Safety
The term “power tool” used in the safety information and instructions
refers to power tools operated from the mains power supply (with a
power cable) and to battery operated power tools (without a power
cable).
1. Workplace safety
a) Keep your work area clean and well lit. Untidy or unlit work
areas can result in accidents.
b) Do not use this power tool in an area where there is a risk of
explosion and where there are inflammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools generate sparks that can ignite dust or vapors.
c) Keep children and other people away from the power tool
while you are using it. If you are distracted you may lose control
of the power tool.
2. Electrical safety
a) The plug on the power tool must fit into the socket. The
socket must not be modified in any way. Do not use adapter plugs
together with power tools with a protective earth. Unmodified
plugs and matching sockets will reduce the risk of an electric
shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes,
heating systems, stoves and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of suffering an electric shock if your body is
earthed.
c) Keep the power tool out of the rain and away from moisture.
The ingress of water into an electric power tool increases the risk
of an electric shock.
d) Do not use the power cable for a purpose for which it is not
designed, for example to carry the power tool, hang it up or
to pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the power cable away
from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Power cables that
are damaged or tangled increase the risk of an electric shock.
