170W multi-function tool PMTS 01-230V
•
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use.
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
bind and are easier to control.
•
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
•
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Service
•
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety warnings for multi-function tools
•
Hold the power tool by its insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contacting a live wire might energize exposed metal parts
of the device and lead to an electric shock.
•
Only use the power tool for dry sanding.
Water entering
an electrical appliance increases the risk of electric shock.
•
Keep your hands out of the sawing area. Do not reach
underneath the workpiece.
Risk of injury upon contact
with the saw blade.
•
Use appropriate detection equipment to track down
concealed supply lines or consult the local utility
companies.
Contact with electrical lines may result in fire
and electric shock. Damaging a gas line may lead to an
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property
damage and may cause an electric shock.
•
During operation hold onto the power tool with both
hands and make sure you stand firmly on the ground.
It is safer to handle the power tool with two hands.
•
Secure the workpiece.
The grip of tensioning devices or a
vice is more secure than holding the workpiece only by
hand.
Wear protective gloves when changing the insertion
tools.
The applied tools heat up during longer
operation.
•
Do not treat the surface to be processed with liquids
containing solvents.
Toxic fumes may be produced
during scraping owing to the heat-up of the materials.
•
Ensure sufficient ventilation when processing plastics,
paints, varnishes etc.
•
Wait until the device has come to a standstill, before
putting it down.
Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding and Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations
•
Use only the abrasive products recommended for your
power tool and only for the recommended
applications. Example: do not grind with the side of
cut-off wheel.
Cutting discs are designed for material
removal using the edge of the disc. Exerting force to the
sides of these abrasives may break them.
•
For conical and straight abrasive pencils with a thread,
only use undamaged mandrels of the correct size and
length without an undercut on the shoulder.
Suitable
mandrels prevent the risk of breakage.
•
Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply excessive
pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth
of cut.
Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and
susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut
and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
•
Do not position your hand in line with and behind the
rotating cutting wheel.
When the wheel, at the point of
operation, is moving away from your hand, the possible
kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power
tool directly at you.
•
When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for
any reason, switch off the power tool and hold the
power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-off
wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion
otherwise kickback may occur.
Investigate and take
corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
•
Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece.
Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully re-enter
the cut.
The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the
power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
•
Support panels or any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback.
Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the line
of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on both sides of
the wheel.
