h)
Wear protective gloves when changing insert
tools as the insert tools get hot during use.
i)
Always disconnect the supply cord from the
electric supply when the power tool is not in use
(e.g. during breaks between working), before
making adjustments, before carrying out care
and maintenance and before changing core bits.
This safety precaution prevents the power tool
starting unintentionally.
j)
Switch the power tool on only after bringing it
into the working position.
k)
Always lead the supply cord and extension cord
away from the power tool to the rear while
working.
This helps to avoid tripping over the
cord while working.
l)
Children must be instructed not to play with the
power tool.
m)
The power tool is not intended for use by chil-
dren, by debilitated persons or those who have
received no instruction or training.

WARNING: Some dust created by grinding,
sanding, cutting and drilling contains chem-
icals known to cause cancer, birth defects,
infertility or other reproductive harm; or seri-
ous and permanent respiratory or other injury.
Some examples of these chemicals are: lead from
lead-based paints, crystalline silica from bricks,
concrete and other masonry products and natural
stone, arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures
varies, depending on how often you do this type
of work.
To reduce exposure to these chemicals,
the operator and bystanders should work in a
well-ventilated area, work with approved safety
equipment, such as respiratory protection ap-
propriate for the type of dust generated, and
designed to filter out microscopic particles and
direct dust away from the face and body. Avoid
prolonged contact with dust. Wear protective
clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and
water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth,
eyes, or to remain on your skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.
5.2.2 Power tool use and care
a)
Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice
to secure the workpiece.
The workpiece is thus
held more securely than by hand and both hands
remain free to operate the power tool.
b)
Check that the insert tools used are compatible
with the chuck system and that they are secured
in the chuck correctly.
c)
In case of an interruption in the electric supply:
Switch the power tool off and unplug the supply
cord.
This will prevent accidental restarting when
the electric power returns.
d)
Avoid using extension cords with multiple power
outlets and the simultaneous use of several
power tools connected to one extension cord.
5.2.3 Special safety instructions for
reciprocating saws
a)
Always guide the power tool away from your
body when working with it.
b)
Never position your hands ahead of or on the
saw blade.
c)
Never cut into unknown materials and keep the
line of cut above and below the workpiece free
of obstacles.
If the saw blade strikes an object it
may cause the power tool to kick back.
d)
The power tool must be pressed against the
workpiece until the contact shoe makes firm
contact.
This helps ensure maximum safety and
good performance.
e)
Always use saw blades that project at least 1½"
beyond the workpiece over the entire length of
the blade stroke.
This will help to avoid violent
kickback.
f)
Wear suitable protective clothing to protect you
from hot cuttings.
g)
Never use the power tool without the hand guard
fitted.
h)
Before beginning the work, check the hazard
classification of the dust that will be produced.
Use an industrial vacuum cleaner with an offi-
cially approved protection classification in com-
pliance with locally applicable dust protection
regulations.
i)
WARNING!When cutting through pipes, e.g.
when carrying out demolition or installation
work, check to ensure that the pipes no longer
contain liquids and empty them if necessary.
When cutting through pipes, hold the power
tool above the level of the pipe you are cutting
through.
The power tool incorporates no pro-
tective measures to prevent ingress of water or
dampness. Liquids running out of objects being
