3. General safety instructions
For your own protection and for the
protection of your power tool, pay atten-
tion to all parts of the text that are marked
with this symbol!
WARNING – Reading the operating instruc-
tions will reduce the risk of injury.
WARNING Read all safety warnings and
instructions. Failure to follow all safety warn-
ings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety instructions and information for
future reference.
Pass on your electrical tool only together with these
documents.
4. Special Safety Instructions
Use the additional handle supplied with the
tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. If the cutting accessory
contacts a "live" wire, exposed metal parts of the
electrical tool may become "live" and give the oper-
ator an electric shock.
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before carrying
out any adjustments or servicing.
Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the
switch when the plug is removed from the mains
socket or in case of a power cut.
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
by using a metal detector).
Smaller workpieces must be secured to prevent
them from being carried along with the drill bit
during the drilling process (e.g. by clamping in a
vice or on a work bench with screw clamps).
Keep hands away from the rotating tool! Remove
chips and similar material only when the machine is
at a standstill.
Metabo S-automatic safety clutch. When the safety
clutch responds, switch off the machine immedi-
ately! If the tool jams or catches, the power supply
to the motor is restricted. Due to the strong force
that can be generated, always hold the machine
with both hands using the handles provided, stand
in a steady position and concentrate on the work
being carried out.
The Metabo S-automatic safety clutch must not be
used for torque control.
Caution when carrying out hard screwdriving
(driving of screws with either a metric or an imperial
thread into steel)! The head of the screw may be
ripped off or high restoring torques may occur on
the handle.
Dust from material such as paint containing lead,
some wood species, minerals and metal may be
harmful. Contact with or inhalation of the dust may
cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases
to the operator or bystanders.
Certain kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic,
such as oak and beech dust, especially in
conjunction with additives for wood conditioning
(chromate, wood preservative). Material containing
asbestos must only be treated by specialists.
- Use a dust extraction device where possible.
- The work place must be well ventilated.
- The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is recom-
mended.
Follow national requirements for the materials you
want to work with.
