• In the event of power interruption and whene-
ver the product is put down, make sure that
the locking button is unlocked and, if not,
unlock. Otherwise the product may switch on
unexpectedly when the power is restored.
• Do not misuse the cable by using it to carry
the product, to hang it up or to pull the plug
out of the socket. Keep the cable away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving machine parts.
Damaged or wound cables increase the risk of an
electrical shock.
• In the event that the connection cable is
damaged, it may only be replaced by a speci-
alist.
• If you wish to use an extension cable, ensure
that the cable is suitable for the purpose and
has a sufficient cross-section. Otherwise this
may cause a loss of performance in the product
and lead to overheating of the cable. If you are
unsure, contact a specialist.
• 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 you cannot avoid using an electrical tool in
a damp environment, ensure you use a resi-
dual current device with a trigger current of
30 mA or less. Use of an RCD reduces the risk
of electric shock. NOTE: The term "residual cur-
rent device (RCD)" may be replaced by the term
"ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)" or "earth
leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)".
• Do not force the product. Use the appropriate
power tool for the task in hand. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that can-
not be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack before
making any settings, changing accessories,
or storing the product.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the product accidentally.
• Store power tools that are not in use out of
the reach of children. Do not allow persons
unfamiliar with these operating instructions or
who have not read these operating instructions,
to use the product.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrai-
ned users.

• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. Have any damaged parts
repaired before using the product.
Many accidents are caused by badly maintained
power tools.
• Use the power tool, accessories and other
tools etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions. Take account of the working conditions
and the task to be carried out.
• Use of the power tool for purposes for which
it was not intended may result in a hazardous
situation.
• Remove any adjusting keys or wrenches
before turning the product on. A wrench or a
key left attached to a rotating part of the product
may result in personal injury.
• Avoid switching on accidentally. Ensure that
the product is switched off before you connect it
to the power supply or carry it anywhere.
When carrying the product, having your finger on
the switch or the unit switched on and connected
to the power supply, may lead to accidents.
