SAFETY INFORMATION
Caution! When using electric tools it is
imperative to take the following basic safety
precautions in order to reduce the risk of electric
shock, injury and fire. Read and take note of
these instructions before you use this tool.
1. Keep your work area tidy
- An untidy work area invites accidents.
2. Check the working conditions
- Do not expose electric tools to rain. Never use
electric tools in damp or wet locations. Make
sure there is good lighting. Do not use electric
tools near flammable liquids or gases.
3. Guard against electric shock
- Avoid body contact with earthed components
such as pipes, radiators, cookers, refrigerators.
4. Keep children away!
- Do not allow other persons to touch the tool or
cable. Keep all persons out of your work area.
5. Store tools in a safe place
- When tools are not in use they should be stored
in a dry, locked room out of children's reach.
6. Do not overload your tools
- Tools work better and safer when used within
their quoted capacity range.
7. Use the right tool
- Never use tools or attachments with insufficient
power for the job in hand. Never use tools on
jobs for which they were not intended. For
example, do not use a hand-held circular saw to
cut down trees or lop off branches.
8. Wear suitable work clothes
- Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they
may get caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves
and non-slip shoes are recommended when
working outdoors. Wear a hair net if you have
long hair.
9. Wear safety goggles
- and use a dust mask when working on dusty
jobs.
10. Do not mis-use the cable
- Do not carry the tool by its cable or pull on the
cable to remove the plug from the socket-outlet.
Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
11. Secure your workpiece
- Use clamps or a vise to hold the workpiece
securely. This is safer than using your hand and
will enable you to operate the machine with both
hands.
12. Don't overreach
- Avoid abnormal working postures. Make sure
you stand squarely and keep your balance at all
times.

13. Look after your tools
- Keep your tools sharp and clean for better and
safer performance. Follow the instructions for
maintenance work and for changing any
attachments. Check the plug and cable regularly
and, if damaged, have them replaced by an
authorized specialist. Check the extension cable
regularly and replace it if damaged. Keep
handles dry and free from oil and grease.
14. Always pull out the power plug
- when the tool is not being used, before carrying
out any maintenance work and when changing
attachments such as blades, bits and cutters of
any kind.
15. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches
- Make sure that all keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from the tool before switching it on.
16. Avoid unintentional starting
- Never carry a tool with your finger on the switch
if it is connected to the power supply. Make sure
that the switch is in OFF position when inserting
the power plug.
17. When using an extension cable outdoors
- check that it is approved for outdoor duty and is
marked accordingly.
18. Be alert at all times
- Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate the tool if your mind is not
on your work.
19. Check the tool for damage
- Each time before re-using the tool, carefully
check that the guards or any slightly damaged
parts are working as intended. Check that the
moving parts are in good working order, that they
do not jam, and that no parts are damaged.
Make sure that all parts are fitted correctly and
that all other operating conditions are properly
fulfilled.
Unless otherwise stated in the operating
instructions, damaged guards and parts have to
be repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center. Never use any tool if its switch cannot be
turned off and on.
20. Important!
- For your own safety, use only accessories and
attachments which are listed in the operating
instructions or recommended or listed by the tool
manufacturer. The use of any accessory or
attachment other than those recommended in
the operating instructions or catalogue may
involve a risk of injury for you personally.
