conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cable. Never use the cable
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep the cable away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cables increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use
an extension cable suitable for outdoor
use. Use of an extension cable 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 an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
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 protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection (PPE).
