• Never clean hot tools with flammable

agents – risk of fire and/or explosion.

• In addition to these instructions, you

should always comply with local
regulations and laws concerning health,
safety and the environment.

• Do not remove or cover symbols and

markings on the product. Replace any
stickers that have become illegible or lost.

VIBRATION

The total vibration value ah for the handle that
vibrates most must be specified, in similarity
with the uncertainty K.

Minimisation of noise and
vibration

To reduce noise and vibrations when in use,
limit the time the tool is in use. Use power
modes with low vibration mode and noise
levels, and use suitable safety equipment.
Take the following precautions to minimise the
risks of exposure to vibrations and/or noise.

• Only use the product as it is intended to

be used and in accordance with these
instructions.

• Make sure that the product is in good

condition.

• Use accessories in good condition, and

which are suitable for the purpose.

• Keep a firm grip on the handles/grips.
• Maintain the product in accordance with

these instructions and keep it well
lubricated (where appropriate).

Plan the work so that exposure to heavy
vibrations is spread over a longer period.

SYMBOLS

Read the instructions.

• Find out whether sanding the surface in

question can product toxic dust and/or
fumes. Dust/fumes from wood, metal and
paint etc. can cause allergic reactions
and/or can be harmful to health. Observe
special care and avoid inhaling and skin
contact with such materials. Materials
that contain asbestos should only be
handled by qualified personnel.

• Do not put your hands under the

workpiece – risk of personal injury.

• Make sure there are no nails, screws or

other foreign objects in the workpieces.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Hold the power tool by the insulated grips

when working in areas where the tool
may come into contact with concealed
electrical cables or its own power cord.
Contact with a live cable will cause the
metal parts on the tool to also become
live – risk of electric shock.

• Before starting work on walls, ceilings or

floors, check that there are no concealed
electrical cables or conduits. Use a live
wire detector, or ask an electrician for
help. Failure to observe these instructions
could result in the risk of fire, explosion,
electric shock, personal injury and/or
material damage.

• Avoid accidental starting. Switch off the

tool if the power supply is disconnected,
e.g. as a result of a power cut or if the
power cord is pulled out.

• Secure the workpiece. Secure the

workpiece with clamps or a vice. Never
hold the workpiece with your hand.

• Keep the work area clean. The mixing of

dust from different materials is especially
dangerous. Dust from light metals, e.g.
aluminium, can ignite or explode.

• Avoid overheating the tool and workpiece

– risk of material damage.

• Do not touch accessories during or

immediately after use – risk of burn injury.
