When using Power Tools, always observe the
safety regulations applicable in your country to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal
injury. Read the following safety instructions
before attempting to operate this product.
Keep these instructions in a safe place!
General
1 Keep work area clean
Cluttered areas and benches can cause accidents.
2 Consider work area environment
Do not expose Power Tools to humidity.
Keep work area well lit. Do not use Power Tools
in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
3 Guard against electric shock
Prevent body contact with earthed surfaces (e.g.
pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators).
For use under extreme conditions (e.g. high
humidity, when metal swarf is being produced,
etc.) electric safety can be improved by
inserting an isolating transformer or a (FI)
earth-leakage circuit-breaker.

tool or extension cord. Supervision is required
for those under 16 years of age.

marked accordingly.
6 Store idle tools
When not in use, Power Tools must be stored
in a dry place and locked up securely, out of
reach of children.

Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. They
can be caught in moving parts. Preferably wear
rubber gloves and non-slip footwear when
working outdoors. Wear protective hair
covering to keep long hair out of the way.
8 Wear safety goggles
Also use a face or dust mask in case the
operations produce dust or flying particles.
