• Service the tool regularly and check for signs of damage, dirt, incorrect settings, wear and tear or other
issues that may present a hazard. Ensure that damaged devices are repaired by a specialist before use.
Poorly maintained tools often lead to accidents.
• Use the tool and its accessories only for the specified purpose and in accordance with these original
operating instructions. Also pay attention to the working conditions and the task that you plan to carry
out. Improper use can lead to hazardous situations.
• Only use accessories and attachments that are compatible with the slots on the device.
• Never attempt to switch off safety mechanisms.
• Switch the device off immediately if the drive becomes blocked.
• Keep the handles and surfaces of the tool dry, clean and free of oil or lubricants. Slipping during operation
leads to a loss of control and accidents.
• Hold the tool firmly. A sudden stop of the drive transfers the kinetic energy to the tool itself. This may
cause the tool to fall out of your hands – risk of injury!
• Condensation may form when the product is brought from a cold room into a warm one (e.g. during
transportation). This can damage the product! For this reason, allow the product to warm up to room
temperature before using it or inserting the battery. This may take several hours.

injury and/or fire hazards.
• Observe the safety and handling instructions in the original operating instructions of the battery and its
charging device.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when it is connected to the battery. Remove the battery before
moving away from the appliance.

• Keep your workstation clean. Keep the work area well lit. A disorganised workstation or poor lighting can
cause accidents.
• Keep children and other people away from the workstation! Distractions can cause accidents.
• Never use the product next to or near flammable liquids or gases, air/gas mixtures (petrol vapours) or
flammable solids/dust. Sparks may be generated when the product is used – risk of fire or explosion!
