Retain all safety notices and instructions for future use.

Warning! Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the safety 

instructions and instructions can result in electric shock, fire and / or serious injury.

The term “power tool” used in the safety instructions refers to mains-operated power tools 

(with a power cord) and to battery-operated power tools (without a power cord).

a) Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or unlit work areas can lead to 

accidents.

b) Do not work with the power tool in an explosive environment in which there are 

flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools generate sparks that can ignite the 

dust or fumes. 

c) Keep children and other people away while using the power tool. If you are 

distracted, you can lose control of the device.

a) The power tool connector must match the socket. The plug must not be modified 

in any way. Do not use adapter plugs with protective earthed power tools. 

Unmodified plugs and matching sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heaters, stoves and 

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.

c) Keep power tools away from rain or moisture. Water getting into a power tool 

increases the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not misuse the cable to carry the power tool, to hang it up or to pull the plug 

from the socket. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts of 

the device. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk of electric shock.

e) If you work with a power tool outdoors, only use extension cables that are also 

suitable for outdoor use. Using an extension cord suitable for outdoor use will 

reduce the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating the power tool in a damp environment cannot be avoided, use a residual 

current circuit breaker. The use of a residual current circuit breaker reduces the risk 

of an electric shock.

a) Be attentive, pay attention to what you are doing, and use your common sense 

when working with a power tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or 

under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while 

using the power tool can result in serious injury.

b) Wear personal protective equipment and always protective goggles. Wearing 

personal protective equipment, such as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, hard 

hat or hearing protection, depending on the type and use of the power tool, reduces 

the risk of injuries.

c) Avoid unintentional start-up. Make sure that the power tool is switched off before 

you connect it to the power supply and / or the battery, pick it up or carry it. 

Accidents can occur if you have your finger on the switch while carrying the power 

tool or if you connect the device to the power supply when it is switched on.
