General Safety Requirements – EN 60745-1
Warning!
Read all the instructions. Failure to adhere to the following instructions may lead to electric shocks, fires and/or
serious injury. The term "power tools" in the warning text below refers to your handheld mains operated or
battery operated tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
1) Work area
a) Keep the work area clean and well illuminated. Cluttered and poorly lit areas invite accidents.
b) Do not use power tools in explosive environments, e.g. near flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools generate sparks that can easily ignite dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and other bystanders away from the area where you are using the power tool.
Distractions can make you lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) The power tool's plug must fit correctly into the wall socket. Never modify the plug in any way.
Never use an adaptor together with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and suitable wall sockets
decrease the risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed objects, such as pipes, radiators, ovens or refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of receiving an electrical shock if your body is earthed.
c) Do not expose the power tool to rain or other wet conditions. If water gets inside a power tool
it increases the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the lead. Never use the lead to carry the tool or pull the plug from the wall socket.
Keep the lead away from heat, oil, sharp edges and movable parts. Damaged or tangled leads
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When using power tools outdoors, use an extension lead that is suitable for this purpose.
Use of an extension lead designed for outdoor use decreases the risk for electric shock.
f) If for some reason you must use a power tool in a wet environment, always connect it to the mains via an
earth-fault circuit breaker such as an RCD (residual current device). Using an RCD significantly
reduces the chances of you receiving an electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Pay attention to your actions and use common sense when using power tools. Never use power tools if you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. One moment of inattention while using
a power tool may result in serious injury.
b) Use protective equipment. Always wear safety glasses. Using protective clothing such as dust masks,
non-slip safety shoes, helmets and ear defenders when needed decreases the risk of injury.
c) Avoid accidental starts. Make sure that the power switch is set to OFF before plugging the tool into a wall
socket. Never carry a power tool with your finger on the trigger and never connect the power tool to a wall
socket when the switch is set to ON, since it may result in injury.
d) Remove all service tools/keys before switching on the power tool. A service tool left on a moving part of
the power tool may result in injury.
e) Do not overreach. Make sure you stand steady and well balanced at all times. This enables you to have more
control in case of unexpected events.
