General safety information
WARNING!
When using electric tools the following general sa-
fety instructions must be obeyed to protect yourself
from electric shocks, injury and fire risks.
Read all these instructions before using this electric
tool and keep the safety instruction in a safe place.
Keep your work area clean and tidy.
Untidy work-
places and workbenches increase the risk of accidents
and injuries.
Do not expose the appliance to rain and do not
use it in wet or moisture conditions.
Provide adequate lighting or good lighting condi-
tions when working with the machine.
Do not work with electric tools in conditions with
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Electric tools produ-
ce sparks able to ignite dust or fumes.
Protect yourself from electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed objects (for example
pipes, radiators, electric stoves and cooling units). There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed.
Keep children and bystanders away while ope-
rating a power tool.
Do not touch the electric tool
or the cable. When not concentrated, you may lose
control over the machine.
Ensure that you store electric tools in a safe place.
Tools which are not in used must be stored in a dry
place as high as possible out of the reach of children
or in an inaccessible place.
Do not overload the machine. Use appropriate
electric tools for your work. Working with approp-
riate electric tools is better and safer when within
the specified power range.
They will work better
and more safely in the specified power range.
Do not use low-power machines for heavy work.
Do not use the electric tool for purposes for which
it is not designed.
For example, do not use a manual
circular saw for cutting branches or logs.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts.
We recommend that you
wear non-slip shoes when working outdoors. Wear a
hairnet if you have long hair.
Use protective equipment which fit you.
Wear
safety goggles and ear protection at all times. A dust
mask or respirator is also required. Wear tight-fitting
gloves at all times when handling sharp blades and
saw blades,
If dust exhausters and catchers are to be installed,
make sure they are fitted and used properly.
Using
a dust exhauster may reduce the exposure to dust.
Do not use the cable in conflict with its designa-
tion, to carry or hang electric tools or to pull the
plug out of socket. Protect the cable against high
temperatures, oil, sharp edges or moving parts of
the machine.
Damaged or entangled cables increase
the risk of electric shock.
Only workpieces that have a contact surface for safe
guiding on the work table may be worked on.
Round materials may only be cut with suitable
holding brackets.
* Holding bracket not included in the delivery.
Avoid any abnormal body posture. Provide good
stability and keep balance at all times.
By this,
electric tools are better controlled in unexpected
situations.
Treat electric tools carefully. Check whether the
moving parts work perfectly and do not drag,
whether not broken or damaged to such an extent
that functioning of electric tools could be affected.
Have any damaged parts repaired before using the
machine. Poor maintenance of electric tools is a
cause of many injuries.
Keep the cutting tools sharp and clean.
Carefully
treated cutting tools with sharp edges get stuck less
often and are easier to guide.
Follow the instructions for lubricating and chan-
ging tools.
Check the connection cable on the electric tool at
regular intervals and have it replaced by an expert
if it is damaged.
Check the extension cables at regular intervals and
replace them if they are damaged.
Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and
grease.
Pull the plug out of the socket and/or remove the
battery when the tool is not in use before you
make machine settings or change accessories,
