must be observed to avoid injuries and damage.
Please read the complete operating manual with due
care. Keep this manual in a safe place, so that the
information is available at all times. If you give the
equipment to any other person, give them these
operating instructions as well.

We accept no liability for damage or accidents which
arise due to non-observance of these instructions
and the safety information.

1. Safety regulations

GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS

CAUTION! Read the instructions in full.

Any errors made in following the instructions set out
below may result in an electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury. The term “electric tool” used below
refers to electric tools operated from the mains
power supply (with a power cable) and to battery
operated electric tools (without a power cable).

KEEP THESE REGULATIONS IN A SAFE PLACE!

WORK AREA

앬 Keep your work area clean and tidy.

Disorder and insufficiently illuminated work areas
can lead to accidents.

앬 Do not use this tool in a potentially explosive

environment containing combustible liquids,
gases or dust.

Electric tools generate sparks, which can in turn
ignite dust or vapors.

앬 Keep children and other persons away from

the electric tool while it is being used.

Allowing yourself to get distracted can cause you
to lose control of the tool.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

앬 The toolʼs connector plug must be able to fit

into the socket outlet. Do not modify the plug
in any way! Do not use adapter plugs in
conjunction with electrically grounded tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching socket outlets
reduce the risk of an electric shock.

앬 Avoid touching grounded surfaces, such as

those of pipes/tubes, heaters, cookers and
refrigerators.

There is an increased risk of getting an electric
shock if you are electrically grounded.

앬 Keep the tool away from rain and moisture/wet

conditions.

Penetration of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.

앬 Do not use the cable to carry the tool, hang it

up or pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the
cable away from sources of heat, oil, sharp
edges and moving tool parts.

Damaged or tangled cable increases the risk of an
electric shock.

앬 If you intend to use an electric tool outdoors,

ensure that you only use extension cable that
is approved for outdoor applications.

Using extension cable that is approved for outdoor
applications reduces the risk of an electric shock.

앬 Connect the electric tool to the mains power

supply (230V~, 50Hz) via a socket-outlet with
earthing contact with maximum 16A
protection. We recommend that you fit a
residual-current protection device with a
maximum nominal tripping current of 30 mA.
Seek the advice of your electrician.

PERSONAL SAFETY

앬 Be alert, work conscientiously and exercise

appropriate caution when using the electric
tool. Do not use the tool if you are tired or are
under the influence of drugs/medication or
alcohol.

One moment of carelessness or lack of attention
when using the electric tool can cause serious
bodily injury!

앬 Always wear personal protective equipment

(PPE), including safety goggles.

Wearing personal protective equipment such as a
dust mask, non-slip footwear, protective headgear
and ear muffs (depending upon the type of electric
tool and the particular application) reduces the risk
of sustaining injury.
