GENERAL POWER TOOLS SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING!!
Read all safety warnings and all in-
structions. Failure to follow all instruc-
tions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term ”power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1)WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite acci-
dents.
b)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.
c) Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a power tool. Dis-
BGX7

tractions 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 adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of elec-
tric shock.
b)Avoid body contact with grounded surfac-
es such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d)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.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for out-
door use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp lo-

6
cation is unavoidable, use a ground fault
circuit interrupter protected supply. Use of
a ground fault circuit interrupter reduces the
risk of electric shock.
3)PERSONAL SAFETY
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 influence 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. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before con-
necting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energizing power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
d)Remove any adjusting key or wrench be-

7
fore 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 balance at all times. This enables bet-
ter control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing
and 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 proper-
ly used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
4)POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b)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.

8
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety meas-
ures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d)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.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, break-
age 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.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g)Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-

9
tions, 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 hazard-
ous situation.
5)SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qual-
ified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.

gemeinsam mit schutzgeerdeten Geräten.
Unveränderte Netzstecker und passende
Netzsteckdosen erringern das Risiko eines
elektrischen Schlages.
b)Vermeiden Sie Körperkontakt mit ge-
erdeten Oberfl ächen, wie von Rohren,
Heizungen, Herden und Kühlschränken.
Es besteht ein erhöhtes Risiko durch elektri-
schen Schlag, wenn Ihr Körper geerdet ist.
c) Halten Sie Elektrogeräte von Regen oder
Nässe fern. Das Eindringen von Wasser
in ein Elektrogerät erhöht das Risiko eines

18
elektrischen Schlages.
d)Zweckentfremden Sie das Kabel nicht.
Verwenden Sie das Kabel niemals, um das
Gerät zu tragen, zu ziehen oder um den
Netzstecker aus der Netzsteckdose zu
ziehen. Halten Sie das Kabel fern von Hitze,

Geräteteilen. Beschädigte oder verwickelte
Kabel erhöhen das Risiko eines elektrischen
Schlages.
e) Wenn Sie mit einem Elektrowerkzeug im
Freien arbeiten, verwenden Sie nur Ver-
längerungskabel, die auch für den Außen-
bereich zugelassen sind. Die Anwendung
eines für den Außenbereich geeigneten
Verlängerungskabels verringert das Risiko
eines lektrischen Schlages.
f) Wenn der Betrieb des Elektrowerkzeuges
in feuchter Umgebung nicht vermeidbar
ist, verwenden Sie einen Fehlerstrom-
schutzschalter. Die Verwendung eines Feh-
lerstromschutzschalters verringert das Risiko
eines elektrischen Schlages.
3)SICHERHEIT VON PERSONEN
a) Seien Sie aufmerksam, achten Sie dar-
auf, was Sie tun, und verwenden Sie ein

19
