 Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work
area or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines
can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Pen-
etrating a water line causes property damage.
 Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool insert jams. Be prepared
for high reaction torque that can cause kickback. The tool insert jams when:
— the power tool is subject to overload or
— it becomes wedged in the workpiece.
 Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reaction torque can briefly occur while
driving in and loosening screws.
 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is
held more secure than by hand.
 Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop before placing it
down. The tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control over the power tool.
 Before any work on the machine (e. g., maintenance, tool change, etc.) as
well as during transport and storage, set the rotational direction switch to the
centre position. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can lead to injuries.
Protect the power tool against heat, e. g., against continuous intense
sunlight, fire, water, and moisture. Danger of explosion.
 In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours may be emitted.
Ventilate the area and seek medical help in case of complaints. The vapours
can irritate the respiratory system.
