SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read all the safety instructions and other instructions. Failure to follow the safety instructions and other instructions can result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury. Save all the safety instructions and other instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the safety instructions refers to your mains-powered (corded) or battery-powered (cordless) power tool.

SAFETY IN THE WORK AREA

• Make sure the work area is clean and well lit. Untidy or poorly lit work areas can cause accidents.
•  Do not work with this power tool in environments where there is a risk of explosion, or where there are flammable liquids, gas or dust. Power tools produce sparks that can ignite dust and fumes.
• Keep children and other persons at a safe distance when using the power tool.
• Distractions can cause you to lose control of the tool.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• The plug on the power tool must match the power point. The plug must not be modified in any way. Do not use adapter plugs together with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.
• Do not expose the power tool to rain or moisture. There is an increased risk of electric shock if water enters a power tool.
• Do not use the power cord for other purposes, e.g. to carry or hang up the power tool, or to pull the plug out of the power point. Protect the power cord from heat, oil, sham edges and moving machine parts. Damaged or tangled power cords increase the risk of electric shock. When working outdoors with the power tool only use an extension cord intended for outdoor use.
• If you have to use the power tool in damp conditions use a residual current device. Use of a residual current device reduces the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Pay full attention to what you are doing.
• Use your common sense when working with power tools. Do not use power tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention can result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal safety equipment and always wear safety glasses. The use of personal protective equipment, e.g. dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, helmet and ear protection, according to the type of power tool and application, reduces the risk of injury.
• Avoid accidently starting the power tool. Check that the tool is switched off before connecting it to the power supply and/or battery, or before lifting it or carrying it. Avoid holding your finger on the power switch when carrying the power tool. If the power tool is connected to the power supply when the power switch is switched on this can result in personal injury.
• Remove adjusting tools before starting the power tool. A tool or screwdriver left in a rotating machine part can result in personal injury.
• Avoid awkward body positions. Make sure you have a firm footing and can maintain  your balance at all times. This will ensure you have better control over the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. Do not allow your hair, clothes or gloves to come near moving parts. loose-fitting clothing, jewellery or long hair can get caught in moving parts.
• If dust extraction devices can be fitted, make sure they are properly connected and used. Dust extraction reduces dust related risks.

USING AND LOOKING AFTER POWER TOOLS

• Do not overload the machine. Use power tools that are intended for the job on hand. The use of the right tools means you work better and safer.
• Do not use power tools with defective switches. A power tool that cannot be switched on or off is dangerous and must be repaired. Unplug the plug from the power point and/or remove the battery before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or putting away the tool.
• Store power tools not in use out of the reach of children. Do not allow anyone to use the power tool if they are not familiar with it, or have not read these instructions. Power tools are dangerous if used by inexperienced persons.
• Look after the power tool carefully. Check that moving parts function perfectly and do not jam, and that no parts are defective or damaged. Have damaged parts repaired before using the machine. Many accidents are a result of poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep sharp-edged tools clean and well sharpened. Carefully looked after sharp-edged tools with sharp blades jam less frequently and are easier to control.
• Use power tools, accessories and tool inserts etc. in accordance with these instructions. Pay attention to the actual working conditions and the job to be done. Using power tools for purposes they are not intended to be used for can result in dangerous situations.

USING AND MAINTAINING a `BATTERY-POWERED TOOLS

• Charge the batteries only with the charger recommended by the manufacturer. The use of another charger can result in the risk of personal injury and fire. Only use batteries intended for the power tool. The use of other batteries can result in the risk of personal injury and fire.
• Do not allow batteries to come into contact with paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other small metal objects that can result in short circuiting. Short circuiting the battery terminals can result in the risk of burn injuries or fire.
• Incorrect use can cause liquid to leak from the battery. Avoid touching this. Rinse with water after unintentional contact. Seek medical attention if you get battery fluid in your eyes. Leaking battery fluid can cause skin irritation or burn injuries.

SERVICE

• Only allow qualified service personnel to repair the power tool, and only use original spare parts. This will guarantee the safety of your machine.

REDUCTION OF NOISE AND-A VIBRATIONS

• Plan the work so that exposure to heavy vibrations is spread over a longer period.
• To reduce noise and vibrations when in use, limit the time the tool is in use, and use low-power/vibration mode and suitable safety equipment.
• Take the following precautions to minimise the risks of exposure to vibrations and/or noise:
  • Only use the tool in accordance with these instructions.
  • Check that the tool is in good condition.
  • Use accessories in good condition, and which are suitable for the purpose.
  • Keep a firm grip on the handles/ grips.
  • Maintain and lubricate the tool in accordance with these instructions.

OTHER RISK

• Even if the power tool is used in accordance with these instructions there are always other potential risks. The following risks can be anticipated as a result of the design and performance of the power tool.
  • Damage to lungs if dust mask is not used.
  • Hearing impairment if ear protection is not used.
  • Health hazard resulting from hand and arm vibrations if the machine is used for longer than specified in the instructions, or not used and maintained according to the instructions.

WARNING!

This power tool produces an electromagnetic field when in use. This field can in some circumstances affect active or passive medical implants. To reduce the risk of serious or life-threatening personal injury we therefore recommend that persons with medical implants consult their doctor and the manufacturer of the medical implant before using this machine.

TECHNICAL DATA

Always wear ear protection.
The declared values for vibration and noise, which have been measured according to a standardised test method, can be used to compare different tools with each other and for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The measurement values have been determined in accordance with EN 60745-2-23.

WARNING!
The actual vibration level when using power   tools may differ from the specified maximum value, depending on how the tool is used. It is therefore necessary to determine which safety precautions are required to protect the user, based on an estimate of exposure in actual operating conditions (taking into account all stages of the work cycle, e.g. the time when the tool is switched off and when it is idling, in addition to the start-up time).
