General safety instructions for electric tools
m WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
with this power tool.
Failure to observe the following information and in-
structions can result in electric shock, fire and/or se-
rious injuries.
Store all safety instructions and information for
future reference.
The term "electric tool" used in the safety instructions
refers to mains-powered electric tools (with a mains
cable) or battery-powered electric tools (without a
mains cable).
1) Work area safety
a) Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Dis-
organised or unlit work areas can result in acci-
dents.
b) Do not work with the electric tool in an explo-
sive environment where flammable liquids,
gases or dusts may be located. Electric tools
produce sparks that may ignite dust or vapours.
c) Keep children and other people away while
using the electric tool. Distractions may cause
you to lose control of the electric tool.

2) Electrical safety
a) The electrical tool's connection plug must fit
into the socket.
The plug may not be modified in any way. Do
not use an adaptor plug together with earthed
electric tools. Unmodified plugs and suitable
sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces,
such as pipes, heaters, ovens and refrigera-
tors. There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed.
c) Keep electric tools away from rain and mois-
ture.
Water entering an electric tool increases the risk
of an electric shock.
d) Do not use the connection cable for another
purpose, for example, carrying or hanging
the electric tool or pulling the plug out of the
socket. Keep the connection cable away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Dam-
aged or coiled connection cables increase the
risk of an electric shock.
e) If you work with an electric tool outdoors, only
use extension leads that are also suitable for
outdoor use. Using an extension lead suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of an electric shock.
f) If you cannot avoid using the electric tool in
a wet environment, use a residual current cir-
cuit breaker. Using a fault-current circuit breaker
reduces the risk of an electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Remain attentive, pay attention to what you
are doing and be sensible when working with
electric tools. Do not use an electric tool if
you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of careless-
ness when using electric tools can result in seri-
ous injuries.
b) Wear personal protective equipment and al-
ways wear safety goggles. Wearing person-
al protective equipment, such as dust masks,
anti-slip safety shoes, safety helmet or hearing
protection, depending on the type and use of the
electric tool, reduces the risk of injuries.
c) Avoid unintentional startup. Make sure that
the electric tool is switched off before you
connect it the power supply and/or battery,
pick it up or carry it. Keeping your finger on the
switch when you carry the electric tool or having
the electric tool switched on when you connect it
to the power supply may result in accidents.
d) Remove the setting tools or spanners before
switching on the electric tool. A tool or spanner
that is located in a rotating part of the electric tool
may result in injuries.
