• Prior to starting work, use appropriate tool to
determine whether there are any hidden sup-
ply lines are located on the area you are work-
ing in. If in doubt, ask the relevant supply ser-
vices. Contact with power lines may cause fire
and electrical shock. Damaging a gas pipe may
cause an explosion. Damaging a water pipe leads
to considerable property damage and may cause
electrical shock.
• Wait until the power tool has come to a stand-
still before you put it down. The inserted tool
may otherwise jam and cause a loss of control
over the power tool.
• Secure the work piece. A work piece secured
using clamps or a vice is held more safely than
one held by hand.
• Keep your workplace clean. Mixed contamina-
tion by various materials is particularly danger-
ous. Light metal dust (e.g. aluminium) can ignite
or explode easily.
• Never use the power tool with a damaged
cable. Do not touch a damaged cable and pull
out the power plug immediately. Damaged
cables increase the risk of electric shock.
• Prevent overheating of the device and the
work piece. Excess heat may damage the tool
and the device.
• Shortly after being used, the tool may be very
hot. Allow a hot tool to cool down. Touching a
hot tool may cause burns.
• Never clean a hot tool with flammable liquids.
There is a risk of fire and explosion.
• Keep the handles dry and free of grease. Slip-
pery handles can lead to accidents.
• Always comply with the all applicable domes-
tic and international safety, health, and work-
ing regulations. Inform yourself before you start
work about the regulations that apply at the site of
the device.
• Remember that moving parts may also be located
behind ventilation and venting slots.
• Symbols affixed to your device may not be
removed or covered. Information on the device
that is no longer legible must be replaced immedi-
ately.

Dust extraction
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing paint,
some types of wood, minerals and metal may be
harmful to health. Touching of inhaling the dusts can
cause allergic reactions and/or ailments of the res-
piratory tract of the user or persons in the vicinity.
Certain dusts such as oak or beech dust are consid-
ered carcinogenic, particularly in combination with
wood treatment additives (chromate, wood preserva-
tives). Materials containing asbestos may only be
processed by experts.
– Always use a dust extraction facility.
– Make sure the workplace is well ventilated.
– Always wear a dust protection mask.
– Observe the regulations valid in your country for
the materials to be processed.
