Special safety instructions.
This double-insulated power tool is equipped
with a polarized plug (one contact is wider than
the other). The plug will only fit into the polar-
ized socket outlet in one position. Turn the plug
if it does not fit completely into the socket out-
let. If the plug still does not fit, have a qualified
electrician install a polarized socket outlet. Do
not modify or alter the plug under any circum-
stances.
Double-insulated power tools nei-
ther require a three-core power cable nor a
power connection with ground contact.
Operate the power tool only off of power sup-
plies whose voltage and frequency values cor-
respond with the values on the type plate of the
power tool.
When operating the power tool in a damp envi-
ronment, it must be connected via a ground-
fault circuit interrupter (g.f.c.i.).
Using special
rubber protective gloves and footwear
increase your own safety.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your
body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
Before mounting or replacing application tools
or accessories, pull the power plug.
This pre-
ventive safety measure rules out the danger of
injuries through accidental starting of the
power tool.
Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping
surfaces when performing operations where
the application tool could contact hidden wir-
ing or its own power cord.
Contact with a
“live” wire will also make exposed metal
parts of the power tool “live” and shock the
operator.
Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the
local utility company for assistance.
Contact
with electric lines can lead to fire and electric
shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo-
sion. Penetrating a water line causes property
damage or may cause an electric shock.
Do not direct the power tool against yourself,
other persons or animals.
Danger of injury
from sharp or hot application tools.
For all work or when changing application
tools, always wear protective gloves.
Danger
of injury from the sharp edges of the applica-
tion tools. Application tools can become very
hot while working. Danger of burns!
Grasp the power tool in such a safe manner
that your body never comes into contact with
the application tool, especially while working
with application tools such as saw blades or
other blades pointed toward the grasping
range.
Touching sharp tips or cutting edges
can lead to injuries.
The power tool is not permitted for operations
or working with water supply.
Water penetrat-
ing the motor casing can lead to electric
shock.
Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or signs
onto the power tool.
If the insulation is dam-
aged, protection against an electric shock will
be ineffective. Adhesive labels are recom-
mended.
Clean the ventilation openings on the power
tool at regular intervals. The motor blower
draws dust into the housing.
An excessive
accumulation of metallic dust can cause an
electrical hazard.
