GB | Operating Instructions
GB-3
• Do not use a power tool with a damaged switch.
A power tool that cannot be switched on or off
any more is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Pull the mains plug and/or remove the battery
before adjusting a tool, changing accessories
or putting the tool aside. This precaution
avoids the unintentional start of the tool.
• Store power tools that are currently not used
out of the reach of children. Do not allow per-
sons to use the tool if they are not familiar with
the tool or these instructions. Power tools are
dangerous if used by inexperienced persons.
• Thoroughly maintain your power tool. Check
whether moving parts are working properly
and are not jamming/sticking, and whether
parts are broken or otherwise damaged in a
way that may affect the function of the power
tool. Have damaged parts repaired before us-
ing the tool. Many accidents are the result of
poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Thorough-
ly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are jamming less often and are easier
to guide.
• Use power tools, accessories, add-on tools,
etc. in accordance with these instructions and
in the way prescribed for the respective type
of tool. You should also consider the working
conditions and the work to be carried out. The
use of power tools for purposes other than
those intended for the respective tool may
result in dangerous situations.
1.5 Service
• Have the power tool serviced by qualified tech -
nical personnel only; repairs should be carried
out using exclusively original spare parts. This
will ensure the continued safe operation of the
power tool.
