overheating.
• When an extension cable is required, you must ensure it
has the right ampere rating for your power tool and is
in a safe electrical condition.
• Ensure your mains supply voltage is the same as your
tool rating plate voltage.
• Your tool is double insulated for additional protection
against a possible electrical insulation failure within the
tool.
• Always check walls, floors and ceilings to avoid hidden
power cables and pipes.
• After long working periods external metal parts and
accessories could be hot.
