5. Safety instructions
m WARNING - Read all safety information, instruc-
tions, illustrations and technical data for this elec-
tric tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "power tool" used in the safety instructions
refers to mains-powered electrical tools (with a mains
cable) and battery-powered electrical tools (without a
mains cable).
Work area safety
Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Clut-
a)
tered or dark areas invite accidents.
b)
Do not operate power tools in explosive at-
mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c)
Keep children and bystanders away while op-
erating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
Electrical safety
a)
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Nev-
er modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified 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 elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c)
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. 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 in-
crease the risk of electric shock.
e)
When operating 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 operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
