SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read the Operating Instructions carefully before use
Read these instructions carefully before use and save them for future reference.
WORK AREA
Keep the work area clean and well lit. Dark and cluttered work areas increase the risk of accidents and
injuries.
Do not use power tools in explosive environments, such as in the vicinity of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools produce sparks that can ignite dust and fumes.
Keep children and onlookers at a safe distance when using the tool. You can easily lose control of the tool
if you are distracted.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
•
The mains plug on the power tool must match the mains outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Never
use an adapter with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets reduce the risk of
electric shock.
•
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.
•
Do not expose power tools to rain or damp conditions. There is an increased risk of electric shock if water
enters a power tool.
•
Be careful with the power cord. Never use the cord to carry or pull the power tool or to pull out the plug
from the mains socket. Keep the power cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts.
Damaged cables must be replaced immediately by an authorized electrician. Damaged cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
•
If using the tool outdoors, only use an extension cord approved for outdoor use and RCD protected
power supply.
•
If it is absolutely necessary to use power tools in damp conditions, use a mains connection protected by a
residual current device. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
•
We recommended you use an RCD with a tripping current of a maximum of 30 mA.
PERSONAL SAFETY
•
Stay alert. Remember to use all necessary safety precautions and common sense when working with
power tools. Never use power tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication.
•
A moment of inattention when using a power tool can result in serious personal injury.
•
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. Wear a hair net if you have long
hair.
•
Keep hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
•
Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position before plugging in the power
cord. Carrying a power tool with your finger on the switch or connecting a tool to the mains supply when
the switch is in the ON position increases the risk of accidents and injuries.
