DANGER!
Warning: This power tool generates an electromagnetic
field during operation. Under certain circumstances, this
field may affect active or passive medical implants. To
reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, we recommend
that individuals with medical implants consult your physi-
cian and the manufacturer of the medical implant before
operating the machine.
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, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term „power tool“ in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluered or dark
areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, 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
operang a power tool. Distracons 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 (grounded) power
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
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
condions. 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 operang 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 operang a power tool in a damp locaon is unavoidable ,
use a residual current device (RCD) protected 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 operang a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are red or under
the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medicaon. A
moment of inaenon while operang power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protecve equipment. Always wear
eye protecon. Protecve equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protecon used for appropriate condions will
reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintenonal starng. Ensure the switch
is in the o-posion before connecng to power
source and/or baery 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 adjusng key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key le
aached to a rotang part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper foong and
balance at all mes. This enables beer control of
the power tool in unexpected situaons.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If dust extracon/collecon devices are provided
make sure that they are connected and used
properly. The use of a dust extracon device may
reduce risks caused by dust.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your applicaon. The correct power tool
will do the job beer and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.
b) Do not use the power 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 baery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such prevenve safety
measures reduce the risk of starng the power tool
accidentally.
