3. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ATTENTION!
Acquaint yourself with all warnings and safety instructions and with operation instructions for the power
tool.
ATTENTION!
Not adhering to warnings or safety instructions may result in injury by electrical shock, a fire and/or serious
injury.
ATTENTION!
Store all warnings and safety instructions in a practical location for future reference.
Note: The term "power tool" in all hereafter provided warnings is defined as an electric power tool powered
from the power grid (via a flexible power cord).
Safety in the work area
Keep the work area tidy and well lit. Untidiness and dark locations in the workplace are sources of accidents.
Do not use power tools in explosive atmospheres where flammable liquids, gases or dust are present. The
power tool generates sparks which could ignite dust or vapours.
When using power tools, keep children and other people away from the tools. If you become distracted, you
may lose control over the power tool.
Safety when working with power tools
The plug of the flexible power cord of power tools must match the mains socket. Never modify the plug in any
way. Never use any socket adapters with power tools that have a safety earth grounding connection. Plugs
that are not damaged by modifications and that correspond to the power socket will limit the danger of injury
by electrical shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed objects such as pipes, central heating units, cookers
and refrigerators. The risk of injury by electrical shock is greater when your body is connected to the ground.
Do not expose the power tools to rain, dampness or wetness. The entry of water into the power tool increases
the danger of injury by electrical shock.
Do not use the flexible power cord for other purposes. Never carry or pull the power tool by its power cord or
pull the plug out of the socket by the power cord. Protect power cord from heat, grease, sharp edges
and moving parts. Damaged or tangled power cords increase the danger of injury by electrical shock.
If the power tool is used outdoors, use extension cords suitable for outdoor use. Using extension cords
designed for outdoor use limits the risk of injury by electrical shock.
If you have to use power tools in wet environments, use a residual current device (RCD) in the power supply
circuit. The use of a residual current device (RCD) reduces the risk of injury by electrical shock.
Note: The "residual current device" (RCD) may be substituted for by the term "ground fault circuit
interrupter" (GFCI) or "earth leakage circuit breaker" (ELCB).
