Safety Instructions for Box Column
Drills
• Never make the warning labels on the power tool
illegible.
• Attach the power tool to a solid, flat and horizon-
tal surface. If the power tool can slip or wobble, the
bit may not be guided smoothly and safely.
• Keep the work area clean except for the work-
piece to be machined. Sharp-edged drilling chips
and objects can cause injury. Material mixtures are
particularly dangerous. Light metal dust can burn or
explode.
• Set the correct speed before starting work. The
speed must be appropriate for the drill diameter
and the material to be drilled. At an incorrectly set
speed the bit may get jammed in the workpiece.
• Only when the device is turned on should the bit
be moved against the work piece. Otherwise there
is a danger that the bit will get jammed in the work-
piece and the workpiece will rotate with the bit. This
can lead to injuries.
• Do not put your hands in the area of the drill
while the power tool is running. Upon contact with
the bit is a risk of injury.
• Never remove drilling chips from the drilling
area while the power tool is running.Always put
the drive mechanism in the standby position first and
then turn on the power tool.
• Do not remove accumulated drill chips with your
bare hands. There is a risk of injury due to hot and
sharp metal shavings in particular.
• Break up long drilling chips by interrupting the
drilling operation with a short backward rotation
of the rotary wheel. Long drilling chips may cause
injury.
• Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery and lead
to loss of control.
• Use clamps to hold the workpiece in place. Do
not work on any workpieces that are too small
for clamping. If you hold the workpiece by hand,
you cannot hold it sufficiently tightly against rotation
and may hurt yourself.
• Switch the power tool off immediately if the bit
jams. The bit jams when:
- the power tool is overloaded or
- the workpiece to be machined is jammed.
• Do not touch the bit after working before it has
cooled down. The bit is very hot during use.
• Inspect the cable regularly and have a damaged
cable repaired only by an authorised customer
service centre. Replace damaged extension
cables. This will ensure that the power tool remains
safe.
• Store unused power tools in a safe place. The
storage place should be dry and lockable. This
prevents the power tool from being damaged as a
result of being stored or operated by inexperienced
people.
• Never leave the tool before it has come to a com-
plete standstill. Afterrunning bits can cause injury.
• Do not use the power tool with a damaged cable.
Do not touch the damaged cable and pull the
mains plug if the cable is damaged while wor-
king. Damaged cables increase the risk of electric
shock.

Attention: Laser radiation
Do not stare into the beam
Class 2 laser
Protect yourself and you environment from acci-
dents using suitable precautionary measures!
• Do not look directly into the laser beam with unpro-
tected eyes.
• Never look into the path of the beam.
• Never point the laser beam towards reflecting sur-
faces and persons or animals. Even a laser beam
with a low output can cause damage to the eyes.
• Caution - methods other than those specified here
can result in dangerous radiation exposure.
• Never open the laser module. Unexpected exposure
to the beam can occur.
• If the mitre saw is not used for an extended period
of time, the batteries should be removed.
• The laser may not be replaced with a different type
of laser.
• Repairs of the laser may only be carried out by the
laser manufacturer or an authorised representative.

Residual risks

The machine has been built according to the state of
the art and the recognised technical safety require-
ments. However, individual residual risks can arise
during operation.
• Health hazard due to electrical power, with the use of
improper electrical connection cables.
• Furthermore, despite all precautions having been met,
some non-obvious residual risks may still remain.
• Residual risks can be minimised if the „safety instruc-
tions" and the „Proper use" are observed along with
the whole of the operating instructions.
• Do not load the machine unnecessarily: excessive
pressure when sawing will quickly damage the saw
blade, which results in reduced output of the machine
in the processing and in cut precision.
• When cutting plastic material, please always use
clamps: the parts which should be cut must always
be fixed between the clamps.
• Avoid accidental starting of the machine: the oper-
ating button may not be pressed when inserting the
plug in an outlet.
• Use the tool that is recommended in this manual. In
doing so, your saw provides optimal performance.
• Hands may never enter the processing zone when the
machine is in operation. Release the handle button
and switch off the machine prior to any operations.
• Prior to any adjustment, maintenance or service work
disconnect the mains power plug!
