General Notes on Safety
Warning
!
Read all safety notices,
instructions, illustrations and
technical data that have been
provided with this power tool.
Failure to comply with the following
instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injuries.
Keep all safety information and
instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” used in the safety
information refers to mains-powered power
tools (with a mains cable) and to battery op
-
erated power tools (with no mains cable).
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.
Distractions 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 match
-
ing 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 elec-
tric 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 unplug
-
ging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or mov
-
ing parts.
Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool out
-
doors, use an extension cord suit
-
able for outdoor use.
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 resid
-
ual current device (RCD) protected
supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk
of electric shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are do
-
ing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alco
