Additional Safety Instructions - Sthor 79474 Manual Original

GB
Do not expose electric tools to precipitation or humidity. Water and humidity which gets into the electric tool increases the
risk of an electric shock.
Do not overload the power supply cable. Do not use the power supply cable in order to carry the tool or to connect and
disconnect the plug from the mains socket. Avoid contact of the power supply cable with heat, oils, sharp tools and
moving elements. Damage to the power supply cable increases the risk of an electric shock.
In case work is realised outside closed areas, it is necessary to use extension cords designed for applications outside
closed areas. Using a correct extension cord permits to reduce the risk of an electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RDC) protected supply. Use of
an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
Commence work in good physical and psychological conditions. Pay attention to what you do. Do not work if you are
tired or under effects of medicines or alcohol. Even a moment's inattention during work may lead to serious injuries.
Always use individual means of protection. Always wear goggles. Using individual means of protection, such as dust-masks,
protective shoes, helmets and hearing protections permits to reduce the risk of serious injuries.
Avoid accidental activation of the tool. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position, before you connect the tool to the
mains. Holding the tool with a finger on the switch or connecting an electric tool when the switch is in the ON position may lead
to serious injuries.
Before you turn an electric tool on remove all the spanners and other tools, which have been used for adjustments. A
spanner left on rotating elements of the tool may lead to serious injuries.
Keep your balance. Maintain an appropriate position. It will permit to control the electric tool in case of unpredicted situations
during its operation.
Use protective clothes. Do not wear loose clothes or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothes and gloves away from moving
elements of the electric tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair may get caught on moving elements of the tool.
Use dust extractors or dust containers, if the tool is equipped with any. Make sure they are properly connected. Using of
dust extractors permits to reduce the risk of serious injuries.
Operation of the electric tool
Do not overload the electric tool. Use a proper tool for the given purpose. A correct selection of the tool for the given work
will result in a more efficient and safer work.
Do not use the electric tool if the switch is not functioning properly. A tool which may not be controlled by means of a switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the mains socket before any adjustment, replacement of accessories or storage of the tool. It
will permit to avoid accidental activation of the electric tool.
Store the tool away from children. Do not allow untrained persons to operate the tool. An electric tool may be dangerous
in hands of an untrained person.
Make sure the tool is properly maintained. Check the tool in order to detects any unfitting or loose moving elements.
Check whether the elements of the tool are not damaged. In case any damaged elements of the tool are detected, they
must be repaired before the electric tool is operated. Many accidents are caused by improper maintenance of tools.
Cutting tools must be sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools are easier to control during work.
Use electric tools and accessories in accordance with the aforementioned instructions. Use the tool in accordance with
its purpose, taking into account the kind and conditions of work. Should the tool be used for other applications than the ones
it has been designed for, the risk of a dangerous situation increases.
Repairs
The tool may be repaired only by authorised service centres, which must use solely original spare parts. It will guarantee
a proper level of safety of operation of the electric tool.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

electrical tool by insulated handles. The inserted tool, when touching the live wire under voltage, may cause, that the metal
parts of the tool also will be energized, what can cause electric shock to the operator.
When you work you should use dust masks. Inhalation of the dust, which is generated during work, may be harmful. If the tool
is equipped with extraction of dust produced during operation, it must be mounted and used in accordance with the instructions.
