WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury,
user must read instruction manual.
For your own protection and for the
protection of your power tool pay atten-
tion to all parts of the text that are
marked with this symbol!
General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and
all instructions. Failure to follow the warn-
ings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and
instructions for future reference! The term
"power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(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
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) 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 matching outlets will reduce risk of elec-
tric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radia-
tors, ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
