General safety instructions

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result 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) power tool
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1.2 Machine-related safety instructions
– Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory or fastener may contact hidden wiring. Cutting acces-
sory or fasteners contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the pow-
er tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

paired physical, sensory or mental abilities, or insufficient experience or knowl-
edge, providing they are supervised or have been instructed in the proper use of the
appliance and understand the risks involved. Children are not permitted to play with
the appliance. Children must not carry out cleaning tasks or maintenance unless

which generates dust, and protective gloves when working with raw materials and
when changing tools.
