Safety instructions

WARNING. Read and understand all instructions. Failure to

follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the
warnings below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power
tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Save these instructions
Work area

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas

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.

Electrical safety

• 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 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 outdoor

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord

suitable for outdoor use 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 safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety

equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.

• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-

position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.

• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning

the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a

rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at

all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.

Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.

• If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities ensure that these are
connected and properly used. Use of these devices can

reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool

for your application. The correct power tool will

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
