Work area safety
• Keep your work area clean and tidy. Disorganised
and unlit work areas can result in accidents.
• Do not work with the device in an explosive environ-
ment where flammable liquids, gases or dusts may
be located. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and other people away while using the
electric tool. Distractions may cause you to lose control
of the device.
Electrical safety
Attention!
The following basic safety measures must be observed
when using power tools for protection against electric
shock, and the risk of injury and fire. Read all these
notices before using the power tool and store the safety
instructions well for later reference.
• The device connecting plug must match the sock-
et. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed devices. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfac-
es, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
• Keep the device away from rain and moisture. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
• Do not use the cable for another purpose, for ex-
ample, carrying or hanging the device or pulling the
plug out of the socket. Keep the cable away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving device parts. Dam-
aged or coiled cables increase the risk of an electric
shock.
• If you work with an electric tool outdoors, only use
extension cables that are also permitted for outdoor
use. Using an extension cable permitted for outdoor
use reduces the risk of an electric shock.
• Connect the electric tool to the mains via a socket
outlet with a maximum fuse rating of 16A. We rec-
ommend the installation of a residual current device
with a nominal tripping current of no more than 30
mA. Seek advice from your electrical installer.
Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use the device while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication.
• A moment of carelessness while operating the elec-
trical device may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will re-
duce personal injuries.
• Wear hearing protection. Excessive noise can result
in a loss of hearing.
