General power tool safety instructions
WARNING Read all the safety notes, instructions, illustrations as well as technical details supplied with this power tool. Failure to follow the safety notices and instructions may result in an electric shock, fire and/or severe injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” used in the safety instructions refers to mains-operated power tools (corded) and battery-powered power tools (cordless).
Work area safety
a) Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
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 children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. If you
are distracted, you could lose control of the power tool.
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 electric shock.
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 use the cord for improper purposes such as for carrying the
power tool, for hanging it up or for pulling or unplugging it from the socket.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use only extension cords that
are 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.
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 connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
connecting the power tool to a power supply while the switch is set to “on”
may lead to 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) Take care to keep a normal body position. Maintain a stable stance 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 and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If there is an option for installing dust suction devices and dust
containers, these should be attached and used correctly. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not be lulled into a false sense of security and ignore the safety
rules for power tools, even if you are well acquainted with power tools,
having used them frequently. Using power tools without due care and attention
can cause serious injuries in a split second.
Power tool use and care
a) Do not overload 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 and/or remove the
rechargeable battery from the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing insertion tools or storing the power tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children. Do not let any
individual who is not familiar with the power tool or who has not read these
instructions operate this power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and insertion tools with care. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If any parts of the
power tool are damaged, have them 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 fitted tools etc. in accordance
with these instructions, 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.
h) Keep handles and handle surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Slippery handles and handle surfaces will prevent you from operating
and controlling the power tools safely in unforeseen situations.
Cordless tool use and care
a) Only charge the rechargeable batteries with chargers recommended by
the manufacturer. Chargers designed for a particular rechargeable battery type
pose a risk of fire if used with other types of rechargeable battery.
b) Only use the rechargeable batteries designated for use in power tools.
Using other rechargeable batteries may result in injury and a risk of fire.
c) Keep the unused rechargeable battery away from paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metallic objects that could bridge the
contacts. A short circuit between the contacts of the rechargeable battery
could result in burns or fire.
d) If used improperly, liquid may leak out of the rechargeable battery.
Avoid coming into contact with it. Rinse with water in the event of accidental
contact. If liquid comes into contact with your eyes, also seek medical
attention. Fluid leaked from the rechargeable battery may cause skin
irritations or burns.
e) Do not use a damaged or modified rechargeable battery. Damaged or
modified rechargeable batteries can be unpredictable and may result in fire,
an explosion or a risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a rechargeable battery to fire or excessively high
temperatures. Fire or temperatures above 130 °C may cause an explosion.
g) Carefully follow all instructions for charging the battery and never
charge the battery or cordless tool outside of the temperature range indicated
in the instructions. Improper charging or charging outside of the permitted
temperature range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
b) Never perform maintenance on damaged rechargeable batteries. Only the
manufacturer or authorised service companies may perform maintenance on
rechargeable batteries.
Special safety instructions for the impact driver
a) Hold the device by the insulated handle surfaces when performing work where there is a risk of the screw coming into contact with hidden power lines. If the screw comes into contact with a voltage-carrying line, metallic parts of the device could be energised as a result and inflict an electric shock.
