1 - SAFETY REGULATIONS

1.1 - General instructions

To reduce risks of injury, anyone using, installing,
repairing, maintaining, changing accessories or
working near this tool must read and understand
these instructions before performing any such
task. Failure to follow all instructions listed below,
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAREFULLY.

1.2 - Workplace hazards

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents. Do not
operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes. Keep bystanders,
children, and visitors away while operating power
tool. Distractions can cause the operator to lose
control.

1.3 - Electrical safety

The tools and electrical equipment must be
plugged into an outlet properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all relevant codes
and ordinances. Never remove the grounding
prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adaptor plugs. Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the
outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should
electrically malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a low resistance path to carry electricity
away from user.
Never replace the fuses by fuses of higher value.
Never replace fuses by a short-circuit. Avoid body
contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain and wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
02/2017
Do not abuse the cable. Never use the cable to
carry the tool or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep
cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts.
Replace damaged cables immediately. Damaged
cables increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an
outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W".
These cables are rated for outdoor use and
reduce the risk of electric shock.

1.4 - Personal safety

The operator must stay alert, watch what he/she
is doing and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off
before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger
on the switch or plugging in tools that have the
switch on invites accidents. Remove adjusting
keys or switches before turning the tool on. A
wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating
part of the tool may result in personal injury. Do
not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
all times. Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear impact-
resistant eye and face protection. Serious injury
can result from over-torqued or under-torqued
fasteners, which can break, or loosen and
separate. Released assemblies can become
projectiles. Assemblies requiring a specific torque
must be checked using a torque meter.
