Work area safety
• Keep work area clean and well
lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable Iiquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
Electrical safety
• Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock
• Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain
or wet conditions. Water entering
a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
• When operating a power tool
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a
damp location is unavoidable, use
a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
• Where possible, connect the
equipment only to a plug socket with
a leakage-current-operated circuit
breaker (FI switch), with a rated
current of not more than 30 mA.
• If the power cable for this equipment
is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, a customer service
agent of the same or a similarly
qualified person in order to prevent
hazards.
Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you
are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention white operating
power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the off-
position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack,
