wear safety glasses. The wearing of personal protec-
tive equipment such as dust masks, non-slip safety
shoes, safety helmets or ear protectors, appropriate
to the type of electrical power tool used and work un-
dertaken, reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid unintentional operation of the device. Check
that the electrical power tool is switched off before you
connect it to the mains, pick it up or carry it. Accidents
can happen if you carry the device with your finger on
the ON / OFF switch or with the device switched on.
d) Remove any setting tools or spanners before you
switch the device on. A tool or spanner left attached
to a rotating part of a device can lead to injury.
e) Avoid placing your body in an unnatural position.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times. By do-
ing this
you will be in a better position to control the device in
unforeseen circumstances.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves clear
of moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair
can become trapped in moving parts.
g) If vacuum dust extraction and collection devices
are fitted do not forget to check that they are properly
connected and correctly used. The use of these de-
vices reduces the hazard presented by dust.
4. Careful handling and use of electrical power tools
a) Do not overload the device. Always use an elec-
trical power tool that is intended for the task you are
undertaking.
By using the right electrical power tool for the job you
will work more safely and achieve a better result.
b) Do not use an electrical power tool if its switch is
defective. An electrical power tool that can no longer
be switched on and off is dangerous and must be re-
paired.
c) Pull the mains plug from the socket before you
make any adjustments to the device, change acces-
sories or when
the device is put away. This precaution is intended to
prevent you from unintentionall starting the device.
d) When not in use always ensure that electrical pow-
er tools are kept out of reach of children. Do not let
anyone use
the device if he or she is not familiar with it or has
not read the instructions and advice. Electrical power
tools are dangerous when they are used by inexperi-
enced people.
e) Look after the device carefully. Check that moving
parts are working properly and move freely. Check
for any
parts that are broken or damaged enough to detri-
mentally affect the functioning of the device. Have
damaged
parts repaired before you use the device. Many acci-
dents have their origins in poorly maintained electri-
cal power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools clean and sharp. Carefully main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to jam and are easier to control.
g) Use the electrical power tool, accessories, insert-
ed tools etc. in accordance with these instructions
and advice, and
the stipulations drawn up for this particular type of
device. In doing this, take into account the working
conditions
and the task in hand. The use of electrical power tools
for purposes other than those intended can lead to
dangerous situations.
Safety advice relating to cordless drill drivers
Hold the device by the insulated handle surfaces
when you are undertaking work where there is the
danger of the screw striking hidden electricity cables
or the device's mains lead. Contact of the screw with
a live wire could cause metal parts of the device to
become live and lead to electric shock.
Children or persons who lack the knowledge or expe-
rience to use the device or whose physical,
sensory or intellectual capacities are limited must
never be allowed to use the device without
supervision or instruction by a person responsible for
their safety. Children must never be allowed to play
with the device.
Securely support the workpiece. A workpiece held in
a clamp or vice is kept more securely in
place than one held by your hand.
POISONOUS DUSTS!
Harmful / noxious dusts generated from your work
represent a risk to the health of the person
operating the device and to anyone near the work
area. Wear safety glasses and a dust mask!
Do not drill any material containing asbestos. Asbes-
tos is a known carcinogen.
Hold the electrical power tool firmly. High reaction
torques may occur momentarily during tightening or
loosening of screws.
If the inserted tool jams, switch off the electrical pow-
er tool immediately. Be prepared for high reaction tor-
ques as they may cause kickback. The inserted tool
may jam if the electrical power tool is overloaded or is
held at an angle to the workpiece.
Before you carry out any tasks on the device, trans-
port or store it, make sure that the direction of rotation
switch is in the middle position (lock). To prevent the
device from starting up unintentionally.
Attention - Service lines!
Danger ! Take steps to ensure that you do not hit
upon any service lines (electricity, gas, water) when
working with electrical appliances. Check, if need be
with a service line detector, before you start to cut or
bore into a surface.
