GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER TOOLS
WARNING! Read all instructions.
WARNING: Always switch off the appliance when non-working.
WARNING: Always remove the plug from the socket when not using the device, when replacing
the nozzles or during maintenance of the device.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded)
power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
Save these instructions for future reference!
1. Work area
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable liquids, •
gasses or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite dust and fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose•
control.
2. Electrical safety
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Unmodied plugs and •
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with not earthed or not grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators and refrigerators•
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is not earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of•
electric shock.

2. Electrical safety
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Unmodied plugs and •
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with not earthed or not grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators and refrigerators•
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is not earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of•
electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, 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.•
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.•
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.•
Always use tool in conjunction with a residual circuit breaker device.•
The use of a residual circuit breaker device 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.•
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.•
Use safety equipment. •
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the o position before plugging in.•
Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the•
switch on invites accidents.
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.
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 before making any adjustments, changing accessories,•
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures 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 misalignment 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 and in•
the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
