1 SAFETY REGULATIONS
All local safety regulations in force must be observed.
Read the operating instructions carefully and follow the in-
structions laid down in them in order to avoid risks.
1. Safety at the workplace
a) Keep your workplace clean and well lit.
Disorder or unlit workplaces may result in accidents.
b) Never use the tool in hazardous areas that contain
ammable liquids, gases or dusts. Power tools
generate sparks that can ignite the dust or vapors.
c) Keep children and other persons away when using
the power tool. You can lose control of the tool if you are
distracted.
2. Electrical Safety
a) The tool plug must t into the socket. The plug may
not be modied in any form. Do not use adaptor
plugs together with protective-earthed tools.
Unmodied plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of
an electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such
as pipes, heating elements, stoves and refrigerators.
The risk through electric shock increases if your body is
earthed.
c) Keep the equipment away from rain and moisture.
The risk of an electric shock increases if water penetrates
electrical equipment.
d) Do not misuse the mains lead by carrying the tool
by the lead, hanging it from the lead or by pulling
on the lead to remove the plug. Keep the lead away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving tool parts.
Damaged or twisted leads increase the risk of an electric
shock.
e) If you work outdoors with a power tool, only use
extension cables suitable for outdoor use. The use of
an extension lead that is suitable for outdoors reduces the
risk of an electric shock.
f) ) If you cannot avoid using the tool in a damp
environment, use a residual current operated
circuit-breaker. Using a residual current operated circuit-
breaker avoids the risk of electric shock.
3. Safety of Persons
a) Be attentive. Pay attention to what you are doing
and work sensibly with a power tool. Do not use the
tool if you are tired or under the inuence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. Just a moment of inattentiveness
while using the tool can lead to serious injuries.
b) Wear personal safety equipment and always wear
safety goggles. Wearing personal protective equipment,
such as dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet
or ear protection, depending on the type of power tools,
reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid accidental starting-up. Ensure that the switch
is in the “OFF” position before inserting the plug
into the socket. Accidents can occur if you carry the
power tool while your nger is on the switch or if you
connect the power tool to the power supply which it is on.
d) Remove setting tools or wrenches before switching
on the power tool. A tool or wrench that is in a rotating
tool part can lead to injuries.
e) Avoid an unnatural posture. This ensures that you can
control the tool better in unexpected situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear wide clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothes and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g) This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
4. Careful Handling and Use of Power Tools
a) Do not overload the tool. Use the power tool
designed for the work that you are doing. You work
better and safer in the specied performance range if you
use the suitable power tool.
b) Do not use power tools whose switch is defective. A
power tool that cannot be switched on or o is dangerous
and has to be repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket before carrying
out tool settings, changing accessories or putting
the tool away. This precautionary measure prevents
unintentional starting of the tool.
d) Store unused power tools so that they are
inaccessible to children. Do not let persons use the
tool who are not familiar with it or who have not
read these instructions. Power tools are dangerous
when they are used by inexperienced persons.
e) Take proper care of your tools. Check whether the
moving parts function trouble-free and do not jam,
whether parts are broken or damaged so that the
tool function is impaired. Have damaged parts repaired
before using the tool. Many accidents have their origin in
power tools that have been maintained badly.
f) Use the power tool, accessories, insert tools, etc. in
accordance with these instructions and in a fashion
specied for this special tool type. Take the working
conditions and the activity to be carried out into
consideration. The use of power tools for purposes other
than the intended ones can lead to dangerous situations.
