before using the device for the first time.If you sell or pass this device on, you must also hand over
these operating instructions.
● Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term power tool in the warnings refers to your
mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
● Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas may cause accidents.
● Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
● Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
● Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
● Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection devices. Protective equipment such as
dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hats, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
● Prevent unintentional startup. Ensure the switch is in the "off" position before connecting to a power source
and/or battery pack, picking up, or carrying this tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energizing power tools that have the switch on may cause accidents.
● 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.

parts. Loose clothes, jewelry 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 these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
● 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.
● 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.
● Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools, Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
