Special Safety Instructions - Metabo KHE 3250 Operating Instructions Manual

d)Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e)Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g)Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result
in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a)Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.

3. Special Safety Instructions

Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
Use auxiliary handle, if supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the electrical
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
Work only with the additional handle correctly
installed.
Always hold the machine with both hands using the
handles provided, stand securely and concentrate.
Always wear protective goggles, gloves, and sturdy
shoes when working with this tool.
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
using a metal detector).
If the safety coupling responds, switch off the
machine immediately.
Do not touch the rotating tool!
Secure the workpiece against slipping, e.g. with the
help of clamping devices.
Remove chips and similar material only with the
machine at standstill.
Caution with hard screwdriving (driving of screws
with either a metric or an imperial thread into steel)!
The head of the screw may rip off or high restoring
torques may be incurred at the handle.
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any
adjustments or servicing are performed.
Safety coupling:If the tool jams or catches, the
power supply to the motor is restricted. Due to the
strong force which can arise, always hold the
machine with both hands using the handles
provided, stand securely and concentrate.
A damaged or cracked auxiliary handle must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
additional handle.
Additional Warnings:
Some dust created by power
WARNING
sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
