General Safety Directions for
Power Tools
WARNING! Read all safety
notices, instructions, illustra-
tions and technical data that
have been provided with this
power tool. Omissions in the
compliance with safety directions
and instructions can cause electrical
shock, fire and/or severe injuries.
Retain all safety directions and in-
structions for future use.
The term „power tool" in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool).
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well
lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite ac-
cidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as
in the presence of flammable
Iiquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power
tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) 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-
fied 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 re-
frigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to
rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
d) 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 moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) 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.
f) If operation of the power tool in
a damp environment is unavoid-
able, please use a residual cur-
rent circuitry. The use of a residual
current circuitry reduces the risk of an
electric shock.
