Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving device parts. Damaged or coiled cables
increase the risk of an electric shock.
• If you work with an electric tool outdoors, only use
extension cables that are also suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is una-
voidable, use a residual current device (RCD) pro-
tected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3. Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
carelessness when using electrical tools can result
in serious injuries.
• Wear personal protective equipment and always
safety goggles. Protective equipment such as a
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, safety helmet or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Make sure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to the pow-
er supply, picking up or carrying the electric tool.
Keeping your finger on the switch or having the de-
vice switched on when you connect it to the power
supply may result in accidents.
• Remove any adjusting tools or spanners/keys be-
fore turning the power tool on. A tool or spanner
that is located in a rotating device part may result
in injuries.
• Avoid abnormal postures. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If dust extraction and collection devices can be
mounted, make sure that they are connected and
used properly. Use of dust extraction can reduce
dust-related hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
• Do not overload the device. Use the correct pow-
er tool for your application. The correct power tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.

• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures re-
duce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and Do not let people use the device who are not
familiar with it or who have not read these instruc-
tions. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check whether moving parts
function properly and do not get stuck and whether
parts are broken or are damaged and thus adverse-
ly affect the electric tool function. Have damaged
parts repaired before using the device. Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, tool attachments and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions. Take in-
to account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a haz-
ardous situation.
5. Service
• Only have your power tool repaired by qualified spe-
cialists and only with original spare parts. This en-
sures that safety of the electric tool is maintained.
Warning! This power tool generates an electromagnet-
ic field during operation. This field can impair active or
passive medical implants under certain circumstances.
In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries,
we recommend that persons with medical implants
consult with their physician and the manufacturer of the
medical implant prior to operating the power tool.

saws
• When performing work during which the cutting de-
vice could come into contact with concealed power
lines, hold the electrical tool by the insulated handle
surfaces. Contact between the cutting tool and a
live power line can also electrify metal device parts
and lead to an electric shock.
