Switch off the power tool immediately when
the tool insert jams. Be prepared for high re-
action torque that can cause kickback. The
tool insert jams when:
— the power tool is subject to overload or
— it becomes wedged in the workpiece.
Hold the machine only by the insulated grip-
ping surfaces, when performing an opera-
tion where the cutting tool may run into hid-
den wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock the operator.
Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reac-
tion torque can briefly occur while driving in
and loosening screws.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
Do not work materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.
Take protective measures when dust can de-
velop during working that is harmful to one's
health, combustible or explosive. Example:
Some dusts are regarded as carcinogenic.
Wear a dust mask and work with dust/chip ex-
traction when connectable.
Keep your workplace clean. Blends of mate-
rials are particularly dangerous. Dust from
light alloys can burn or explode.
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.
Avoid unintentional switching on. Ensure the
On/Off switch is in the off position before in-
serting battery pack. Carrying the power tool
with your finger on the On/Off switch or in-
serting the battery pack into power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
Do not open the battery. Danger of short-
circuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e. g.,
also against continuous sun irradiation
and fire. There is danger of explosion.

In case of damage and improper use of the
battery, vapours may be emitted. Provide for
fresh air and seek medical help in case of
complaints. The vapours can irritate the respi-
ratory system.
When the battery is defective, liquid can es-
cape and come into contact with adjacent
components. Check any parts concerned.
Clean such parts or replace them, if required.
