• Keep the power tool properly maintained� Check that moving parts are properly
adjusted and do not jam, and that no parts are incorrectly fitted or damaged�
Check for other factors that could affect functionality� If the power tool is
damaged, it must be repaired before being used again� Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools�
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean� Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control�
• Use the power tool, accessories and bits etc�, in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the actual working conditions and the work
that is to be done� It can be dangerous to use power tools for purposes other
than those they are intended to be used for�
Service
• The power tool must only be serviced by qualified personnel using identical
spare parts� This will ensure that the power tool remains safe to use�
Special safety instructions
• Wear ear protection� Exposure to loud noise can cause hearing impairments�
• Use the support handle, if the tool is supplied with one� Otherwise, you could
lose control of the tool and become injured�
• 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�
Vibration
The declared vibration value, which has been measured by a standardised test
method, can be used to compare different tools with each other and for a prelimi-
nary assessment of exposure�
WARNING:
The actual vibration level when using power tools may differ from the
specified total value, depending on how the tool is used� It is therefore necessary to
determine which safety precautions are required to protect the user, based on an
estimate of exposure in actual operating conditions (taking into account all stages
of the work cycle, e�g� the time when the tool is switched off and when it is idling,
in addition to the start-up time)�
