General safety instructions for
power tools
WARNING! Read all safety direc-
tions and instructions. Omis-
sions in the compliance with safety
directions and instructions can
cause electrical shock, fire and/or
severe injuries.
Retain all safety directions and instruc-
tions for future use.
The term "Power Tools" used in the safety
instructions refers to mains-operated
power tools (with power cord) and to bat-
tery-operated power tools (without power
cord).
Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit.
•
Cluttered or dark areas invite acci-
dents.
Do not operate power tools in ex-
•
plosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable Iiquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away
•
while operating a power tool. Dis-
tractions can cause you to lose con-
trol.
Electrical safety
• Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and match-
ing outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock
Avoid body contact with earthed or
•
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain
•
or wet conditions. Water entering
a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or un-
plugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entan-
gled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool out-
doors, use an extension cord suit-
able for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a
•
damp location is unavoidable, use
a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
• Connect the equipment to a plug
socket with a leakage-current-operat-
ed circuit breaker (FI switch), with a
rated current of not more than 30 mA.
• If the power cable for this equipment is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, a customer service agent
of the same or a similarly qualified per-
son in order to prevent hazards.
Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are do-
ing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or
