. (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) when working with
this power tool. GFCI is designed to cut off the power when electricity is flowing through the ground wire.
This is an excellent protection against electric shock. If you are required to meet OSHA and NEC standards, you
must utilize a GFCI when working with any power equipment according to Federal United States law. If the tool
is not connected to a proper outlet, you may receive an electric shock which may lead to severe injury or death.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not
use any adapter plugs since this may cause fire or electrical shock that may cause injury or death. If the tool
should malfunction, the ground provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
Grounded cords that comply with all codes and ordinances must be used.
The use of accessories or systems other than those
recommended in these instructions may cause personal injury, like as electric shock, fire or other. Use only
original spare parts and accessories from the manufacturer for this tool. Using parts other than those
specified in the spare parts list or otherwise approved by the manufacturer may cause personal injury and
render the warranty invalid. The same applies to using non-approved or unauthorized service centers.
The tool has been manufactured in accordance with prevailing regulations. Repairs should onlybe carried out
by a properly qualified electrician to avoid the risk of personal accidents or injury.

Failing to do this may lead to electric shock. Someone may also turn on the machine involuntarily, which can
cause fire and or severe injury.
Ensure that a firm foothold can be obtained and that the work surface is stable.
Use the necessary safety equipment when working at heights. Firmly attach all anchoring points. If you intend
to utilize ladders and scaffolding, follow the safety instructions of that equipment carefully. Always use
appropriate safety equipment such as heat-protective gloves, a respiratory mask, eye protection, nonskid safety
shoes and a hard hat, where appropriate in order to avoid damage. Follow local laws and regulations.
Do not touch the tool's metal parts while in operation, since they become extremely
hot and can cause personal injury. Also avoid touching already heated and loosened paint, putty and varnish,
which can become hot as well. Always use appropriate safety equipment such as heat-protective gloves.
