Handle power tools and tool bits with
care. Check whether moving parts
function perfectly and do not jam and
check whether parts are broken or
damaged in such a way that the func-
tion of the power tool is impaired.
Have damaged parts repaired before
using the power tool. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
■
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
■
Use the power tool, tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions.
Take account of the working condi-
tions and the work to be performed.
Use of power tools for operations
different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
■
Have the power tool repaired only by
a qualifi ed expert using only genuine
replacement parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
6) Device-Specifi c Safety Notices
Always wear safety goggles
and hearing protection when
working with the device!
Keep people who are not
involved away. The machine
must never be operated if
there are people, in particular
children, or pets nearby.
Objects which are propelled

■
Always wear sturdy footwear and
long trousers when working with the
device. We also recommend using
robust work gloves and wearing a fi ne
dust mask if necessary.
■
Only ever operate the device with re-
placement cutting elements from the
manufacturer. Never use metal cutting
elements!
■
Do not reach into the rotating
cutting elements. Always wait until
the cutting elements have come to
a complete standstill. Only remove
blockages or foreign bodies when the
device is switched off.
■
Danger from loud noises! Personal
hearing protection, e. g. ear defend-
ers or other hearing protection, is
recommended when working with
and in the vicinity of the switched-on
device. Limit the length of exposure
where possible. If in spite of hearing
protection any kind of discomfort
arises, stop work immediately and
check the hearing protection to estab-
lish whether it fi ts and works properly.
Make sure that it provides an appro-
priate level of protection for the noise
level which is produced by the device
which is used.
■
Only ever transport the device with
the cutting blades at a standstill.
Danger from vibrations!
■
When the device is used, the user
is exposed to vibrations which may
lead to loss of the sense of touch,
numbness, a tingling sensation
and a reduction in the gripping
strength of the hand. Long-term
exposure may result in chronic
complaints. If possible, limit the
level of exposure to vibrations and
wear vibration-reducing gloves.
