5. Safety instructions
General power tool safety warnings
WARNING Read all safety information and instructions. Failure to observe safety information and instructions can result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injuries.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "electrical 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
- Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
- Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
- Keep children and other people away while using the electric tool. Distractions may cause you to lose control of the device.
Electrical safety
- Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never 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.
- Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
- Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water penetrating an electric device increases the risk of an electric shock.
- Do not use the cable for another purpose, for example, carrying or hanging the power tool or pulling the plug out of the socket. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving device parts. Damaged or coiled cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
- If you work with an electric tool outdoors, only use extension cables that are also suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
- 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.
WARNING! This power tool generates an electromagnetic field during operation. This field can impair active or passive medical implants under certain circumstances. In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with medical implants consult with their physician and the manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operating the power tool.
Personal safety
- Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use an electric tool if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of carelessness when using electrical tools can result in serious injuries.
- Wear personal protective equipment and always safety goggles. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, safety helmet 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 rechargeable battery, picking up or carrying the tool. Keeping your finger on the switch or having the device switched on when you connect it to the power supply may result in accidents.
- Remove any adjusting tools or spanners/keys before turning the power tool on. A tool or spanner that is located in a rotating device part may result in injuries.
- Avoid abnormal postures. 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 hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
- If dust extraction and collection devices can be mounted, make sure that they are connected and used properly. Use of dust extraction can reduce dust-related hazards.
- Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
- Do not overload the device. 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.
-
Remove the plug from the socket and/or remove the battery before setting the device, changing accessories or putting the device away. These precautionary measures will prevent the electric tool from starting unintentionally.
- Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and Do not let people use the device if they are not familiar with it or if they have not read these instructions. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
- Maintain power tools. Check whether moving parts function properly and do not get stuck and whether parts are broken or are damaged and thus adversely affect the electric tool function. Have damaged parts repaired before using the device. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
- Always keep your 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, Take 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.
- Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Service
- Only have your power tool repaired by qualified specialists and only with original spare parts. This ensures that safety of the electric tool is maintained.
Safety instructions for hammers
- Wear hearing protection. Excessive noise can result in a loss of hearing.
- Use the additional handles provided with the device. Loss of control can lead to injuries.
- When performing work during which the tool attachment can meet with concealed power lines or its own mains cable, hold the device by the insulated gripping surfaces. Contact with a live wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool live and could give the operator an electric shock.
Store the safety instructions safely.
Residual risks
Even when this electric tool is operated properly, residual risks still remain. The following hazards may arise in connection with the design and construction of this power tool:
- Lung damage if suitable dust protection mask is not worn.
- Hearing damage if suitable hearing protection is not worn.
- Damage to health resulting from hand/arm vibration if the device is used over an extended period of time or if it is not properly operated and maintained.
