high-speed cutting blades.
It is important you read and under-
stand the User Manual before com-

for future reference. Non-compliance
with the User Manual may cause seri-
ous or even fatal injury.
Observe all applicable local safety regulations,
e.g. by trade organizations, social insurance
institutions, labor safety authorities etc.
If you have never used a power tool before:
Have your dealer or other experienced user
show you how to operate your machine - or
attend a special course to learn how to operate
it.
Minors are not allowed to work with the power
tool - except adolescents above 16 years of age
who are instructed under supervision.
