General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.Failure
to follow the warningsand instructions may result in
electric shock,  re and/or serious injury. Save all war-
nings and instructions for future reference.
The term „power tool“ in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (cordepower tool orbattery-opera-
ted (cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of ammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite thedust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while ope-
rating a power tool.Distractions cancause you to
lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do notuse any
adapter plugs with earthed (groundepower
tools. Unmodi ed plugs andmatching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators,ranges and refri-
gerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body isearthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. Water entering a power toolwill increase
the risk of electric shock.
d) 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.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable foroutdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual currentdevice
(RCprotected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the
risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) 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 in uence ofdrugs, alcohol or medi-
cation. A moment of inattention while operating
power toolsmay result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protectiveequipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protectionused for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the o -position beforeconnecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your  nger on the switch or energising power tools
that havethe switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrenchor a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables bettercontrol
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothingand gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelle-
ry or long hair can becaught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collectionfacilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection canreduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct po-
wer tool for your application. Thecorrect power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) Do not use the po
w
er tool if the switch does not
turn it on and o . Any power toolthat cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from thepower tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storingpower tools. Such pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the powertool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of child-
ren and do not allow personsunfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
