priate 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 finger 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.
4) 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 measures 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 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 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.
5) 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.
1.2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRILLS AND
SCREWDRIVERS
• The work piece must be properly fixed in place. Use
fixing devices or screws to keep the work piece securely
in place, which will be safer than holding it in your hands.
• Asbestos based products can cause cancer. Do not
process materials that contain this material.
• Release your grip on the power tool only after the
moving parts have come to a complete stop. The cutting
tool may catch on something during work, which may
make it difficult to keep the power tool under control.
• Use an appropriate detection device to locate hidden
electrical cables. Or request this information from the
power company. If you drill electric cables, it can cause
fires and electric shocks. Damaged gas lines can cause
explosions. Significant material damage can occur, if
water pipes are punctured.
• If a tool installed in the power tool jams, you must
turn the tool off and remain calm. In this instance, the
power tool will produce a high torque, causing a sharp
kickback movement. The tool installed in the power tool
will probably jam, due to a too overloading or a deviation
during the work with the installed tool.
• Hold the tool by its insulated grip surfaces when
carrying out an operation where the cutting tool may
come into contact with hidden cables or with its own
cord. The cutting tool that comes in contact with a
"live" wire can cause the power tool's exposed metal
parts to become "live" and could cause the operator
an electric shock.
• Keep the handles and grip surfaces dry, clean and free
of oil and grease. Slippery handles and grip surfaces
do not allow safe handling or control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
• Note that when using a power tool you must hold
the handle correctly. This is key to controlling the tool.
That is why gripping it properly can reduce the risk of
accidents or injuries.
• If there are hidden electrical cables or power lines that
could be damaged during work, hold the power tool
by the insulated handle. When the power tool comes
in contact with a "live" power line, its metal parts will
conduct electricity and could cause electric shocks to
the operator.
• During work, you must hold the power tool firmly with
your hands and make sure it is firmly in place.
• When operating and using the power tool, only hold it
by the main handle with the switch and not by other parts.
• Avoid stopping the power tool's motor when its
under a load.
• Never remove a splinter or fragment with the power
tool's motor running.
• Use undamaged tools. It will facilitate working with
the power tool.
• It is strictly prohibited to modify cutting tools and
