conjunction with additives for wood conditioning
(chromate, wood preservative). Material containing
asbestos must only be treated by specialists.
- Use a dust extraction device where possible.
- The work place must be well ventilated.
- The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is recom-
mended.
Follow national requirements for the materials you
want to work with.
Materials that generate dusts or vapours that may
be harmful to health (e.g. asbestos) must not be
processed.
When working in dusty conditions, ensure that
ventilation openings are not blocked. If it becomes
necessary to remove dust, first disconnect the
power tool from the mains supply (use non-metallic
objects) and avoid damaging internal components.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be
used.
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
additional handle.
Only use the machine if the safety guard is in place.
Always guide the machine with both hands on the
handles provided
4.7 Special safety instructions for mains
powered machines:
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any
adjustments, conversions or servicing are
performed.
Before connecting the mains plug, make sure that
the machine is switched off.
During machining, of metals in
particular, conductive dust can form
deposits inside the machine. This can lead to the
transfer of electrical energy onto the machine
housing. This can mean a temporary danger of
electric shocks. This is why it is necessary when the
machine is running to blow compressed air through
the rear ventilation slots of the machine regularly,
frequently and thoroughly. Here, the machine must
be held firmly.
We recommend using a stationary extractor system
and connecting a residual current circuit-breaker
(FI) upstream. When the machine is shut down via
the FI circuit-breaker, it must be checked and
cleaned. See chapter 9. Maintenance for more
information on cleaning the motor.
4.8 Special safety instructions for cordless
machines:
Remove the battery pack from the machine before
any adjustments, conversions or servicing are
performed.
Before fitting the battery pack, make sure that the
machine is switched off.
Protect battery packs from water and mois-
ture!
Do not expose battery packs to naked flame!
12
Do not use faulty or deformed battery packs!
Do not open battery packs!
Do not touch or short-circuit battery packs!
Slightly acidic, flammable fluid may leak from
defective li-ion battery packs!
If battery fluid leaks out and comes into
contact with your skin, rinse immediately
with plenty of water. If battery fluid leaks out
and comes into contact with your eyes, wash them
with clean water and seek medical attention imme-
diately.

6. Initial Operation

Safety guard
As illustrated, screw the safety guard (12) with the
additional handle (11) into one of the threaded
holes of the handle bar (9). Keep the distance to the
tool as short as possible. Tighten the additional
handle by applying force.
Handle bar
The handle bar (9) must be fitted as far as the
limit stop on the gearbox flange.
After releasing the clamping lever (10), the handle
bar (9) can be turned to the desired position. Firmly
tighten the clamping lever (10) again. The position
of the lever might need to be changed for this
purpose.
The position of the lever can be changed without
turning the clamping screw. For this purpose, raise
the lever, turn it and then lower the lever again (see
illustration, page 2).
When working, always position the lever in a
way that it cannot come into contact with the
tool.
