lated handle surfaces when per-
forming work where the cutting
tool or screw may come into con-
tact with hidden wiring. Contact
with a live wire can also cause a charge
in metal parts of the appliance and result
in an electric shock.
Use suitable detectors in order to
•
find hidden supply lines or ask
the local utility company. Contact
with electrical cables can lead to electric
shock and fire, contact with a gas pipe
can result in an explosion. Damage to
a water pipe can lead to property dam-
aged and electric shock.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece
•
that is retained with clamping appliances
or a vice is held more securely than with
your hand.
Be very careful when handling
•
tools such as saws, scraper
blades and drills. These are sharp
and present an injury hazard.
Wear safety gloves when chang-
•
ing attachments. This enables you
to avoid injuries if the appliance attach-
ment has heated up after use.
2) SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WHEN SAWING
Keep hands away from the saw-
•
ing area. Do not reach under-
neath the workpiece. Always
stand to the side of the saw
when working. Upon contact with
the blade there is a risk of injury.
Only when the electric tool is
•
turned on should the sawing
blade be moved against the
workpiece. There is a risk of kickback
if the tool insert jams in the workpiece.
Make sure that the footplate
•
is securely placed against the
GB
workpiece during sawing. The saw-
blade can tilt and lead to loss of control
over the power tool.
After you have finished work,
•
turn the power tool off and do not
pull the sawblade out of the cut
until it has come to a standstill. In
this way you will avoid any kickback and
can safely put down the power tool.
Use only undamaged sawblades
•
in perfect condition. Bent or blunt
blades can break, adversely affect the cut
or cause kickback.
Do not brake the sawblade after
•
switching the appliance off by ap-
plying side pressure. The sawblade
may be damaged, break or cause a kick-
back.
Tighten the material firmly. Do not
•
support the workpiece by hand
or foot. Do not touch any objects or the
ground with the saw running. There is a
risk of kickback.
Hold the power tool tightly with
•
both hands while working and
ensure a secure footing. The power
tool is guided more securely with both
hands.
Wait until the power tool has
•
stopped before placing it down.
The tool insert can tilt and lead to loss of
control over the power tool.
Switch the appliance off immedi-
•
ately if the sawing blade jams.
Spread the saw cut out and pull the blade
out carefully. This can lead to loss of con-
trol over the power tool.
3) SPECIAL SAFETY INFORMATION
DURING SANDING AND
SCRAPING
Only use the power tool for dry
•
sanding. Do not scrape moist ma-
