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.
4. 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 unexpected
situations.
5. Wear suitable clothes. Do not wear wide clothing 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.

3.4 Careful handling and use of power tools

1. Do not overtax the power tool. Use the power tool
intended for your type of work in each case. The
use of the suitable power tool within the stated range of
performance makes working more effective and safer.
2. Do not use a power tool with a damaged switch. A
power tool that cannot be switched on or off any more
is dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Pull out the safety key before you change the
device settings, change accessories, or put away
the device. These care instructions prevent the device
from starting unintentionally.
4. 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.
5. Thoroughly maintain your power tool. Check
whether moving parts are working properly and are
not jamming/sticking, and whether parts are broken
or otherwise damaged in a way that affects the
function of the tool. Have damaged parts repaired
before using the tool. Many accidents are the result
of poorly maintained power tools.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Thoroughly
looked-after cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
jamming less often and are easier to guide.
7. Use power tools, accessories, add-on tools, etc.
in accordance with these instructions and in the
way prescribed for the respective type of tool. You
should also consider the working conditions and
the work to be carried out. The use of power tools for
purposes other than those intended for the respective
tool may result in dangerous situations.
3.5 Appropriate handling and use of battery-
operated power tools

manufacturer to charge the batteries. Charging units
are usually designed for certain types of batteries; if
