Machine-specific safety notices
– Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory or fasteners
may contact hidden wiring. Cutting acces­
sory contacting a "live" wire may make ex­
posed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric
shock.
–
Use appropriate detection devices to look
for any hidden supply lines or consult your
local utility company. If the insertion tool
makes contact with live cables, it can result
in fire and electric shock. Damage to a gas
pipe can lead to an explosion. Penetration
of a water pipe can result in damage to
property.
–
Wear suitable personal protective equip­
ment: Ear protection, protective goggles,
dust mask for work that generates dust,
protective gloves for working with rough
materials and for changing tools.
CAUTION! Power tool can jam and cause
sudden kickback! Switch off immediately!
– Hold the power tool firmly in your hand.
Make sure the speed is adjusted correctly
when screwdriving. Be prepared for a high
reaction torque, which may cause the pow­
er tool to turn and possibly lead to injury.
–
Do not use the power tool in the rain or in
damp surroundings. Moisture in the power
tool may cause a short circuit and fire.
– Do not lock the on/off switch in place per­
manently.
