Operating instructions
Pay constant attention, watch what your are doing and think when working with power tools. Do not
use power tools if you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
carelessness when working with power tools may lead to serious injury.
Prevent the situation where the tool is turned on accidentally. Ensure the trigger switch is in the Off
position before connecting the power cord to the power socket. Carrying power tools with the fi nger
on the main trigger switch or connecting the power cord to the power socket when the main trigger
switch is in the On position may cause injury.
Do not get in your own way. When working, always maintain a fi rm posture and balance. This will
make it possible to better control the power tool in unexpected situations.
Use clamps or a vice to fasten the workpiece. It is safer than holding the workpiece in your hand
and at the same time you have both hands free to operate the tool.
Keep the working area tidy and well illuminated. A cluttered and badly lit work area may lead to injury.
Do not work with the power tool in an explosive environment, such as for example areas where
there are fl ammable liquid, gas or powder substances. Sparks are made inside the power tool,
which may cause the ignition of fl ammable powder or vapour.
