• 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 match-
ing 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 elec-
tric 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.
•
If the supply cord of this power tool
is damaged, it must be replaced by
a specially prepared cord available
through the service organization.
•
If it is necessary to replace the con-
nection cable, we recommend that this
be performed by the manufacturer or
an authorised representative (e.g. au-
thorised workshop, customer service,
etc.).
•
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 entan-
gled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
•
When operating a power tool out-
doors, use an extension cord suit-
able 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 re-
duces the risk of electric shock. Con-
nect the appliance to a power socket
with a residual current circuit breaker
of rated residual current no more than
30 mA.
•
Use only approved power cable of
type H05RN-F, which are no more than
75 m in length and intended for use
outdoors. The conductor cross section
of the cord must be at least 2.5 mm
Always fully unroll a cable drum before
use. Check the power cord for dam-
age.
Personal safety
CAUTION: In this way you avoid
accidents and injuries:
•
Stay alert, watch what you are do-
ing 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, alco-
hol or medication. A moment of inat-
tention white operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
•
Wear personal protective equipment
and always wear safety glasses.
Wearing personal protective equip-
ment such as nonslip safety boots, cut
protection trousers, a hard hat or ear
protection reduces the risk of injuries.
•
Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the off-po-
sition before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, pick-
ing 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
