L Workplace-Safety
J Keep your workplace clean and tidy. Disorder
and poorly lit working areas can lead to accidents.
J Do not use this appliance in areas where there is
a potential danger of explosions of inflammable
liquids, gases or dust. Electrical hand tools produce
sparks which could ignite the dust or vapours.
J When using electrical tools, ensure
that children and other persons are
not in the close vicinity. In the event
of distraction you could lose control over the
appliance.

Electrical Safety
Avoid fatal risks through electrocution:
J The connecting plug of the appliance must fit
into the plug socket. Under no circumstances
may the plug be altered. Do not use adapter plugs
together with earthing-protected appliances.
Unmodified plugs and suitable wall sockets
reduce the risk of electrocution.
J Avoid bodily contact with earthed surfaces, such
as pipes, radiators, ovens and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electrocution if
your body is earthed.
J Warning! Protect the appliance from rain and
moisture. The entry of water into an electrical
appliance increases the risk of electrocution.
J Do not misuse the electrical cable, e.g. to carry
the appliance, suspend it in storage or to pull
the plug from the socket. Keep the cable away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or appliance com-
ponents in motion. Damaged plugs or tangled
cables increase the risk of electrocution.
J Caution! Regularly check the connections of
electrical hand tools and, if damage is discovered,
arrange for them to be repaired by a recognised
specialist.
J When working outdoors, only use extension
cables that are approved for use outdoors. The
use of an extension cable suitable for employ-
ment outdoors reduces the risk of electrocution.
J Damaged appliances, power cables
and plugs mean potential fatal injury
through electrocution.
Regularly check the condition of appliances,
power cables, power plugs and, if required,
chargers and power packs.
J Never take an appliance that has damaged
components into operation. Immediately remove
the plug from the socket.
J Warning! Never open the appliance.
J Arrange for repairs and parts-exchanges to be
carried out only by the service department or an
electrical specialist.

Safety of Personnel
J Always be attentive and always be aware of
what you are doing. Work sensibly with an
electrical hand tool. Do not use the appliance if
you are unconcentrated or tired or influenced
by drugs, alcohol or medications. Just a simple
lapse of attention in the use of an electrical
hand tool is sufficient to lead to serious injuries.
J Wear personal protection equipment
and always a pair of protective
glasses. The wearing of personal
protection equipment, such as a dust mask,
anti-slip safety shoes, protective gloves, hard
hat and hearing protectors, dependant on the
type of electrical hand tool and its employment,
reduces the risk of injuries.
J Avoid unintentional operation of the appliance.
Ensure that the switch is in the „OFF“ Position
before inserting the plug into the power socket.
If you have a finger on the ON / OFF switch when
carrying the appliance, or plug it in when it is
already switched on, this can lead to serious
accidents.
J Remove the adjusting tool or screwdriver before
switching the appliance on. A tool or key that
is in a revolving motor component could, when
thrown out, lead to potentially serious injuries.
J Do not overestimate yourself. Ensure that you
are standing firmly and maintain your balance
at all times. You can thus control the appliance
better, especially in unexpected situations.
