5. General power tool safety warnings
Warning! Read all safety information and instruc-
tions! Failure to observe safety information and in-
structions can result in electric shock, fire and/or se-
rious injuries.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "electric tool" used in the safety instructions
refers to mains-powered electrical tools (with a mains
cable) and battery-powered electrical tools (without
a mains cable).
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 at-
mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c.) Keep children and bystanders away while op-
erating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
Electrical safety
a.) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Nev-
er 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.) 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.
c.) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.

pulling the plug out of the socket. Keep the ca-
ble away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
device parts. Damaged or coiled cables increase
the risk of an electric shock.
use extension cables that are also suitable for
outdoor use. Using an extension cable suitable
for outdoor use reduces the risk of an electric
shock.
If you cannot avoid using the electrical tool in
a wet environment, use a fault-current circuit
breaker. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock.

Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or med-
ication. A moment of carelessness when using
electrical tools can result in serious injuries.
