making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety mea
ures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
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.

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.

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(s), if supplied with the
tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold power tools by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Contact with a live wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool live and shock the
operator.
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, changing tools, carrying out
maintenance or cleaning.
Always work with the additional handle correctly
installed.
Always hold the machine with both hands on the
intended handles, take a secure stance and
concentrate on the work.
Always wear protective goggles, gloves, a dust
mask and sturdy shoes when working with this tool.
Ensure that the place where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
check using a metal detector).
Work only with a correctly fitted tool. Pull on the tool
to check that it is correctly seated. (It must be
possible to move the tool a few centimetres in an
axial direction.)
When working above ground level, ensure that the
area below you is clear.

Never touch the tool or parts near the tool directly
after work because they may be extremely hot and
can cause burns to the skin,
Always position the power cable so that it leads
away from the back of the machine.
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
additional handle.
Secure the workpiece to prevent slipping or rotation
(e.g. by securing with screw clamps).
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.
