• The device connecting plug must match the sock-
et. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed devices. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
• Avoid physical contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and re-
frigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Keep the device away from rain and moisture. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
• Do not use the cable for another purpose, for ex-
ample, carrying or hanging the device or pulling the
plug out of the socket. Keep the cable away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving device parts. Dam-
aged or coiled cables increase the risk of an electric
shock.
• If you work with an power tool outdoors, only use
extension cables that are also permitted for outdoor
use. Using an extension cable permitted for outdoor
use reduces the risk of an electric shock.
• Connect the power tool to the mains via a socket
outlet with a maximum fuse rating of 16A. We rec-
ommend the installation of a residual current device
with a nominal tripping current of no more than 30
mA. Seek advice from your electrical installer.
Personal safety
• The operating personnel must be at least 18 years
of age.
• Children may not work with this product.
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use the device while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication.
• A moment of carelessness while operating the elec-
trical device may result in serious personal injury.
• Wear personal protective equipment and always
safety goggles. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will re-
duce personal injuries.
• Wear hearing protection. Excessive noise can result
in a loss of hearing.
• Wear a dust protection mask. When machining wood
and other materials, harmful dust may be generated.
Do not machine material containing asbestos!
• Wear safety goggles. Sparks created during work or
fragments, chippings and dust ejected by the device
can case sight loss.

• Prevent unintentional starting. Make sure that the
switch is in the "OFF" position before inserting the
plug into the socket.
• Keeping your finger on the switch or having the de-
vice switched on when you connect it to the power
supply may result in accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or screwdriver before
turning the device on. A tool or spanner that is lo-
cated in a rotating device part may result in injuries.
• Do not overestimate yourself. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables better control
of the device in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewel-
lery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away from mov-
ing parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
Careful handling and use of power tools
• Do not overload your tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. These precautionary measures will pre-
vent the device from starting unintentionally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and Do not let people use the device if they are not
familiar with it or if they have not read these instruc-
tions. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
• Maintain your device with care. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the device's
operation. Have damaged parts repaired before us-
ing the device.
• Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools. Always keep your cutting tools sharp
and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
• Use power tools, insert tools, etc. according to these
instructions and as prescribed for that particular
type of equipment. taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed.
