Personal safety
• Stay alert. Pay attention to what you are doing, and use your
common sense when working with power tools. Never use power
tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention when using a power tool can
result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal safety equipment. Wear safety glasses.
• Depending on the type of tool and how it is used, safety
equipment such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, safety
helmets and ear protection reduce the risk of personal injury.
• Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the power switch is in the off
position before the battery is inserted in the tool or the tool is
lifted/carried.
• Carrying a power tool with your finger on the power switch, or
connecting a tool to the mains when the switch is in the ON
position, increases the risk of accidents and injuries.
• Remove adjuster keys/spanners or the like before the power tool is
turned on. Spanners or the like that are left in a rotating part of
the tool can cause personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Always maintain a firm footing and good
balance. This ensures better control over the power tool in
unexpected situations.
• Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose-fitting clothing, jewellery and long hair can get caught
in moving parts.
Using and looking after power tools
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for the
planned work. The tool does the job better and safer when used at
the rate for which it was designed.
