English
Use appropriate detection devices to look
–
for any hidden supply lines or consult your
local utility company. If the insertion tool
makes contact with live cables, it can result
in fire and electric shock. Damage to a gas
pipe can lead to an explosion. Penetration
of a water pipe can result in damage to
property.
Harmful/toxic dust may be produced dur­
–
ing your work (e.g. paint containing lead,
certain types of wood and metal). Only
qualified persons are permitted to handle
materials containing asbestos. Aontact
with or inhalation of this dust may pose a
risk for the operating personnel or persons
in the vicinity. Comply with the safety regu­
lations that apply in your country.
Wear a P2 respiratory mask to protect
your health.
– After machining mineral materials (e.g.
gypsum): Blow out the inside of the power
tool through the vents and the control ele­
ment using dry, oil-free compressed air.
Otherwise, dust deposits may build up in­
side the power tool's housing and on the
on/off switch and harden when exposed to
humidity. This may impair the switching
mechanism and cause the power tool to
overheat.
– After machining metal: Blow out the inside
of the power tool through the vents using
dry, oil-free compressed air. Otherwise,
conductive dust deposits may build up in­
side the power tool. This can cause a short-
circuit.
– Do not use power supply units or third-
party battery packs to operate cordless
power tools. Do not use third-party charg­
ers to charge the battery packs. The use of
accessories not expressly authorised by the
manufacturer can result in electric shocks
and/or serious accidents.
2.4 Safety warnings for sanding tools
– Sanding tools are fragile, which is why you
must be extremely careful when handling
them. The use of damaged, incorrectly
clamped or inserted sanding tools is dan­
gerous and can cause serious injuries.
– Ensure that the sanding tools are not ex­
posed to any mechanical damage or harm­
ful environmental conditions during stor­
age.
20
– Handle and transport sanding tools with
care.
– Pay attention to the information on the la­
bel or the sanding tool itself, as well as us­
age restrictions, safety warnings or other
instructions. If any points are unclear when
choosing sanding tools, the user must con­
tact the manufacturer for information be­
fore using the tool.
– Sanding tools must be fitted in accordance
with Section 8.2 .
– Only experienced staff are permitted to fit
sanding tools.
2.5 Emission levels
The levels determined in accordance with EN
60745 are typically:
Sound pressure level
Sound power level
Uncertainty
CAUTION
Noise generated when working
Risk of damage to hearing
► Use ear protection.
Vibration emission level a
three directions) and uncertainty K measured in
accordance with EN 60745:
Sanding
Abrasive cutting
The specified emission levels (vibration, noise)
– are used to compare machines.
– They are also used for making preliminary
estimates regarding vibration and noise
load during operation.
– They represent the primary applications of
the power tool.
Other applications, e.g. wire brushes, may
cause different vibration emission values.
