WARNING: The vibration emission level will vary because of the ways in which a power tool can be used and may

increase above the level given in this information sheet. The vibration emission level may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched o or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signicantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect theoperator from the eects of vibration such as:maintain the tool and the accessories, keep thehands warm, organisation of work patterns. EN16

This side up General Power Tool Safety Warnings WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions.Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future refe

rence. The term „power tool“ in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool and battery-ope

rated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo

spheres, such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while opera

ting a power tool.Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adap

ter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied 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 refrige

rators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditi

ons. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car

rying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an ex

tension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) 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.

a) 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 inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protectiveequipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing pro

tectionused for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the o-position beforeconnecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) 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. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and ba

lance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or je

wellery. Keep your hair, clothingand gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) 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.
