3. General Safety Instructions
For your own protection and for the
protection of your electrical tool, pay
attention to all parts of the text that are
marked with this symbol!
WARNING – Reading the operating instruc-
tions will reduce the risk of injury.
WARNING – Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference. Pass on your electrical tool only
together with these documents.
4. Special Safety Instructions
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the cutter may contact
its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by your hand or against the body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Wait until the cutter head is at a standstill
before setting down the power tool. An exposed
cutter head can get caught on the surface and lead
to a loss of control and possible serious injury.
Do not place the device on hard surfaces to protect
the reversible cutting plates.
Always wear personal protective equipment, safety
goggles, ear protectors, protective gloves and
heavy-duty footwear during work and for all setting,
conversion and maintenance tasks!
Danger of injury from the sharp
edges of the reversible blades. Pay
attention to the rotating cutter head!
Keep in mind that the motor and thus
the cutter head of your paint remover
continues to run after switching off
the tool.
Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the tool off
when the plug is removed from the mains socket or
if there has been a power cut.
Turn/replace blunt reversible blades in good time:
Worn cutting edges of the reversible blades
increase the risk of kickback and reduce the quality
of the milling operation.
Turn/replace blunt reversible blades always in
pairs.
Do not machine any workpiece surfaces that
contain nails, screws or similar obstacles!
The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against
slipping, e.g. using clamps.
Secure small workpieces. For example, clamp in a
vice.
Opening the protective flaps:
Attention: Danger of injury from the
sharp edges of the blades! Switch off the
machine. The cutter head has to be idle!
A
A: Open the protective flap as shown and
B: fold all the way upwards.
Protective flaps:
All protective flaps have to be closed during surface
milling operations.
During peripheral milling (e.g. at folds) open only
the protective flap pointing towards the workpiece.
High forces are released if the tool jams or catches.
You must therefore always hold the machine with
both hands using the handles provided, assume a
safer stance and concentrate while working.
