Personal Safety - Cotech Z1J-TD10-13E-UK Bedienungsanleitung

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 what you do and use common sense when using electrical hand
tools. Never use an electrical hand tool if you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. One moment of not paying attention while using
an electrical hand tool may result in serious injury.
b) Use protective equipment. Always use safety glasses. Using protective
equipment such as a face mask, slip resistant protection shoes, a helmet and ear
defenders when needed decreases the risk of injury.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Make sure that the switch is set to OFF before you
connect the device to the wall socket. Never carry an electrical hand tool with
one finger on the trigger or never connect the hand 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 hand tool. A service tool
forgotten on a rotating part of the electrical hand tool may result in injury.
e) Do not overreach. Make sure you stand steady and well balanced
at all times. This gives better control in unexpected situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose fitting clothes or jewellery.
Keep hair, clothes and gloves away from movable parts. Loose fitting clothes,
jewellery or long hair could get caught in movable parts.
g) If the equipment for suctioning or collecting dust is available make sure
it is connected and used properly. Using technical aid may decrease dust related
hazards.
4) Use and maintenance of the electrical hand tools
a) Do not overdrive the hand tool. Use a hand tool suitable for the work you are to
perform. The correct electrical hand tool will perform the task better and safer if
used at the correct feed rate.
b) Never use the electrical hand tool if the switch does not work properly to turn
on and shut off the tool. All electrical hand tools that can not be operated by
the switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Unplug the lead from the wall socket before making any adjustments, changes of
accessories or storing the electrical hand tool away. These precautions reduces
the risk of unexpected start of the electrical hand tool.
d) Store electrical hand tools that are not being used out of reach from children.
Electrical hand tools can be dangerous if they get in the hands
of inexperienced users.
