Safety rules
1. General safety rules
-WARNING- Read all instructions!
Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury. The term "power
tool" in all of the warnings listed below
refers to your mains operated (corded)
power tool or battery operated (cord-
less) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 Work area
a) Keep the work area clean and well
lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite
accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explo-
sive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids,
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.
1.2 Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the out-
let. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching out-
lets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
Printed: 07.07.2013 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5070806 / 000 / 00
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, pulling or unplug-
ging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or mov-
ing parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
e) When operating a power tool out-
doors, use an extension cord
approved for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.
1.3 Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alco-
hol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Safety equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off position before
plugging in. Carrying power tools
with your finger on the switch or
plugging in power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from mov-
ing parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
g) If devices are provided for the con-
nection of dust extraction and collec-
tion facilities, ensure these are con-
nected and properly used. Use of
these devices can reduce dust related
hazards.
1.4 Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your applica-
tion. The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be con-
trolled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the power tool accidental-
ly.
d) Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dan-
gerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc., in accordance with
these instructions and in the manner
intended for the particular type of
power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
1.5 Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
genuine replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power
