General Safety Directions for
Power Tools
WARNING! READ ALL SAFETY
DIRECTIONS AND INSTRUC-
TIONS. Omissions in the compli-
ance with safety directions and inst-
ructions can cause electrical shock,
fi re and/or severe injuries.
Retain all safety directions and ins-
tructions 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 :
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of fl ammable Iiquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power
tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
Electrical safety :
CAUTION! The following states
how to avoid accidents and injuries
due to electric shock:
a) Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adap-
ter plugs with earthed (ground-
ed) power tools. Unmodifi ed plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock
b) Avoid body contact with earthed
or grounded surfaces, such as
pipes, radiators, ranges and ref-
rigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to
rain or wet conditions. Water ente-
ring a power tool will increase the risk
of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never
use the cord for carrying, pulling
or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a
damp location is unavoidable, use
a residual current device (RCD) pro-
tected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
