shock.
• Avoid overheating the tool and workpiece
– risk of material damage.
• Do not touch accessories during or
immediately after use – risk of burn injury.
• Never clean hot tools with flammable
agents – risk of fire and/or explosion.
• Keep the handles clean, dry and free from
oil and grease. Greasy handles make it
difficult to hold the tool – risk of personal
injury and/material damage.
• In addition to these instructions, you
should always comply with local
regulations and laws concerning health,
safety and the environment.
• Do not remove or cover symbols and
markings on the product. Replace any
stickers that have become illegible or lost.
REMAINING RISKS
Even if appropriate safety regulations are
adhered to and safety devices are used, it is
not possible to eliminate all risks. The following
risks remain:
• Risk of contact with non-covered parts of
moving parts.
• Kickback from the workpiece, or part of
the workpiece.
VIBRATION
Follow the instructions below to reduce the risk
of personal injury as a result of vibrations:
• Maintain the tool in accordance with
these instructions.
• Avoid working at low temperatures.
• Keep your body and especially your hands
warm.
• Take regular pauses and move your hands
to stimulate circulation.
IMPORTANT:
Risk of personal injury as a result of
• Wear ear protection.
• Wear a dust filter mask if the work
produces a lot of dust.
• Wear safety gloves.
• Wear a hair net if you have long hair.
• Do not wear loose-fitting clothes,
jewellery, or watches etc. that can fasten
in moving parts.
• If dust extraction and dust collection
equipment is available, this should be
connected and used correctly. Clean the
ventilation openings regularly. The
accumulation of metal dust can cause the
metal parts of the tool to become live –
risk of electric shock.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Hold the power tool by the insulated grips
when working in areas where the tool
may come into contact with concealed
electrical cables or its own power cord.
Contact with a live cable will cause the
metal parts on the tool to also become
live – risk of electric shock.
• Before starting work on walls, ceilings or
floors, check that there are no concealed
electrical cables or conduits. Use a live
wire detector, or ask an electrician for
help. Failure to observe these instructions
could result in the risk of fire, explosion,
electric shock, personal injury and/or
material damage.
• Avoid accidental starting. Switch off the
tool if the power supply is disconnected,
e.g. as a result of a power cut or if the
power cord is pulled out.
• Secure the workpiece. Secure the
workpiece with clamps or a vice. Never
hold the workpiece with your hand.
• Keep the work area clean. The mixing of
dust from different materials is especially
dangerous. Dust from light metals, e.g.
aluminium, can ignite or explode.
• Do not use the tool if the power cord is
damaged. Pull out the plug immediately
if the cord is damaged when working. Do
not pull the power cord to disconnect the
