6 GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
•
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Messy or unlit work areas can lead to accidents.
•
Do not use the power tool in an explosive environment with flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools generate sparks, which can ignite the dust or vapours.
•
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Never operate the machine while people, especially children, or pets are nearby. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
•
Do not use the device in bad weather if there is any risk of a lightning strike.
Electrical safety
·
Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heaters, ovens and fridges. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.
·
Keep power tools out of the rain and moisture. Water penetrating a power tool increases the risk of an electric shock.
Personal safety
·
Be alert. Be mindful of what you are doing and take care when working with a power tool. Do not use a power tool if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention during use of the power tool can lead to serious injuries.
·
Wear personal protective equipment and always safety goggles. Wearing personal protective equipment such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, a helmet or ear protectors
reduces the risk of injuries depending on the type and use of power tool.
· Avoid accidental start up. Ensure that the power tool is switched off before inserting the battery, lifting or carrying it. Touching the switch with your fingers while carrying the
power tool or inserting the battery while the power tool is on can lead to accidents.
·
Remove adjustment tools or wrench before switching on the power tool. A tool or key inside a rotating part of the device can lead to injuries.
· Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Walk, never run. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
·
Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose-fitting clothing, jewellery and long
hair can get caught in moving parts.
Careful handling and use of power tools
· Do not overload the tool. Use the right power tool for your task. You can work better and more safely within the specified performance range with the right power tool.
·
Do not use a power tool with a defective switch. A power tool which can no longer be switched on or off is dangerous and must be repaired.
·
Remove the battery before adjusting settings, replacing accessories or after use. The safety provisions prevent the power tool from starting accidentally.
·
Store all unused power tools out of the reach of children. Do not let persons use the device who are unfamiliar with it or who have not read these instructions. Power tools
are dangerous if they are used by inexperienced persons.
·
Carefully maintain your device. Check that the moving parts work correctly. Make sure that no part of the device is damaged. Check the assembly and all other elements
that could affect the operation of the device. If parts are damaged, you must have your device repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
·
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges get stuck less often and are easier to use.
·
Use power tools, accessories, tool bits, etc. according to their instructions. Consider the working conditions and work to be performed. The use of power tools for purposes
other than the intended uses can lead to dangerous situations.
Specific safety provisions for battery-powered devices
·
Before inserting the battery, make sure that the switch is either at "Off" or is locked. Inserting a battery into a switched-on device can lead to accidents.
·
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.
·
Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
·
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
·
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
