Electrical safety
1. Power tool plug must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in anyway. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electrical shock.
2. 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.
3. Do not expose the charger to rain or wet conditions and do not expose the tool to rain.
Eventual contact of water on the charger and machine may create a risk of electric shock or serious
damage.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
5. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
6. When operating a power tool out-doors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
7. If you cannot avoid using the tool or charger in wet conditions, use a power supply with an
RCD residual current circuit breaker. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Notice of using the tools
1. Do not overload the power tool. Use the power tool intended for your type of work in each
case. The use of the suitable power tool within the stated range of performance makes working
more effective and safer.
2. Do not use a power tool with a damaged switch. A power tool that cannot be switched on or off
any more is dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Pull the battery out of the socket before you adjust a tool, change accessories or put the tool
aside. This precaution avoids the unintentional start of the tool.
4. Store power tools out of the reach of children. Do not allow persons to use the tool if they
are not familiar with the tool or these instructions. Power tools are dangerous if used by
inexperienced persons.
5. Thoroughly maintain your power tool. Check whether moving parts are working properly
and are not jamming/sticking, and whether parts are broken or otherwise damaged in a way
that affects the function of the tool. Have damaged parts repaired before using the tool. Many
accidents are the result of poorly maintained power tools.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Thoroughly looked-after cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are jamming less often and are easier to guide.
7. Use power tools, accessories, add-on tools, etc. in accordance with these instructions and
in the way described for the respective type of tool. You should also consider the working
conditions and the work to be carried out. The use of power tools for purposes other than those
intended for the respective tool may result in dangerous situations.
Notice using cordless tool
1. Make sure that the machine is switched off before removing the battery. Removing the battery
with the starter switch ON may cause accidents and damage to the machine.
2. Only use charging devices recommended by the manufacturer to charge the batteries.
Charging units are designed for certain types of batteries; if used with other types there is a risk of
fire!
3. Only use batteries designed for your power tool. The use of other batteries may lead to injury and
risk of fire!
4. Keep unused batteries clear of paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects that may bridge the contacts. A short circuit between the battery contacts may lead to
burns or fire.
