Electric safety
The plug of the power supply cable must fi t the mains socket. Do not modify the plug. Do not use any adapters whatso-
ever in order to adapt the plug to the socket. Unmodifi ed plug which fi ts the socket reduces the risk of an electric shock. Avoid
contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, heaters and refrigerators. Grounding of the body increases the risk of an
electric shock. Do not expose electric tools to precipitation or humidity. Water and humidity which gets into the electric tool
increases the risk of an electric shock. Do not overload the power supply cable. Do not use the power supply cable in order
to carry the tool or to connect and disconnect the plug from the mains socket. Avoid contact of the power supply cable
with heat, oils, sharp tools and moving elements. Damage to the power supply cable increases the risk of an electric shock.
In case work is realised outside closed areas, it is necessary to use extension cords designed for applications outside
closed areas. Using a correct extension cord permits to reduce the risk of an electric shock.
Personal safety
Commence work in good physical and psychological conditions. Pay attention to what you do. Do not work if you are
tired or under eff ects of medicines or alcohol. Even a moment's inattention during work may lead to serious injuries. Always
use individual means of protection. Always wear goggles. Using individual means of protection, such as dust-masks, protec-
tive shoes, helmets and hearing protections permits to reduce the risk of serious injuries. Avoid accidental activation of the
tool. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position, before you connect the tool to the mains. Holding the tool with a fi nger
on the switch or connecting an electric tool when the switch is in the ON position may lead to serious injuries. Before you turn an
electric tool on remove all the spanners and other tools, which have been used for adjustments. A spanner left on rotating
elements of the tool may lead to serious injuries. Keep your balance. Maintain an appropriate position. It will permit to control
the electric tool in case of unpredicted situations during its operation. Use protective clothes. Do not wear loose clothes or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothes and gloves away from moving elements of the electric tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair may get caught on moving elements of the tool. Use dust extractors or dust containers, if the tool is equipped with
any. Make sure they are properly connected. Using of dust extractors permits to reduce the risk of serious injuries.
Safety precautions while using the electric tool
Before the battery is installed, make sure the switch is off . Installation of the battery when the switch is on may lead to accidents.
Use solely the charger recommended by the manufacturer. Using a charger designed for another type of battery may be a cause of fi re.
The electric tool must be operated exclusively with the battery indicated by the manufacturer. Using another battery may be a
cause of fi re or injuries.
When the battery is not used, it must be stored away from such metal objects as paper clips, coins, nails, screws or other small
metal elements, which might short-circuit the terminals. Short-circuited terminals of the battery may cause burns or fi re.
Under adverse circumstances liquid may leak from the battery; avoid any contact. In case of accidental contact with the liquid,
rinse it with water. In case of eye contact, seek medical. The liquid leaking from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
During work when the tool may touch a hidden live conductor, the electric tool must be held by insulated handles. The installed bit in case
of contact with a live conductor may conduct electricity to the metal elements of the tool, which may cause electric shock to the operator.
Repairs
Have the tool repaired solely by authorised workshops, where original spare parts are used. This will ensure the adequate
safety of operation of the electric tool.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
During work with the hammer drill it is required to use hearing protection, since exposure to noise may lead to hearing
impairment.
Use the tool with the additional handles provided. A loss of control may lead to injuries of the operator.
While realising tasks during which the attached tool may come into contact with a hidden live electric wire hold power toll
by insulated handles. If the attached tool touches a live wire, the metal elements of the power tool may cause electric shock to the
operator of the power tool.
PREPARATION FOR WORK
ATTENTION! All the operations mentioned in this point must be realised with the power supply off .
- the battery must be disconnected from the tool!
Safety recommendations for battery loading
Attention! Before loading may start make sure the body of the charger, the cable and the plug are not broken or damaged. It
is prohibited to use a damaged loading dock and charger! For the purpose of loading batteries only the charging dock and the
charger provided may be used. Using another charger may be a cause of fi re or damage the tool. Batteries may be charged only
in a dry room, protected from unauthorised persons, particularly children. Do not use the charging dock and the charger without
permanent supervision of an adult! If it is necessary to leave the room where loading is taking place, it is required to disconnect the
