GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
Read all the safety notes, instructions, illustrations and
technical details supplied with this power tool. Failure to
follow the safety notices and instructions may result in an
electric shock, fire and/or severe injury.
Keep all safety notes and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” used in the safety instructions
refers to mains-operated power tools (corded) and
battery-powered power tools (cordless).
Work place safety
a) Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not work with the power tool in areas with a risk of
explosion where flammable liquids, gases or dusts are
present. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and other persons away from the power
tool while you are using it. If you are distracted, you could
lose control of the power tool.
Electrical safety
a) The connector plug for the power tool must fit in the
socket. The plug must not be modified in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs in combination with power tools
with protective earthing. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces like pipes,
heaters, stoves and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Keep power tools away from rain or moisture. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
d) Do not use the cord for improper purposes such as for
carrying the power tool, for hanging it up or for pulling
or unplugging it from the socket. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use only
extension cords that are suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
f) If operating the power tool in a damp environment
cannot be avoided, use a RCD. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
Safety of persons
a) Be careful, pay attention to what you are doing and
approach work with a power tool in a reasonable manner.
Do not use any power tool if you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
