Generelle sikkerhedsadvarsler for elværktøj
- Sikkerhed på arbejdsområdet: Hold arbejdsområdet rent og godt oplyst. Rodede eller mørke områder indbyder til ulykker. Brug ikke elværktøj i eksplosive atmosfærer, f.eks. i nærheden af brandfarlige væsker, gasser eller støv.

- Personlig sikkerhed: 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 influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including eye protection, hearing protection, dust mask, and heavy-duty gloves.
- Brug og vedligeholdelse af elværktøj: Tving ikke elværktøjet. Brug det korrekte elværktøj til din opgave. Frakobl batteriet fra elværktøjet, før du foretager justeringer, skifter tilbehør eller opbevarer elværktøjet.
