sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed
surfaces as pipes, heaters, ovens and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body earthed.
c) Keep the tool out of the rain. The
penetration of water into a power tool
increases the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not use the cable to carry or hang
up the tool or to pull the plug out of
the socket. Keep the cable away from
heat, oil and sharp edges or moving
parts of the tool. Damaged or tangled
cables increase the risk of electric
shock.
e) When operating a power tool out-
doors, use exclusively extension ca-
bles that are approved for outdoor-
use. The use of an extension cable that is
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk
of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Always pay attention to what you do
and apply reasonable care when work-
ing with a power tool. Do not use the
tool when you are tired or under the
influence of medication, drugs or alco-
hol. When working with power tools even
a short moment of inattentiveness may
result in severe injury.
b) Wear personal protection equipment
and always wear eye protection (safe-
ty goggles). Wearing personal protection
equipment as a dust mask, nonslip safety
shoes, safety helmet or ear protectors
(depending on the type and use of the
tool) reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid unintentional activation. Ensure
that the electrical tool is switched off
before you connect it to the power
supply and/or the battery, pick it up,
or carry it. If you have your finger on the
switch while carrying the electrical tool or
connect the device to the power supply
with the switch activate, then this may
cause accidents.
d) Avoid unintentional operation. Make
sure that the switch is in 'OFF' posi-
tion before pulling the plug from the

mains socket. When carrying the tool
with your finger on the on/off switch or
connecting the tool to the mains supply
with the switch in 'ON' position, this may
result in accidents.
e) Remove adjustment tools or wrenches
and the like before you switch the tool
on. A wrench or another tool that is inside
or on a turning part of the tool may cause
injury.
f) Do not overestimate your abilities.
Take care of a safe footing and keep
your balance at all times. This will allow
you to better control the tool in unex-
pected situations.
g) Wear suitable clothes. Do not wear
wide clo-thing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothes and gloves clear of all
moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery
or long hair may get caught in moving
parts.
h) If dust extraction/collection devices
are provided make sure that they are
connected and used properly. The use
of these devices reduces hazards caused
by dust.
a) Do not overtax the power tool. Use the
power tool intended for your type of
work in each case. The use of the suit-
able power tool within the stated range of
performance makes working more effec-
tive and safer.
b) Do not use a power tool with a dam-
aged switch. A power tool that cannot be
switched on or off any more is dangerous
and must be repaired.
c) Pull out the plug connector from the
socket and/or remove the battery be-
fore you change the device settings,
change accessories, or put away the
device. These care instructions prevent
the device from starting unintentionally.
d) Store power tools out of the reach of
children. Do not allow persons to use
the tool if they are not familiar with the
tool or these instructions. Power tools
are dangerous if used by inexperienced
persons.
