• Switch the appliance off immediately if the drive is blocked
• Keep the handles and surfaces of the tool dry, clean and free of oil or lubricants. Slipping during operation
leads to a loss of control and accidents.

the tool might fall out of your hands, presenting a risk of injury!
• Condensation may form when the product is brought from a cold room into a warm one (e.g. during
transportation). This can damage the product!
Therefore, you should allow the product to warm up to room temperature before using it or inserting the
battery. This may take several hours.
