the lead to
remove the plug. Keep the lead away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving tool parts.
Damaged or twisted leads increase
the risk of an electric shock.
e) If you work outdoors, use only extension leads that are
approved for outdoor use.
The use of an extension lead that is
suitable for outdoors reduces the risk of an electric shock.
3. Safety of Persons
a) Be attentive. Pay attention to what you are doing and work
sensibly with a power tool. Do not use the tool if you are
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
Just a moment of inattentiveness while using the tool can lead to
serious injuries.
b) Wear personal safety equipment and always wear safety
goggles.
Wearing personal protective equipment, such as
dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, safety helm or ear protection,
depending on the type of power tools, reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid accidental starting-up. Ensure that the switch is in the
"OFF" position before inserting the plug into the socket.
Accidents can occur if you carry the power tool while your finger is
on the switch or if you connect the power tool to the power supply
which it is on.
d) Remove setting tools or wrenches before switching on the
power tool.
A tool or wrench that is in a rotating tool part can
lead to injuries.
e) Do not overestimate your abilities. Ensure that you are
standing securely and have your balance at all times.
This ensures that you can control the tool better in unexpected
situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear wide clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair, clothes and gloves away from
moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
g) This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
4. Careful Handling and Use of Power Tools
a) Do not overload the tool. Use the power tool designed for
the work that you are doing.
You work better and safer in the
specified performance range if you use the suitable power tool.
b) Do not use power tools whose switch is defective.
A power
tool that cannot be switched on or off is dangerous and has to be
repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out tool
settings, changing accessories or putting the tool away.
This
precautionary measure prevents unintentional starting of the tool.
d) Store unused power tools so that they are inaccessible
to children. Do not let persons use the tool who are not
familiar with it or who have not read these instructions.
Power tools are dangerous when they are used by inexperienced
persons.
e) Take proper care of your tools. Check whether the moving
parts function trouble-free and do not jam, whether
parts are broken or damaged so that the tool function is
impaired.
Have damaged parts repaired before using the tool.
Many accidents have their origin in power tools that have been
