Attention! Read all instructions contained herein. Fail-
ure to observe the following instructions may result in

a) Keep your working area clean and tidy. Untidy
and poorly lit working areas may lead to ac-
cidents.
b) Do not operate the tool in potentially explosive
environments containing combustible fluids,
gases or dusts. Power tools generate sparks that
may ignite dusts or fumes.
c) Keep children and other persons away when
you are operating the power tool. Distractions
may result in the operator loosing control over
the tool.
a) The mains plug of the power tool must fit into
the mains socket. The plug must not be modi-
fied in any way. Do not use adapter plugs/con-
nectors in combination with tools with protec-
tive earthing. Unmodified plugs and fitting sockets
reduce the risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces
as pipes, heaters, ovens and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body earthed.
c) Keep the tool out of the rain. The penetration
of water into a power tool increases the risk of
electric shock.
d) Do not use the cable to carry or hang up the
tool or to pull the plug out of the socket. Keep
the cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges
or moving parts of the tool. Damaged or tan-
gled cables increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use
exclusively extension cables that are approved
for outdoor-use. The use of an extension cable
that is suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) If the operation of a power tool in a moist envi-
ronment cannot be avoided it is highly recom-
mended to use a residual current device (RCD).
The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
a) Always pay attention to what you do and apply
reasonable care when working with a power
tool. Do not use the tool when you are tired
or under the influence of medication, drugs or
alcohol. When working with power tools even a
short moment of inattentiveness may result in
severe injury.
b) Wear personal protection equipment and al-
ways wear eye protection (safety goggles).
Wearing personal protection equipment as a dust
mask, nonslip safety shoes, safety helmet or ear
protectors (depending on the type and use of the
tool) reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid unintentional operation. Make sure that
the switch is in 'OFF' position before pulling
the plug from the mains socket. When carrying
