tools (with power cord) and to battery-op-
erated power tools (without power cord).
Work area safety
• Keep work area clean and well
lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite ac-
cidents.
• Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as
in the presence of lammable
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. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.

Electrical safety

Caution: This is how to avoid ac-
cidents and injuries by an electric
shock:
• 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. Unmodi-
ied 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 in-
creased risk of electric 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 electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never
use the cord for carrying, pull-
ing or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or mov-
ing parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• 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.
• If operating a power tool in a
damp location is unavoidable,
use a residual 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
(Residual Current Device), with a rated
current of not more than 30 mA.
If the power cable for this equipment is
•
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, a customer service agent
of the same or a similarly qualiied per-
son in order to prevent hazards.

Personal safety

Caution: This is how to avoid acci-
dents and injuries:
• Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the inlu-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medi-
cation. A moment of inattention white
operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equip-
ment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Protective equipment such as
