Take protective measures against inhalation of dust. Some materials can contain toxic
ingredients. Wear a dust mask and work with dust/ chip extraction when connectable.

be plugged into an electrical outlet. Always set the trigger switch to the locked OFF
position when installing or removing the battery pack.
•
Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing operations
where the operating tool could contact hidden wiring. Contact with a «live» wire will
also make exposed metal parts of the power tool «live» and shock the operator.

While operating the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide for a
secure stance. The power tool is guided more securely with both hands.

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 explosion. Penetrating a
water line causes property damage or may cause electric shock.

Battery tool use and care
•
Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charter that is suitable
for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery
pack.
•
Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
•
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, lie paperclips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from
one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a
fire.
•
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help.
