GB
■
Use personal protective equipment. Al-
ways wear eye protection. Protective equip-
ment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce person-
al injuries.
■
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before con-
necting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the machine.
Carrying machines with your finger on the
switch or energising machines that have the
switch on invites accidents.
■
Remove any adjusting key or wrench be-
fore turning the machine on. A wrench or a
key left attached to a rotating part of the ma-
chine may result in personal injury.
■
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables bet-
ter control of the machine in unexpected situ-
ations.
■
Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewellery. Keep your hair and cloth-
ing away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
■
If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.
■
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent
use of machines allow you to become
complacent and ignore machine safety
principles. A careless action can cause se-
vere injury within a fraction of a second.
3.1.4

Electrical machine use and care

■
Do not force the machine. Use the correct
machine for your application. The correct
machine will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
■
Do not use the machine if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any machine that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dan-
gerous and must be repaired.
■
Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack, if
detachable, from the machine before mak-
ing any adjustments, changing accesso-
ries, or storing machines. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the machine accidentally.

■
Store idle machines out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar with the machine or these instruc-
tions to operate the machine. Machines are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
■
Maintain machines and accessories.
Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the ma-
chine's operation. If damaged, have the
machine repaired before use. Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained ma-
chines.
■
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cut-
ting edges are less likely to bind and are eas-
ier to control.
■
Use the machine, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the machine for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazard-
ous situation.
■
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slip-
pery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the ma-
chine in unexpected situations.
3.1.5

Battery machine use and care

■
Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is suit-
able for one type of battery pack may create
a risk of fire when used with another battery
pack.
■
Use machines only with specifically des-
ignated battery packs. Use of any other bat-
tery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
■
When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects, like paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects, that can make a con-
nection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
■
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
