General Safety Instructions

WARNING

●

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustra-
tions and specifications provided with this power
tool.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may re-
sult in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save

all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) product or battery-operated
(cordless) product.

1 Work area safety

Keep work area clean and well lit

Cluttered or

dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive at-
mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust.

Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while op-
erating a power tool.

Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

Electrical safety

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Nev-
er modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will

reduce the risk of electric shock.

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.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase

the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled

cords increase the risk of electric shock

When operating a power tool outdoors, use
an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply.

Use of an RCD reduc-

es the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing 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, alcohol or med-
ication.

A moment of inattention while operating

power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection.

Protective equipment such

as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate condi-
tions will reduce personal injuries.

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools

with your finger on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on.

A wrench or a key

left attached to a rotating part of the power tool
may result in personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.

This enables better control

of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewel-

lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, en-
sure these are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards

Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles.

A careless action

can cause severe injury with a fraction of a sec-
ond.

Power tool use and care

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application.

The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.

Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off.

Any power tool that cannot

be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools.

Such preventive safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the power tool acciden-
tally.

Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to oper-
ate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous

in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly main-

tained power tools.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.

Use of the pow-

er tool for operations different from those intend-
ed could result in a hazardous situation.

Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease.

Slippery

handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unexpect-
ed situations.

Battery tool use and care

Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer.

A charger that is suitable for

one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
