Electrical safety rules
ATTENTION
When using electrical tools, the following safety instructions
should be observed to prevent the risk of electric shock,
personal injury and fire. Read and observe these instructions
carefully before using the tool.
•
It is recommended for increased electrical safety to use
a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping current of not
more than 30 mA. Always check your RCD every time you use it.
Consult a reliable electrician.
WARNING
The use of an RCD or other circuit breaker unit does not
release the operator from the safety instructions and safe
working practices given in this manual.
•
The main voltage must correspond to the one marked
on the labels and on this manual. Do not use other sources of
power.
•
Before inserting the plug in the main socket, make sure that
the socket ratings are correct and correspond to those indicated
on the rating label on the appliance.
•
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. This increases risk of electric
shock if your body is grounded.
CAUTION
Touching electrified parts may cause death by electric shock
or burn.
•
Never move the appliance by pulling at the cables.
•
Do not abuse the cord. Keep it away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts.
•
Always guide the connection line safely.
•
Do not use power tools near flammable liquids or gases.
•
Always disconnect the appliance from the mains supply
before transporting it to other places.
CAUTION
The appliance should always be switched off at the mains
before disconnecting any plug and socket connector or
extension cables.
•
Never pass the appliance over the extension cable while the
tool is working. Make sure you always know where the cable is.
•
Do not wire an extension cable directly into your device
yourself. Instead, take the device to your nearest authorized
Service Centre.
•
To avoid danger, damaged power cord should be replaced
by manufacturer or its agent, or similar qualified person.
•
Immediately unplug the tool when its cable is damaged or
cut.
ATTENTION
DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Consider working area
environment. Do not expose power tools to rain. Do not use
power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit
and dry. Try to prevent the device from getting wet or being
exposed to humidity. Do not leave it outside overnight. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
•
The power supply cable should be checked regularly and,
before using it, make sure the cable is not damaged or worn out.
If the cable is not in good condition, do not use the appliance;
take it to an authorized service centre.
•
When tool is used outdoor, only use an extension cable that
is suitable for outdoor use and which is marked for this specific
use. Keep it away from the working area, from damp, wet or oily
surfaces and away from heat and flammable materials.
•
Avoid any accidental starting: make sure that the power
switch (if present) is in the «off» position, before plugging the
tool in.
•
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool
on.
•
Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn the tool on
or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
WARNING
During the use of power tools, some dust containing chemicals
known to cause cancer, may occur. Some of these chemicals are:
lead from lead based paints, crystalline silica from bricks and
cement and other masonry products, arsenic and chromium
from chemically treated lumber and other dangerous products. If
dust is present, your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals, any time you do pulverulent operations,
work in a well ventilated area and work with approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
