b Do not operate power tools in explosive at-

mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-

mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c Keep children and bystanders away while op-

erating a power tool. Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

2 Electrical safety

a Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Nev-

er modify the plug in any way. Do not use any

adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power

tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will

reduce the risk of electric shock.

b Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of elec-

tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-

ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase

the risk of electric shock.

d 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.

e 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.

f If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a residual current device

(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduc-

es the risk of electric shock.

3 Personal safety

a 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 med-

ication. A moment of inattention while operating

power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b 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 condi-

tions will reduce personal injuries.

c Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

switch is in the off-position before connecting

to power source and/or battery pack, picking

up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools

with your finger on the switch or energising power

tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key

left attached to a rotating part of the power tool

may result in personal injury.

e Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control

of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-

lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g If devices are provided for the connection of

dust extraction and collection facilities, en-

sure these are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related

hazards.

4 Power tool use and care

a Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application. The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at the

rate for which it was designed.

b Do not use the power tool if the switch does

not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot

be controlled with the switch is dangerous and

must be repaired.

c Disconnect the plug from the power source

and/or the battery pack from the power tool

before making any adjustments, changing ac-

cessories, or storing power tools. Such pre-

ventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

d Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-

dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with

the power tool or these instructions to oper-

ate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous

in the hands of untrained users.

e Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment

or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts

and any other condition that may affect the

power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the

power tool repaired before use. Many acci-

dents are caused by poorly maintained power

tools.

f Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges

are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits

etc. in accordance with these instructions,

taking into account the working conditions

and the work to be performed. Use of the pow-

er tool for operations different from those intend-

ed could result in a hazardous situation.

5 Battery tool use and care

a Recharge only with the charger specified by

the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for

one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire

when used with another battery pack.

b Use power tools only with specifically desig-

nated battery packs. Use of any other battery

packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

c When battery pack is not in use, keep it away

from other metal objects, like paperclips,

coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal

objects that can make a connection from one

terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-

nals together may cause burns or a fire.

d Under abusive conditions, liquid may be

ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-

tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If

liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medi-

cal help. Liquid ejected from the battery may

cause irritation or burns.

6 Service

a Have your power tool serviced by a qualified

repair person using only identical replace-

ment parts. This will ensure that the safety of the

power tool is maintained.
