Danger from electric current!
DANGER
Danger to life from electric current!
Contact with live wires or components
can lead to serious injury or even
death!
Observe the following safety precautions
to avoid any danger from electric current:
►
Do not open the housing of the
machine. Risk of electric shock from
touching live connections.
►
Never immerse the machine or mains
plug in water or other liquids.
►
Only use extension or cable drums
with a cable cross-section of 1.5 mm².
►
Only use extension cables that are
approved for the location of use.
►
Check the condition of the extension
cable regularly and replace if dam-
aged.
►
Avoid bodily contact with grounded
parts (e.g., pipes, radiators, steel
girders) to reduce the risk of electric
shock in the event of a defect.
►
When using the machine outside or in
a humid environment, an RCD (resid-
ual circuit device) must be used.
Risk of injury!
WARNING
Improper handling of the machine
increases the risk of injury!
Pay attention to the following safety
instructions in order not to injure others
or yourself:
►
Operate the machine only with the
protective equipment stipulated in
these operating instructions (see
section
Personal protective equip-
ment
).
►
Do not
wear protective gloves when
the machine is running. A glove can
be caught by the drilling machine and
torn off the hand. Risk of losing one
or more fingers.
►
Remove loose jewellery before begin-
ning work. Wear a hair net if you have
long hair.
►
Always switch off the machine before
changing tools, performing main-
tenance or cleaning. Wait until the
machine has come to a complete
standstill.
►
Always remove the plug from the
mains socket before changing tools,
cleaning or performing maintenance
work in order to avoid unintentional
starting of the machine.
►
Do not put your hand into the ma-
chine while it is in operation. Remove
swarf only when the machine is at
a standstill. Wear protective gloves
when removing swarf.
►
When working on scaffolding, the op
-
erator must be secured with a safety
belt as the machine can oscillate dan-
gerously in the event of interruption to
the power supply.
