comes necessary to remove dust, first remove the battery pack (use non-metallic objects) and
avoid damaging internal components.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be used.
Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electrical cables and load-bearing walls (static).

Reduce dust exposure:
Some dust created by using this power tool may contain chemicals known to cause
cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth defects or other reproductive
harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are: Lead from leadbased paints, crystalline silica from
bricks and cement and other masonry products, Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber, hard wood like oak or beech, Metals, Asbestos. The risk from these exposures depends
on how long you or bystanders are being exposed. Do not let particles enter the body.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with ap-
proved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscop-
ic particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material, staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work (see chapter 7.), thus less particles enter the environ-
ment in an uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- Do not direct the escaping particles and the exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons
or on dust deposits,
- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers,
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep clean using a vacuum cleaner Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust.
- Vacuum or wash the protective clothing Do not blow, beat or brush.
