GENERAL SAFETY RULES

The tool is intended for driving in and loosening screws as well as for drilling in wood,

metal, ceramic and plastic.

WORK AREA

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.

• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ammable 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.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not

use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs and

matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,

ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed

or grounded.

• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the

power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or

entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor

use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

• Connect the electric power tool to electricity, using a 16 A maximum secure contact

protected outlet (220-240V~, 50 Hz). We recommend you to attach a residual current

circuit-breaker (RCD) that does not exceed 30mA.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a

power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of

drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may

result in serious personal injury.

• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as

dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate

conditions will reduce personal injuries.
