Safety Warnings for Drills
 Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss
of control can cause personal injury.
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting ac-
cessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
 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. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo-
sion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or
may cause an electric shock.
 Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool in-
sert 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.
 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 clamp-
ing 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.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA
approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author-
ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should
have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-
et elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current de-
vice (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
Additional safety warnings
 Do not use the power tool for explosive materials (e. g.,
easily inflammable solvents). Power tools produce
sparks which could ignite developing vapours.
 In case the power tool should fall into the material to be
stirred, pull the plug immediately and have the power
tool checked by an after-sales service agent. Material
that has penetrated the power tool can cause damage and
lead to an electric shock.
 Do not mix food. Power tools and their accessories are not
designed for processing food.
 Keep the cord away from the working area. The cord
may be entangled by the stirrer paddle.
 The mixing container must be suitable for mixing and
must stand securely. A container that is not properly se-
cured may move uncontrolled.
1 609 92A 1VD | (22.8.16)
 Ensure that no liquid splashes against the housing of
the power tool. Liquid that has penetrated the power tool
can cause damage and lead to electric shock.
 Follow the instructions and warnings in the Material
Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) of the material to be mixed.
Material to be mixed may be harmful.
 In the event of a power interruption, release the lock-
ing switch by pressing the on/off switch. This will pre-
vent the power tool from restarting unintentionally (risk of
injury).
 Do not use the power tool in a stand.
