General safety instructions for
power tools
WARNING! Read all safety direc-
tions and instructions.
Omissions
in the compliance with safety direc-
tions and instructions can cause
electrical shock, fire and/or severe
injuries.
Retain all safety directions and instruc-
tions for future use.
The term “Power Tools” used in the safety
instructions refers to mains-operated pow-
er tools (with power cord) and to battery-
operated power tools (without power cord).
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a)
Keep work area clean and well
lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
b)
Do not operate power tools in ex-
plosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable Iiquids,
gases or dust.
Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c)
Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool.
Dis-
tractions can cause you to lose control.
2)
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a)
Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power
tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
c)
Do not expose power tools to rain
or wet conditions.
Water entering
a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
d)
Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or un-
plugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts.
Damaged or entan
opergled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e)
When operating a power tool out-
doors, use an extension cord suita-
ble for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
f)
If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a RCD
(Residual Current Device) protected
supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the
risk of electric shock.
3)
PERSONAL SAFETY
Please note that children, indi-
viduals with limited physical,
sensory or mental capabilities,
those with insufficient experi
-
ence or knowledge or individu-
als who are not familiar with the
instructions must never be per-
mitted to use the machine.
Local
regulations may specify an age
restriction for the user.
