General safety instructions
Read all warnings, safety instructions and other directives. Failure to follow all the instructions and
safety instructions can result in the risk of electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury. Save
these instructions and safety instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in all the
warnings below refers to your mains-powered (corded) or battery-powered (cordless) power tool.
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 power tools. You can easily lose
control of the tool if you are distracted.
Electrical safety
Check that the mains voltage corresponds to the rated voltage on the type plate.
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 moisture. There is a greater risk of electric shock if water gets
into a power tool.
Be careful with the power cord. Never use the power 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 or tangled power cords increase the risk of electric shock.
