4 Special Safety Information
For your own protection and
the protection of your power
tool, observe the passages
marked by this symbol!
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any
adjustments or servicing are performed.
Take care to avoid gas, electricity, and water
supplies!
Metabo S-automatic safety clutch.
When the safety clutch responds, switch off the
machine immediately!
Avoid unintentional starting: always unlock the
trigger switch if the machine is unplugged or in the
event of a power failure.
Do not grasp the rotating tool!
Remove chips and similar matter only with the
machine at standstill.
Hold the power tool only at insulated housing
parts, if there is a possible hazard of making
contact with concealed electric cables or the
supply cable. Contact with live wires energizes the
metal parts of the housing and can cause electric
shock to the operator.
Wear ear muffs when working for long periods of
time. High noise levels over a prolonged period of
time may affect your hearing.
