16 kg, there is a danger of the
machine slipping or falling when
attaching or releasing the weight
relief system. Pay attention also
that the machine does not jam on
the trigger snap or on the hook of
the breaking saw.
Work cautiously!
3.1.2 Electrical connection
The breaking saw is operated with electrical energy
and must be connected to the mains power supply
by a qualified electrician in accordance with the VDE
directives and the regulations of the local public util-
ity.
Hand-held electrical machines must be equipped
with an operator protection switch (30 mA residual-
current circuit breaker) (Order No. 001 603 511) to
increase the safety. Machines with low voltages are
excluded from this requirement.
