General safety advice
MAKE SURE THAT YOU KEEP THESE
INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY ADVICE IN A SAFE
PLACE.

1. Your working area

a) Keep your working area clean and
clutter-free. Untidy or poorly lit working
areas can lead to accidents.
b) Do not work with the device
in potentially explosive
environments in which there
are inflammable liquids, gases or
dusts. Electrical power tools create sparks,
which can ignite dusts or fumes.
Keep children and other
c)
people away while you are
operating the electrical tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control of
the device.

2. Electrical safety

a) the mains plug on the device must
match the mains socket. the mains
plug must not be modified in any
way. Do not use an adapter plug
with devices fitted with a protective
earth. Unmodified mains plugs and matching
sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid touching earthed surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ovens and
refrigerators with any part of your
body. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed.
Keep the device away from
c)
rain or moisture. Water
entering an electrical device
increases the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not use the mains lead
for any purpose for which it
was not intended, e.g. to
carry the device, to hang up the
device or to pull the mains plug out
of the mains socket. Keep the mains
lead away from heat, oil, sharp
32 GB/MT
edges or moving parts of the device.
Damaged or tangled mains leads increase the
risk of electric shock.
e) When working outdoors with an
electrical power tool always use
extension cables that are also
approved for use outdoors. The use of
an extension cable suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a) Remain alert at all times, watch what
you are doing and always proceed
with caution. Do not use the device if
you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. One
moment of carelessness when using the device
can lead to serious injury.
b) Wear personal protective
equipment and always
wear safety glasses. The
wearing of personal protective 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
undertaken, reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid unintentional operation of the
device. Make sure that the switch
is in the "OFF" position before you
insert the mains plug into the socket.
Accidents can happen if you have been
carrying the device with your finger on the
switch or you have already switched the device
on before you connect it to the mains.
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) Do not overestimate your own
abilities. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. By doing this you will
be in a better position to control the device,
especially in unforeseen circumstances.
