safety recommendations
CAUTION! Make sure you have read
and understood all recommendations.
Failure to observe the following recom-
mendations may result in electric shock,
cause fire and / or serious injuries. The term
"power tool", used in this manual refers to the
tools equipped with a power supply cord or a
battery.
Working space
• The workstation should be kept tidy and well-lit.
Disorder at the workstation and inadequate lighting
may result in accidents.
• Do not use power tools in environment exposed
to the risk of explosion, e.g. near flammable liquid
vapours, gases or flammable particles in the form of
dusts. During operation, sparks are generated, which
may ignite dust or vapours.
• Do not allow children and unauthorised persons
near places where operations with the use of an
electric tool are carried out. Third parties may distract
the operator's attention, and he may loose control over
the tool.
Electric safety recommendations
• The tool plug should always be inserted to an
appropriate socket. This reduces the risk of electric
shock. Do not use plug adapters with grounding
contacts.
• Avoid touching grounded items, such as metal pipes,
heaters, cookers and refrigerators. If the worker's body
comes into contact with a grounded item, the danger of
electric shock increases.
• Protect the power tool against rain and moisture.
Penetration of water into the tool increases the danger
of electric shock.
Noise
General
• Do not use the power supply cable for purposes
other than designed. Under no circumstances should
one use the cable to carry the tool or pull it; also, it is
forbidden to switch off the tool by pulling the power
supply cable. Protect the cable against heating,
contact with kerosene-based bodies, with sharp
edges or mobile parts of the tool. A power cable that
is damaged or spliced increases the danger of electric
shock.
• When working in open air, use extension cords
designed for this type of work, which will reduce the
danger of electric shock.
Personal protection recommendations
• Be cautious when working with power tools, and
carefully plan your actions. Do not use the tool when
fatigued, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medicines. Careless handling may result in serious

injuries.
• Use personal protection equipment. Always wear
protective goggles. When necessary, use respirators,
non-slipping boots, hard hats and earplugs. The use
of personal protection equipment is one of the factors
that reduce the risk of injuries.
• Avoid incidental activation of power tools. Before
inserting the plug, make sure that the power switch is in
OFF position. When carrying the tool, take your fingers
off the main switch, which will reduce the possibility of
incidental activation.
• Before switching on the tool, remove any wrenches
and other objects from its rotating parts. A wrench left
in the rotating unit may result in serious injuries.
• Do not apply excessive force, take a stable position
and always try to keep balance - this will facilitate
control over the tool.
• Do not wear loose clothes or freely-hanging
jewellery. Hair, parts of garment and gloves should
be protected against contact with moving parts of the
power tool.
• If the tool is equipped with a dust collection device,
make sure that the device has been activated and
used properly. Use of such devices helps reduce the
concentration of dust at the workstation.
Use and handling of power tools
• The persons with lowered psychophysical or mental
aptitudes as well as children can not operate the power
tool, if they are not supervised or instructed about use
of the power tool by a person responsible for their
safety.
• Do not overload the tool. Power tools are to be used
only in operations, to which they have been designed,
which will ensure safety and help achieve better
results.
• Do not use power tools with a damaged power
switch. A tool that cannot be switched on and off in a
controlled manner is potentially dangerous and must
be repaired immediately.
• Before adjustment operations, replacement of
attachments, and during storage, remove the power
tool plug from the mains socket. This eliminates the
risk of the tool being unintentionally activated.
• The tool should be stored out of children's reach.
Do not allow the use of power tools by persons who
have not read this manual and are inexperienced.
