3. SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
a) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cu ing
accessory or fastener may contact hidden wiring. Cu ing accessory and fasteners contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
b) Use appropriate 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 explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an
electric shock.
c) Switch o the power tool immediately when the tool insert 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.
d) Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reaction torque can briefly occur while driving in and
loosening screws.
e) Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure
than by hand.
f) Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can
burn or explode.
g) 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.
h) Do not open the ba ery. Danger of short circuiting. Protect the ba ery against heat, e.g., also against
continuous sun irradiation and fire. There is danger of explosion.
i) In case of damage and improper use of the ba ery, vapours may be emi ed. Provide for fresh air and
seek medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory system.
j) When the ba ery is defective, liquid can escape and come into contact with adjacent components.
Check any parts concerned. Clean such parts or replace them, if required.
Pay a ention to all the signs and symbols shown in these instructions and on your tool.
Make a note of these signs and symbols. If you interpret the signs and symbols correctly, your work with
the machine will be safer and be er.
Important.
Read the instructions for use before starting the machine.
Wear safety goggles.
Wear ear protection.
Wear good quality, strong gloves.
Always use breathing apparatus when machining materials which generate dust.
End of life machines contain valuable materials and therefore they should not be placed in
household waste. We would ask you to play your part in protecting resources and help protect
the environment by returning this machine to a return point (if one is available) when it
reaches the end of its life.
