5 Specific Safety Rules

Pay particular attention to the
parts of the text marked with
this symbol for your own
safety and the protection of
your power tool.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, because the cutter head may
contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and shock the operator.
Wait until the cutter drum is at a standstill
before setting down the power tool. An
exposed cutter drum can get caught on the
surface and lead to a loss of control and pos-
sible serious injury.
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!
Be aware of the risk of injury
presented by the sharp
cutting edges of the
reversible blades.
Be aware of the rotating
cutterhead.
Remember that your paint
remover's motor, and the cutterhead with it,
run on after the tool is switched off.
Dust from material such as paint containing
lead, some wood species, minerals and metal
may be harmful. Contact with or inhalation of
the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or
respiratory diseases to the operator or
bystanders.
Certain kinds of dust are classified as
carcinogenic such as oak and beech dust
especially in conjunction with additives for
wood conditioning (chromate, wood
preservative). Material containing asbestos
must only be treated by specialists.
- To achieve a high level of dust collection, use
a suitable Metabo vacuum cleaner together
with this tool.
- The work place must be well ventilated.
- The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is
recommended.

Follow national requirements for the materials
you want to work with.
Avoid the possibility of your power tool being
switched on accidentally:
Switch your power tool off every time it is
disconnected from the mains supply or if the
power supply has been interrupted.
Do not process any workpiece surfaces in
which nails, screws or other such obstacles
may be encountered.
Turn or replace blunt blades in good time: if
the cutting edges on the blades are blunt,
there is an increased risk of kickback and the
quality of the processed surface will
deteriorate.
Always turn or replace blunt blades in pairs.
Opening the protection flaps
Caution: Beware of sharp cutting edges!
Switch off machine. Milling head must be at
a total standstill!
A
A: Open the protection flap as indicated and
B: fold flap up into the fully-open position.
Protection flaps
When milling plane surfaces all protection
flaps must be closed. When carrying out peri-
pheral milling (e.g. on rebates) only open the
protection flap pointing to the workpiece.
Metabo Sautomatic safety clutch:
If the insertion tool jams or
hooks, the power flow to the
engine will be restricted.
Because of the high power
which then arises, always
hold the machine with both
hands on the handles, stand
safely, and concentrate on
your work.
