Electrical safety instructions
The power tool has double insulation, which means that
all external metal parts are insulated from the electrical
components. Therefore, in accordance with EN 60745 standard,
no grounding is required. However, double insulation does not

when using the power tool.
Only hold the power tool by its insulated surfaces, which
prevent electric shock if the power tool comes into contact with
