b) Wear personal protective equipment and always safety goggles. Wearing personal
protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, hard hat or ear protection,
depending on the type and use of the power tool, reduces the risk of personal injury.
c) Avoid unintentional start-up. Make sure that the power tool is switched off before
connecting, receiving or carrying it to the power supply and / or the battery. Keeping your
finger on the switch when you are wearing the power tool or plugging the power tool into power
can cause an accident.
d) Remove setting tools or wrenches before turning on the power tool. A tool or key located
in a rotating part of the power tool can cause injury.
e) Avoid an abnormal posture. Ensure a secure footing and maintain balance at all times.
This allows you to better control the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair and clothing away
from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can be caught by moving parts.
g) If dust extraction and collection equipment can be installed, they must be connected and
used properly. Using a dust extractor can reduce dust hazards.
h) Do not weigh yourself in false safety and do not overstep the safety rules for power tools,
even if you are familiar with the power tool after many uses. Careless action can lead to
serious injuries within fractions of a second.
4) Use and treatment of the power tool
a) Do not overload the power tool. Use the appropriate power tool for your work. With the
right power tool you work better and safer in the specified power range.
b) Do not use a power tool whose switch is defective. A power tool that can not be turned on or
off is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Unplug the power cord and / or remove a detachable battery before making any
adjustments to the device, changing the tool bits, or putting the power tool away. This
precaution prevents the unintentional start of the power tool.
d) Store unused power tools out of the reach of children. Do not allow persons to use the
power tool that are unfamiliar or have not read these instructions. Power tools are
dangerous when used by inexperienced people.
e) Maintain power tools and insert tools with care. Check that moving parts are working
properly and do not jam, that parts are broken or damaged enough to impair the
functioning of the power tool. Have damaged parts repaired before using the power tool.
Many accidents are caused by badly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharpcutting edges
become less jammed and easier to guide.
g) Use power tools, accessories, tools etc. according to these instructions. Take intoaccount
the working conditions and the activity to be performed. The use of power tools for other
than intended applications can lead to dangerous situations.
h) Keep handles and grips dry, clean and free of oil and grease. Slippery handles and gripping
surfaces do not allow safe operation and control of the power tool in unforeseen situations.
