EN 26
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radia-
tors, ranges and refrigerators. 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 conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not misuse the cord for carrying, suspending or unplugging the power
tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Dam-
aged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, only 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 the power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock.
g) Hold the device only by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting
a „live“ wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool „live“ and could give
the operator an 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 infl u-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Wear personal protective equipment and always wear safety goggles. Wearing
protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental start-ups. Ensure the power tool is switched off before con-
necting it to the power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your fi 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 per-
sonal 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) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or
long hair may become entangled 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 overload the device. 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.
