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

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 medi-

cation.

A moment of inattention while operating

power tools may result in serious personal injury.

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.

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 energising power tools

that have theswitch on invites accidents.

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

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times.

This enables better control of

the power tool in unexpected situations.

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

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) Power tool use and care

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application.

The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at the

rate for which it was designed

Do not use the power tool if the switch does

not turn it on and off.

Any power tool that cannot

be controlled with the switch is dangerous and

must be repaired.

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 mea ures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

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

Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-

ment or binding of moving parts, breakage

of parts and any other condition that may

affect the power tool's operation. If damaged,

have the power tool repaired before use.

Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained power

tools.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges

are less likely to bind and are easier to control

Use the power tool, accessories and tool

bits etc. in accordance with these instructions,

taking into account the working conditions and

the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool

for operations different from those intended could

result in a hazardous situation.

5) Service

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified

repair person using only identical replacement

parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the power

tool is maintained.

Wear ear protectors with impact drills.

Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.

Loss of control can cause personal injury.

Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces

when performing an operation where the

cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its

own cord.

Contact with a "live" wire will also make

exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and

shock the operator.

For your own protection and the protec-

tion of your power tool, observe the

passages marked by this symbol!

Keep all enclosed documentation for future refer-

ence, and pass on your power tool only together

with this documentation.

Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any

adjustments or servicing are performed.

Beware of gas/water pipes and electric cables!

Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the

switch when the plug is removed from the mains

socket or in case of a power cut.

Keep hands away from the rotating tool!

Remove chips and similar material only with the

machine at standstill.

Caution must be exercised when driving screws

into hard materials (driving screws with metric or
