2. General Safety Instructions
WARNING! Read all safety notifications and instructions. Failure to comply with the safety
notifications and instructions provided may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious injury. The term "power tool" used below covers both mains-operated
power tools (with mains lead) and accumulator-operated power tools (without
mains lead).
1. Safety at the workplace
a) Keep your workplace clean and well lit. Disorder or unlit workplaces may result in
accidents.
b) Never use the tool in hazardous areas that contain flammable liquids, gases
or dusts. Power tools generate sparks that can ignite the dust or vapors.
c) Keep children and other persons away when using the power tool. You can
lose control of the tool if you are distracted.
2. Electrical Safety
a) The tool plug must fit into the socket. The plug may not be modified in any
form. Do not use adaptor plugs together with protective-earthed tools.
Unmodified plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heating
elements, stoves and refrigerators. The risk through electric shock increases if
your body is earthed.
