Safe work
1. Keep the work area orderly
- Disorder in the work area can lead to accidents.
2. Take environmental influences into account
- Do not expose electric tools to rain.
- Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet environment.
- Make sure that the work area is well-illuminated.
- Do not use electric tools where there is a risk of fire or
explosion.
3. Protect yourself from electric shock
- Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g. pipes, ra-
diators, electric ranges, cooling units).
4. Keep other people away
- Do not let other people — especially children — touch the
electric tool or its cable. Keep them clear of the work
area.
5. Securely store unused electric tools
- Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry, elevated
or closed location out of the reach of children.
6. Do not overload your electric tool
- They work better and more safely in the specified output
range.
7. Use the correct electric tool
- Do not use low-output electric tools for heavy work.
- Do not use the electric tool for purposes for which it is
not intended. For example, do not use handheld circular
saws for the cutting of branches or logs.
- Do not use the electric tool to cut firewood.
8. Wear suitable clothing
- Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which can be-
come entangled in moving parts.
- When working outdoors, anti-slip footwear is recom-
mended.
- Tie long hair back in a hair net.
9. Use protective equipment
- Wear protective goggles.
- Wear a mask when carrying out dust-creating work.
10. Connect the dust extraction device.
- If connections for dust extraction and a collecting device
are present, make sure that they are connected and used
properly.
- When processing wood, materials similar to wood, and
plastics. Operation in enclosed spaces is only permitted
with the use of a suitable extraction system.
11. Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not in-
tended
- Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the outlet.
Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
12. Secure the workpiece
- Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the workpiece
in place. In this manner, it is held more securely than with
your hand.
- An additional support is necessary for long workpieces
(table, trestle, etc.) in order to prevent the machine from
tipping over.
- Always press the workpiece firmly against the working
plate and stop in order to prevent bouncing and twisting
of the workpiece.
13. Avoid abnormal posture
- Make sure that you have secure footing and always
maintain your balance.
