3. Personal safety

a) Be alert at all times, pay attention to what
you are doing and act sensibly when you are
using an electric tool. Do not use an electric
tool if you are tired or under the infl uence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. Even a simple
lapse of attention while using an electrical hand
tool can lead to serious injuries.
b) Wear personal protection equipment, and
always wear a pair of protective goggles.
Wearing personal protective equipment, such
GB
as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, protective
MT
gloves, helmet or ear protectors (depending on
the type and use of the electric tool), reduces
the risk of injuries.
c) Avoid unintentional operation of the device.
Ensure that the electric tool is switched off
before connecting it to the power supply, pick-
ing it up or carrying it. Carrying the electric
tool with your fi nger on the ON/OFF switch or
connecting the device to the mains supply whilst
it is switched on can lead to serious accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting tools or spanners before
switching on the device. A tool or wrench
attached to a rotating device component can
cause serious injuries.
e) Avoid adopting an unusual posture. Ensure
you are standing fi rmly and keep your balance
at all times. This gives you much better control
over the electric tool, especially in unexpected
situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose cloth-
ing, jewellery and long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
g) If dust extraction and collecting equipment
can be fi tted, ensure that it is attached and
used properly. The use of an extraction system
can reduce hazards caused by dust.

4. Use and handling of the electric tool

a) Do not overload the device. Use the appropri-
ate electric tool for the job at hand. Using
the correct electric tool, will allow you to work
better and more safely within the specifi ed
performance range.
b) Never use an electric tool with a defective
switch. An electric tool that can no longer be
switched on or off is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket before
making adjustments to the device, changing
accessories or putting the device into storage.
These precautionary measures prevent acciden-
tal starting of the device.
d) Store unused electric tools out of the reach
of children Do not allow persons who are not
familiar with the device or who have not read
these instructions to operate the device.
Electric tools are dangerous if used by people
who are inexperienced.
e) Look after electric tools with care. Check to
see whether moving parts are functioning cor-
rectly and are not jamming, whether parts are
broken or damaged and that the functioning
of the electric tool is not impaired. Arrange for
damaged components to be repaired before
using the device. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained electric tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Care-
fully maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges jam less often and are easier to control.
g) Use the electric tool, accessories, insertion
tools, etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions. Take heed of the operating conditions
and the activities to be performed. The use
of electric tools for purposes other than their
intended purposes can result in dangerous
situations.

5. Service

a) Your electric tool should only be repaired
by qualifi ed specialists using original spare
parts. This ensures that your electric tool
remains safe.
