Workplace safety
• Keep your work area clean and well illuminated.
Untidy or unlit work areas can result in accidents.
• Do not operate the electric tool in an environ-
ment where there is a risk of explosions and
where there are inflammable liquids, gases or
dust. Electric tools produce sparks which could set
the dust or vapours alight.
• Keep the electric tool out of the reach of chil-
dren and other persons. If there is a distraction,
you may lose control of the appliance.
Electrical safety
• The connector plug from this electric tool must
fit into the socket. The plug should never be
altered in any way. Never use adapter plugs
together with earthed electric tools. Unaltered
plugs and correct sockets reduce the risk of an
electric shock.
• Avoid bodily contact with earthed surfaces
such as pipes, heating, ovens and fridges. The
risk of electric shock is increased if your body is
earthed.
• Keep the tool out of the rain and away from
moisture. The ingress of water into an electric tool
increases the risk of an electric shock.
• Do not use the cable to carry the electric tool,
to hang it up or to pull it out of the socket. Keep
the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges and
moving parts of the appliance. Damaged or
entangled cables increase the risk of an electric
shock.
• If you are working outdoors with an electric
tool, only use extension cables which are de-
signed specifically for this purpose. Using spe-
cially designed outdoor extension cables, the risk
of electric shock is reduced.
• If operation of the electric tool in a damp envi-
ronment can not be avoided, use a earthleakage
circuit-breaker. The earth-leakage circuit-breaker
reduces the risk of an electric shock.
Warning! This electric tool generates an electromag-
netic field during operation. This field can impair ac-
tive or passive medical implants under certain condi-
tions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly
injuries, we recommend that persons with medical
implants consult with their physician and the manu-
facturer of the medical implant prior to operating the
electric tool.
Safety of persons
• Be careful, watch what you are doing and use
an electric tool sensibly. Do not use the tool if
you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
when using the electric tool can result in serious
injuries.

• Wear personal protection equipment and al-
ways wear safety goggles. Wearing personal pro-
tection (such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes,
safety helmet or ear protection, depending upon
the type and use of the electric tool) reduces the
risk of injury.
• Make sure that the appliance cannot start up
accidentally. Ensure that the electric tool is
switched off before you connect it to the power
supply and/or insert the battery, or pick up or
carry the tool. If your finger is on the switch whilst
carrying the electric tool or if you connect the appli-
ance to the mains when it is switched on, this can
lead to accidents.
• Remove keys and wrenches before switching
on the electric tool. A tool or key which comes
into contact with rotating parts of the appliance can
lead to injuries.
• Avoid abnormal working postures. Make sure
you stand squarely and keep your balance at
all times. In this way, you can control the electric
tool better in unexpected circumstances.
• Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothes and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing,
jewellery or long hair can get trapped in moving
parts.
• If vacuuming devices and draining devices can
be fitted, make sure that these are correctly at-
tached and correctly used. The use of a dust ex-
traction system can reduce the danger posed by
dust.
Usage and treatment of the electric tool
• Do not overload the appliance. Use the correct
tool for your work. You will be able to work bet-
ter and more safely within the given performance
boundaries.
• Do not use an electric tool with a defective
switch. An electric tool that cannot be switched
on or off is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Pull the plug out of the socket and/or remove
the battery before making any adjustments to
the appliance, changing accessories or put the
appliance down. This safety measure prevents
starting the electric tool unintentionally.
• Keep unused electric tools out of the reach of
children. Do not allow people who are not fa-
miliar with the appliance or who have not read
these instructions to use the appliance. Electric
tools are dangerous if they are used by inexperi-
enced people.
• Clean your electric tool carefully. Check wheth-
er moving parts are functioning properly and
not jamming, whether parts are broken or dam-
aged enough that the functioning of this electric
tool is affected. Have damaged parts repaired
before using the appliance. Many accidents are
caused by badly maintained electric tools.
