General Safety Rules
WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury, user must read and understand instruc-
tion manual.
WARNING! Read all instructions. 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, also machines and electric units. Only use the power
tool for the purpose for which it was intended, with the due attention to the general
safety and accident prevention regulations.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
A) Work area
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the pres-
ence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distrac-
tions can cause you to lose control.
B) 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. Unmodi-
ed plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. If the power tool
comes with an earthed wire, the plug may only be connected to an earthed
receptacle. At work sites, in damp surroundings, in the open or in the case of
comparable types of use, only operate the power tool off the mains using a 30
mA fault current protected switch (FI breaker).
b) 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.
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 unplug-
ging 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
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
C) 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 inu-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such
as dust mask, non skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off 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.
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 balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) 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.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices
can reduce dust related hazards.
h) Only allow trained personnel to use the power tool. Apprentices may only
operate the power tool when they are over 16, when this is necessary for their
training and when they are supervised by a trained operative.
D) Power tool use and care
a) 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.
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.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments,
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 misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired by a qualied expert
or by an authorised REMS after-sales service facility 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) Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece. This is safer
than holding it with your hand, and also it frees both hands to operate the equip-
ment.
h) 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 those intended could result in
a hazardous situation. All unauthorised modications to the power tool are
prohibited for safety reasons.
E) Battery tool use and care
a) Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting
the battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
b) Recharge only with the charger specied by the manufacturer. A charger
that is suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of re when used with
another battery pack.
c) Use battery tools only with specically designated battery packs. Use of
any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and re.
d) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that
can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals may cause bums or a re.
e) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery, avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or bums.
f) Do not use the battery/charger at battery/charger temperatures or ambient
temperatures of ≤ 5°C/40°F or ≥ 40°C/105°F.
g) Do not dispose defective batteries in the normal domestic waste. Take them
to an authorised REMS after-sales service facility or to a reputed waste
disposal company.
F) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
b) Comply with maintenance instructions and instructions on tool replace-
ments.
c) Check mains lead of power tool regularly and have it replaced by a qualied
expert or an authorised REMS after-sales service facility in case of damage.

Remarques générales pour la sécurité
ATTENTION ! Toutes les directives doivent être lues. Le non-respect des instructions
présentées ci-après peuvent entraîner un risque de décharge électrique, de brûlures
et/ou d’autres blessures graves. Le terme utilisé ci-après « appareil électrique » se
réfère aux outils électriques sur secteur (avec câble de réseau), aux outils électriques
sur accu (sans câble de réseau), aux machines et aux outils électriques. N’utiliser
l’appareil que pour accomplir les tâches pour lesquelles il a été spécialement conçu
et conformément aux prescriptions relatives à la sécurité du travail et à la prévention
des accidents.
CONSERVER PRECIEUSEMENT CES INSTRUCTIONS
A) Poste de travail
a) Maintenir le poste de travail propre et rangé. Le désordre et un poste de travail
non éclairé peut être source d’accident.
b) Ne pas travailler avec l’appareil électrique dans un milieu où il existe un
risque d’explosion, notamment en présence de liquides, de gaz ou de
poussières inammables. Les appareils électriques produisent des étincelles,
qui peuvent mettre le feu à la poussière ou aux vapeurs.
c) Tenir les enfants et des tierces personnes à l’écart pendant l’utilisation de
l’appareil électrique. Il y a un risque de perte de contrôle de la machine en cas
de distraction.
B) Sécurité électrique
a) La che mâle de l’appareil électrique doit être appropriée à la prise de
courant. La che mâle ne doit en aucun cas être modifée. Ne pas utiliser
d’adaptateur de che mâle avec un appareil électrique avec mise à la terre.
Des ches mâles non modiées et des prises de courant appropriées réduisent
le risque d’une décharge électrique. Si l’appareil est doté d’un conducteur de
protection, ne brancher la che mâle que sur une prise de courant avec mise à
la terre. Sur chantier, en plein air ou sur un autre mode d’installation, n’utiliser
l’appareil électrique qu’avec un dispositif de protection à courant de défaut de
30 mA (déclencheur par courant de défaut) sur réseau.
b) Eviter le contact avec des surfaces avec mise à la terre, comme les tubes,
radiateurs, cuisinières et réfrigérateurs. Il y a un risque élevé de décharge
électrique lorsque le corps est en contact avec la terre.
c) Tenir l’appareil électrique à l’écart de la pluie ou de milieux humides. La
pénétration d’eau dans un appareil électrique augmente le risque de décharge
électrique.
d) Ne pas utiliser le câble pour des ns auxquelles il n’a pas été prévu, notam-
ment pour porter l’appareil, l’accrocher ou pour débrancher l’appareil en
tirant sur la che mâle. Tenir le câble éloigné de la chaleur, de l’huile, des
angles vifs et des pièces de l’appareil en mouvement. Des câbles endom-
magés ou emmêlés augmentent le risque de décharge électrique.
e) Si vous travaillez avec l’appareil électrique à l’extérieur, n’utiliser que des
rallonges autorisées pour les travaux à l’extérieur. L’utilisation d’une rallonge
appropriée pour l’extérieur réduit le risque de décharge électrique.
C) Sécurité des personnes
a) Etre attentif, veiller à ce que l’on fait et se mettre au travail avec bon sens
si l’on utilise un appareil électrique. Ne pas utiliser l’appareil électrique en
étant fatigué ou en étant sous l’inuence de drogues, d’alcools ou de
médicaments. Un moment d’inattention lors de l’utilisation de l’appareil peut
entraîner des blessures graves.
b) Porter des équipements de protection individuelle et toujours des lunettes
de protection. Le port d’équipements de protection individuelle, comme un
masque respiratoire, des chaussures de sécurité anti-dérapantes, un casque de
protection ou une protection acoustique selon le type de l’utilisation de l’appareil
électrique, réduit le risque de blessures.

Remarques générales pour la sécurité
ATTENTION ! Toutes les directives doivent être lues. Le non-respect des instructions
présentées ci-après peuvent entraîner un risque de décharge électrique, de brûlures
et/ou d’autres blessures graves. Le terme utilisé ci-après « appareil électrique » se
réfère aux outils électriques sur secteur (avec câble de réseau), aux outils électriques
sur accu (sans câble de réseau), aux machines et aux outils électriques. N’utiliser
l’appareil que pour accomplir les tâches pour lesquelles il a été spécialement conçu
et conformément aux prescriptions relatives à la sécurité du travail et à la prévention
des accidents.
CONSERVER PRECIEUSEMENT CES INSTRUCTIONS
A) Poste de travail
a) Maintenir le poste de travail propre et rangé. Le désordre et un poste de travail
non éclairé peut être source d’accident.
b) Ne pas travailler avec l’appareil électrique dans un milieu où il existe un
risque d’explosion, notamment en présence de liquides, de gaz ou de
poussières inammables. Les appareils électriques produisent des étincelles,
qui peuvent mettre le feu à la poussière ou aux vapeurs.
c) Tenir les enfants et des tierces personnes à l’écart pendant l’utilisation de
l’appareil électrique. Il y a un risque de perte de contrôle de la machine en cas
de distraction.
B) Sécurité électrique
a) La che mâle de l’appareil électrique doit être appropriée à la prise de
courant. La che mâle ne doit en aucun cas être modifée. Ne pas utiliser
d’adaptateur de che mâle avec un appareil électrique avec mise à la terre.
Des ches mâles non modiées et des prises de courant appropriées réduisent
le risque d’une décharge électrique. Si l’appareil est doté d’un conducteur de
protection, ne brancher la che mâle que sur une prise de courant avec mise à
la terre. Sur chantier, en plein air ou sur un autre mode d’installation, n’utiliser
l’appareil électrique qu’avec un dispositif de protection à courant de défaut de
30 mA (déclencheur par courant de défaut) sur réseau.
b) Eviter le contact avec des surfaces avec mise à la terre, comme les tubes,
radiateurs, cuisinières et réfrigérateurs. Il y a un risque élevé de décharge
électrique lorsque le corps est en contact avec la terre.
c) Tenir l’appareil électrique à l’écart de la pluie ou de milieux humides. La
pénétration d’eau dans un appareil électrique augmente le risque de décharge
électrique.
d) Ne pas utiliser le câble pour des ns auxquelles il n’a pas été prévu, notam-
ment pour porter l’appareil, l’accrocher ou pour débrancher l’appareil en
tirant sur la che mâle. Tenir le câble éloigné de la chaleur, de l’huile, des
angles vifs et des pièces de l’appareil en mouvement. Des câbles endom-
magés ou emmêlés augmentent le risque de décharge électrique.
e) Si vous travaillez avec l’appareil électrique à l’extérieur, n’utiliser que des
rallonges autorisées pour les travaux à l’extérieur. L’utilisation d’une rallonge
appropriée pour l’extérieur réduit le risque de décharge électrique.
C) Sécurité des personnes
a) Etre attentif, veiller à ce que l’on fait et se mettre au travail avec bon sens
si l’on utilise un appareil électrique. Ne pas utiliser l’appareil électrique en
étant fatigué ou en étant sous l’inuence de drogues, d’alcools ou de
médicaments. Un moment d’inattention lors de l’utilisation de l’appareil peut
entraîner des blessures graves.
b) Porter des équipements de protection individuelle et toujours des lunettes
de protection. Le port d’équipements de protection individuelle, comme un
masque respiratoire, des chaussures de sécurité anti-dérapantes, un casque de
protection ou une protection acoustique selon le type de l’utilisation de l’appareil
électrique, réduit le risque de blessures.
c) Eviter toute utilisation involontaire ou incontrôlée. Veiller à ce que l’inter-
