Safety instructions
3.1.3 Use and handling of the
electrical tool
■
Do not overload the power
tool. Use the appropriate
power tool for the job you
are doing. Using the appro-
priate power tool will enable
you to work more effectively
and safely in the specified
performance range.
■
Do not use a power tool if it
has a defective switch. A
power tool that can no longer
be switched on or off is dan-
gerous and must be repaired.
■
Disconnect the plug from
the socket and/or remove
the battery before you make
adjustments to the appli-
ance, replace parts or put
the power tool away. This
precautionary measure will
prevent the power tool from
starting inadvertently.
■
Keep unused power tools
out of the reach of children.
Do not allow people to use
the power tool if they are
not familiar with it or have
not read these instructions.
Power tools are dangerous if
they are used by inexperi-
enced people.
■
Look after power tools and
the insertion tool with care.
Check whether moving

parts function perfectly and
do not stick, whether there
are any broken parts or
parts that are damaged in
such a way that the function
of the power tool is im-
paired. Have damaged parts
repaired before using the
power tool. Many accidents
are caused by failure to main-
tain power tools properly.
■
Keep cutting tools sharp
and clean. Carefully main-
tained cutting tools with
sharper cutting edges are less
likely to stick and are easier to
control.
■
Use power tools, accesso-
ries, insertion tools, etc. ac-
cording to these instruc-
tions. When doing so, take
account of the working con-
ditions and the activity to
be undertaken. Using power
tools for applications other
than the intended purpose
can result in dangerous situa-
tions.
■
Keep the grips and grip sur-
faces dry, clean and free
from oil and grease. Slippery
grips and grip surfaces pre-
vent safe operation and con-
trol of the power tool in un-
foreseen situations.
