Stanley Fatmax FMER524, Manual

ENGLISH

(Original instructions)

5

e.  Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or 

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any 

other condition that may affect the power tools 

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired 

before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly 

maintained power tools.

f.  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less 

likely to bind and are easier to control.

g.  Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in 

accordance with these instructions, taking into 

account the working conditions and the work to be 

performed. Use of the power tool for operations different 

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

h.  Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and 

free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping 

surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the 

tool in unexpected situations.

5. Service

a.  Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair 

person using only identical replacement parts. This 

will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Additional power tool safety warnings

Warning! Additional safety warnings for 

rotary hammers

•  Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause

  hearing loss.

•  Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss 

of control can cause personal injury.

•  Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when 

performing an operation where the cutting accessory 

may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting 

accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed 

metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the 

operator an electric shock.

•  Never use a chisel accessory in rotary mode. The 

accessory will bind in the material and rotate the drill.

•  Use clamps or another practical way to secure and 

support the work piece to a stable platform. Holding 

the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable 

and may lead to loss of control.

•  Before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings, check for 

the location of wiring and pipes.

•  Avoid touching the tip of the drill bit after drilling so 

as to avoid scalding.

•  The intended use is described in this instruction 

manual.  The use of any accessory or attachment or 

performance of any operation with this tool other than 

those recommended in this instruction MANUAL MAY 

present  a  risk  of  personal  injury  and/or  damage  to 

property.

Note: Mains voltage: When connecting to the mains, it is 

imperative to verify if the voltage of the mains matches that of 

the power tool. If the mains voltage exceeds the voltage 

indicated on the power tool, the user may become severely 

injured in an accident, and the tool may be damaged. On the 

contrary, if the mains voltage is lower than the voltage 

required by the tool, the motor may be damaged as a result. 

Thus, if it is not possible to verify the voltage, it is imperative 

not to plug in to the power source

Residual risks

Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which

may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These

risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc. In spite of the

application of the relevant safety regulations and the

implementation of safety devices, certain risks cannot be

avoided. These are:

•  Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.

•  Injuries  caused  when  changing  any  parts,  blades  or 

accessories.

•  Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using 

any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular 

breaks.

•  Impairment of hearing.

•  Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when 

using your tool (example: working with wood, especially 

oak, beech and MDF.)

Safety of others

•  This appliance is not intended for use by persons 

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or 

mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, 

unless they have been given supervision or instruction 

concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible 

for their safety.

•  Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not 

play with the appliance.
