The term machine in the warnings
u
refers to your mains-operated (cor-
ded) machines or battery-operated
(cordless) machines.
Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit.
u
Cluttered or dark areas invite acci-
dents.
Do not operate the machine in ex-
u
plosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Machines create
sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
Keep children and bystanders
u
away while operating the machine.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control over the machine. Never op-
erate the machine while people, es-
pecially children or pets, are nearby.
Electrical safety
The plug of the machine must
u
match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodi-
fied plugs and matching outlets will
reduce the risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed
u
or grounded surfaces, such as
pipes, radiators, ranges and refri-
gerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.

u
or wet conditions. Penetration of

chine. Keep cord away from heat,
oil, sharp edges and moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords in-
crease the risk of electric shock.
When operating a machine out-
u
doors, use an extension cord suit-
able for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
When operating the machine in
u
damp environments is unavoid-
able, use a residual current device
(RCD). The use of a residual current
device (RCD) reduces the risk of
electric shock.

u
ing and use common sense when
