General Safety Instructions
To avoid malfunctions, damage and health hazards when working with the machine, in addition to
the general rules for safe working, the following points must be observed:
Before commissioning, check the machine for completeness and function.
Choose a level, vibration-free, non-slip surface for the installation location.
Ensure sufficient space around the machine!
Remove setting tools from the machine before switching on.
Keep the area around the machine free of obstacles (e.g. dust, chips, etc.).
Check the strength of the machine connections before each use.
The machine may only be operated, serviced or repaired by persons who are familiar
with it and who have been informed of the dangers arising in the course of this work.
Ensure that unauthorised persons maintain an appropriate safety distance from the
machine and, in particular, keep children away from the machine..
Wear suitable protective equipment (eye protection, dust mask, ear protection, gloves
when handling tools) as well as close-fitting work protective clothing - never wear loose
clothing, ties, jewellery, etc. - danger of being drawn in!
Hide long hair under hair protection.
Do not overload the machine!
Do not work on the machine if you are tired, not concentrated or under the influence of
medication, alcohol or drugs!
Do not use the machine in areas where vapours from paints, solvents or flammable
liquids represent a potential danger (danger of fire or explosion!).
Always shut down the machine before carrying out any conversion, adjustment,
measuring, cleaning, maintenance or repair work and always disconnect it from the
power supply for maintenance or repair work. Before starting any work on the machine,
wait until all tools or machine parts have come to a complete standstill and secure the
machine against unintentional restarting.

Electrical Safety
Make sure that the machine is earthed.
Only use suitable extension cords.
A damaged or tangled cable increases the risk of electric shock. Handle the cable with
care. Never use the cable to carry, pull or disconnect the power tool. Keep the cable
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Proper plugs and sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
Water entry into machine increases the risk of electric shock. Do not expose machine to
rain or moisture.
The machine may only be used in humid environments if the power source is protected
by a residual current circuit breaker.
Do not use the machine if it cannot be turned on and off with the ON/OFF switch.
