5. Safety information

General power tool safety warnings
m WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-oper-
ated (cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive at-
mospheres, such as in the presence offlam-
mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools cre-
ate sparks which may ignite the dustor fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while op-
erating a power tool. Distractions cancause
you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Nev-
er modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) pow-
er tools. Unmodified plugs and matching out-
lets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or ground-
ed surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
