m Important!
When using equipment, a few safety precautions 
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 inst-
ructions and the safety information.
1. Safety information
m CAUTION!
Read all safety regulations and instructions.
Any errors made in following the safety regula-
tions and instructions may result in an electric 
shock, re and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety regulations and instructions 
in a safe place for future use.
1. Workplace safety
a)  Keep your work area clean and well illu-
minated. Untidy or unlit work areas can result 
in accidents.
b)  Do not operate the electric tool in an en-
vironment where there is a risk of explo-
sions and where there are inammable 
liquids, gases or dust. Electric tools produ-
ce sparks which could set the dust or vapours 
alight.
c)  Keep the electric tool out of the reach of 
children and other persons. If there is a 
distraction, you may lose control of the appli-
ance.
2. Electrical safety
a)  The connector plug from this electric tool 
must t into the socket. The plug should 
never be altered in any way. Never use ad-
apter plugs together with earthed electric 
tools. Unaltered plugs and correct sockets 
reduce the risk of an electric shock.
b)  Avoid bodily contact with earthed sur-
faces such as pipes, heating, ovens and 
fridges. The risk of electric shock is increa-
sed if your body is earthed.
c)  Keep the tool out of the rain and away 
from moisture. The ingress of water into an 
electric tool increases the risk of an electric 
shock.
d)  Do not use the cable to carry the electric 
tool, to hang it up or to pull it out of the 
socket. Keep the cable away from heat, 
oil, sharp edges and moving parts of the 
appliance. Damaged or entangled cables 
increase the risk of an electric shock.
e)  If you are working outdoors with an 
electric tool, only use extension cables 
which are designed specically for this 
purpose. Using specially designed outdoor 
extension cables, the risk of electric shock is 
reduced. 
f)  If operation of the electric tool in a damp 
environment can not be avoided, use a 
earth-leakage circuit-breaker. The earth-
leakage circuit-breaker reduces the risk of an 
electric shock.
3. Safety of persons
a)  Be careful, watch what you are doing and 
use an electric tool sensibly. Do not use 
the tool if you are tired or under the inu-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A 
moment of inattention when using the electric 
tool can result in serious injuries.
b)  Wear personal protection equipment 
and always wear safety goggles. Wearing 
personal protection (such as dust masks, 
non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet or ear 
protection, depending upon the type and use 
of the electric tool) reduces the risk of injury.
c)  Make sure that the appliance cannot start 
up accidentally. Ensure that the electric 
tool is switched o before you connect 
it to the power supply and/or insert the 
battery, or pick up or carry the tool. If your 
nger is on the switch whilst carrying the elec-
tric tool or if you connect the appliance to the 
mains when it is switched on, this can lead to 
accidents.
d)  Remove keys and wrenches before swit-
ching on the electric tool. A tool or key 
which comes into contact with rotating parts 
of the appliance can lead to injuries.
e)  Avoid abnormal working postures. Make 
sure you stand squarely and keep your 
balance at all times. In this way, you can 
control the electric tool better in unexpected 
circumstances.
f)  Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear 
loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clo-
thes and gloves away from moving parts. 
Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can get 
trapped in moving parts.
g)  If vacuuming devices and draining de-
vices can be tted, make sure that these
