Safety
Do not work with the power tool in areas subject to explosion
hazard where there may be flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools produce sparks, which can ignite dust or vapors.
Keep children and other persons well away while the power tool
is being used. If you are distracted, you could lose control of the
tool.
2. Electrical safety
Avoid physical contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
heaters, stoves and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is grounded.
Keep power tools away from rain and wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool increases the risk of electric shock.
3. Safety of persons

the utmost care when working with a power tool. Do not use
a power tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medications. A moment of inattentiveness while using
a power tool can lead to serious injuries.
Wear personal protective equipment and always wear safety
goggles. Wearing personal protective equipment such as non-slip
safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection, depending on what kind
of power tool is used and how it is used, reduces the risk of injuries.
Avoid starting up the power tool unintentionally. Make certain
that a power tool is turned off before connecting it to the power
supply and/or the battery, or before picking it up or carrying it.
When you are carrying the power tool, if you have your finger on the
switch or the tool is turned on and connected to the power supply,
this can lead to accidents.
Avoid unnatural body positions. Make sure you have a secure
footing and keep you balance at all times. This will allow you to
control the power tool better in unexpected situations.
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves well away from moving
parts. Loose clothing, jewelry or long hair can become caught
by moving parts.
