General safety instruc-
tions for power tools
WARNING! Read all
safety directions and
instructions. Omissions in
the compliance with safety
directions and instructions
can cause electrical shock,
fire and/or severe injuries.
Retain all safety directions and
instructions for future use.
The term "Power Tools" used in the
safety instructions refers to mains-
operated power tools (with power
cord) and to battery-operated pow-
er tools (without power cord).
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean
and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power
tools in explosive atmos-
pheres, such as in the
presence of flammable
Iiquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystand-
ers away while operating
a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must
match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with
earthed or grounded sur-
faces, such as pipes, ra-
diators, ranges and refrig-
erators. There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power
tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord.
Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or un-
plugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
