Safety instructions
ATTENTION!
Keep all the warning and safety instructions in a practical place for future reference.
Note: The term "power tool" in all the warning instructions specified hereafter means
mains-operated (corded) power tool.
Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas at the workplace invite accidents.
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.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control over the tool.
Electrical safety
Power tool plugs must match the mains 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 the risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of residual current device (RCD) reduces the risk of electric
shock.
Note: The term "residual current device" (RCD) may be substituted by the term "ground
fault circuit interrupter" (GFCI) or "earth leakage circuit breaker" (ELCB).
Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
Use personal means of protection. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used in conformity with the
working conditions will reduce personal injuries.
