General Safety Directions for
Power Tools
WARNING! Read all safety direc-
tions and instructions. Omis-
sions in the compliance with safety
directions and instructions can
cause electrical shock, fire and/or
severe injuries.
Retain all safety directions and instruc-
tions for future use.
The term „power tool" in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
Work area safety
• Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite acci-
dents.
• Do not operate power tools in ex-
plosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable Iiquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool. Dis-
tractions can cause you to lose con-
trol.
Electrical safety
• Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never 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
• 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.
• Do not expose power tools to rain
or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of elec-
tric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or un-
plugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entan-
gled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool out-
doors, use an extension cord suit-
able 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 unavoidable, use a resid-
ual current device (RCD) protected
supply. Use of an RCD reduces the
risk of electric shock.
• Where possible, connect the equip-
ment only to a plug socket with a leak-
age-current-operated circuit breaker
(FI switch), with a rated current of not
GB CY
