• Clean the ventilation slots of your power tool
regularly. The motor fans draw dust into the
housing and a large deposit of metal dust can
cause electrical hazards.
• When working, hold the power tool firmly with
both hands and ensure you have a stable foot-
ing. The power tool can be guided in a safer fash-
ion when you use two hands.
• Secure the work piece. A work piece secured
using clamps or a vice is held more safely than
one held by hand.
• 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.
• Keep the workplace clean. Mixed contamina-
tion by different substances is particularly danger-
ous. Light metal dust (e.g. aluminium) can easily
ignite or explode.
• Do not use the electrical tool with a damaged
cable. Never touch a damaged cable and
immediately pull out the plug. Damaged
cables increase the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid overheating the device and workpiece.
Excess heat can damage both tool and product.
• Keep the handles dry and free from grease.
Slippery handles can cause accidents.
• Always heed the applicable national and inter-
national safety, health and labour regula-
tions. Before commencing work, inform yourself
regarding the regulations valid at the location
where the product is to be used.
• Remember that moving parts may also be located
behind ventilation and venting slots.

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.
