MACHINE SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNING
1) Machine Specific Safety Warnings
Wear hearing protection. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.
Always use the auxiliary handle supplied with the
machine. Loss of control can cause personal
injury.
Use suitable 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. Dama-
ging a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating
a water line causes property damage or may
cause an electric shock.
Hold the power tool only by the insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
shock the operator.
When working with the machine, always hold it
firmly with both hands and provide for a secure
stance. The power tool is guided more secure
with both hands.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure
than by hand.
Do not work materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.
Take protective measures when dust can develop
during working that is harmful to one's health,
combustible or explosive. Example: some dusts
are regarded as carcinogenic. Wear a dust mask
and work with dust/chip extraction when
connectable.
Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials
are particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys
can burn or explode.
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.
Never use the machine with a damaged cable
and pull the mains plug when the cable is
damaged while
working. Damaged cables increase the risk of an
electric shock.
2) Functional Description
