2. Electrical safety
a) The mains plug on the device must match the
mains socket. The plug must not be modifi ed
in any way. Do not use an adapter plug with
devices fi tted with a protective earth. Unmodi-
fi ed 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.
c) Keep the device away from rain or moisture.
Water entering an electrical device in creases
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 lead away from heat, oil and
sharp edges. Do not touch the mains lead if it
becomes damaged or severed while you are
working, instead pull the mains plug out of the
mains socket immediately. 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 infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
One moment of carelessness when using the
device can lead to serious injury.
b) To avoid the danger of injury, burning and
damage to health:
Danger of burns! The glue and the nozzle can
reach temperatures of 200 °C. Do not touch
the nozzle or the glue. Keep other people and
animals away from the hot glue. On contact
with the skin, hold the aff ected part under run-
ning cold water for several minutes. Do not try
to remove the glue from the skin.
4. Careful handling and use
of electrical power tools
a) Pull the mains plug from the socket before
you make any adjustments to the device,
change accessories or when the device is put
away. This precaution is intended to prevent
you from unintentionally starting the device.
b) When not in use always ensure that electrical
power 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
inexperienced people. Let the device cool down
completely before putting it away. The hot noz-
zle can cause damage.
c) 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 detrimentally aff ect
the functioning of the device. Have damaged
parts repaired before you use the device.
Many accidents have their origins in poorly
maintained electrical power tools.
d) Always work with the mains lead leading away
from the rear of the device.
