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.
