5. General safety information

WARNING! Read all safety information, instructions, il-
lustrations and technical data for this electric tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" used in the safety instructions
refers to mains-powered electrical tools (with a mains
cable) and battery-powered electrical tools (without a
mains cable).
1) Workplace safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Disorganised
and unlit work areas can result in accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive at-
mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while op-
erating a power tool. Distractions may cause you
to lose control of the device.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Nev-
er modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not use the cable for another purpose, for
example, carrying or hanging the power tool or
pulling the plug out of the socket. Keep the ca-
ble away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
device parts. Damaged or coiled cables increase
the risk of an electric shock.
If you work with an electric tool outdoors, only
e)
use extension cables that are also permitted
for outdoor use. Using an extension cable suita-
ble for outdoor use reduces the risk of an electric
shock.
f) If you cannot avoid using the electrical tool in
a wet environment, use a fault-current circuit
breaker. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock.
