2.1
Workplace safety
a) Keep your work area clean and well
illuminated.
Untidiness and unlit work areas can result in
accidents.
b) Never use the power tool in potentially ex-
plosive environments containing flammable
liquids, gases or dusts.
Power tools generate sparks which can ignite
dust or vapours.
c) Keep children and other persons away from
the power tool during use.
A moment's distraction can cause you to lose
control of the machine.
2.2
Electrical safety
a) The connecting plug of the power tool must
fit in the plug socket. The plug must not be
modified in any way. Do not use adapter
plugs in conjunction with power tools with
protective earth conductor.
Unmodified plugs and properly fitting plug sock-
ets reduce the risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed sur-
faces such as pipes, heaters, cookers and
refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of an electric shock if
your body is earthed.
c) Keep power tools away from rain and
moisture.
The ingress of water into a power tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.
d) Do misuse the cable in any way by using it to
carry or hang up the power tool or to pull the
plug out of the socket. Keep the cable away
from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving ma-
chine parts.
Damaged or kinked cables increase the risk of
an electric shock.
e) When working with a power tool outdoors,
use only extension leads that are suitable for
outdoor use.
Use of an extension lead suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If the use of the power tool in a damp en-
vironment is unavoidable, use a residual-
current circuit breaker.
Use of a residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB
with 10 mA maximum tripping current) reduces
the risk of an electric shock.
2.3
Safety of people
a) Always work carefully, attentively and sensi-
bly when using a power tool. Do not use the
power tools if you are tired or are under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while using the power
tool can result in serious injuries.
b) Wear personal protective equipment and
always wear goggles.
The wearing of personal protective equipment,
such as dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, hel-
met or ear protectors, depending on the type
and application of the power tools, reduces the
risk of injuries.
c) Avoid accidental switching on of the power
tool. Ensure that the power tool is switched
off before connecting it to the mains pow-
er supply and/or connecting the battery and
before picking up or carrying the tool.
If you have your finger on the switch when car-
rying the power tool or you connect the tool to
the power supply when it is switched on, this can
lead to accidents.
d) Remove the adjusting tools or wrenches
before switching on the power tool.
A tool or wrench in a rotating part of the tool can
result in injuries.
e) Avoid abnormal postures when working.
Ensure you are standing firmly and maintain
your balance at all times.
This will enable you to control the power tool
better in unexpected situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, cloth-
ing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery and long hair can get
caught in moving parts.
