• Only use spare parts and accessories that have been
supplied or recommended by the manufacturer. The
use of alien parts results in the immediate loss of all
guarantee claims.
• Ensure that all nuts, bolts and screws are firmly
tightened and that the machine is in a safe working
condition.
• Never try to repair the machine yourself, unless you
have been trained accordingly. All work that has not
been listed in these instructions must only be carried
out by authorised servicing agencies.
• Treat the machine with the greatest care. Always keep
the tool clean. Follow the maintenance instructions.
• Never overload the machine. Always work within
the specified capacity range. Do not use low-power
machines for heavy-duty work. Do not operate the
machine for purposes for which it is not intended.
Electrical safety:
CAUTION!
The following states how to avoid accidents and
injuries due to electric shock:
• Before each use, carry out a visual inspection of the
power and extension cord for any signs of damage or
ageing. Damaged mains power cables increase the
risk of electric shock.
• Connect the machine to a power socket with a
residual-current circuit breaker that has a rated current
of no more than 30 mA.
• Always keep the extension cable well away from the
cutting tools. If the power cable becomes damaged
during work, instantly disconnect the power cable
from the mains. DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER CABLE
BEFORE IT HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE
MAINS! Risk of electric shock.
• The supply cord cannot be replaced. If the cord is
damaged the appliance should be scrapped.
• Keep extension cable away from blades and other
moving parts. They may damage the cable and result
in contact with live parts.
• Check that the mains voltage is the same as indicated
on the rating plate.
Maintenance and storage
• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the
machine is in a safe working condition.
• Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
• Ensure that only the recommended replacement
cutting blades are fitted.
• Ensure that batteries are charged using the charger
supplied or recommended by the manufacturer.
Incorrect use may result in electric shock, overheating
or leakage of corrosive liquid from the battery.
• Servicing of the machine should be carried out
according to manufacturer's instructions.
