SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below 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 work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
•
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
•
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. 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
·
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.
·
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
·
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
·
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
·
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
·
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock
·
NOTE The term "residual current device (RCD)" may be replaced by the term "ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)" or "earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)".
Personal safety
·
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
·
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
·
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying
power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
·
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
·
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
·
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
·
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.
Power tool use and care
·
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.
·
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool 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.
