d)
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A tool or spanner that
is located in a rotating device part may result in
injuries.
e)
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f)
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g)
If dust extraction and collection devices can
be mounted, make sure that they are connect-
ed and used properly. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
h)
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a sec-
ond.
Power tool use and care
a)
Do not overload the device. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b)
Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that can-
not be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
c)
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing pow-
er tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d)
Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e)
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
whether moving parts function properly and do
not get stuck and whether parts are broken or are
damaged and thus adversely affect the electric
tool function. If damaged, have the power tool re-
paired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.

f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
g)
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for op-
erations different from those intended could result
in a hazardous situation.
h)
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
Service
a)
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Safety instructions for drills
a)
The drill must be secured. An incorrectly se-
cured drill can move or topple and this can result
in injuries.
b)
The workpiece must be clamped or fastened
to the workpiece support. Do not drill into
workpieces that are too small to be securely
clamped. Holding the workpiece by hand can lead
to injuries.
c)
Do not wear gloves. Gloves can be caught by
rotating parts or drilling debris and thus cause in-
juries.
d)
Keep your hands away from the drilling area
whilst the electrical tool is running. Contact
with rotating parts or drilling debris can cause in-
juries.
e)
The drill must be turning before it makes con-
tact with the workpiece. Otherwise, the drill bit
can catch in the workpiece and this can result in
an unexpected movement of the workpiece and
cause injuries.
f)
If the drill becomes jammed, stop pressing
downwards and switch the electrical tool off.
Investigate and rectify the cause of the jam-
ming. Jamming can result in an unexpected move-
ment of the workpiece and can result in serious
injuries.
