III - Safety instructions
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and
all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The "power tool" in this instruction refers to
your battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WARNING! This machine produces an
electromagnetic field during operation.
This field may under some circumstances
GB
interfere with active or passive medical
implants. To reduce the risk of serious or
fatal injury, we recommend persons with
medical implants to consult their physician
and the medical implant manufacturer before
operating this machine.
RESIDUAL RISKS! Even when the
power tool is used as prescribed it is
not possible to eliminate all residual
risk factors. The following hazards may
arise in connection with the power tool's
construction and design:
1. Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask
is not worn.
2. Damage to hearing if effective hearing
protection is not worn.
3. Damages to health resulting from vibration
emission if the power tool is being used
over longer period of time or not adequately
managed and properly maintained.

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 atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a) The charger's plug 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) Use battery operated tool only with
specifically designated battery pack. Use
of any other batteries may create a risk of
fire.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. 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 unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
e) 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.
f) 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.
3. Personal safety
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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 energizing power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
d) 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.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) 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.
g) 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.
4. Tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
power tool correctly for your application.
The correct use will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
couldn't on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of staring
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
