2 Safety of persons
• Be careful, watch what you are doing and use an de-
vice sensibly. Do not use the tool if you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention when using the device can
result in serious injuries.
• Wear personal protection equipment and always wear
safety goggles. Wearing personal protection (such as
dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet or
ear protection, depending upon the type and use of
the device) reduces the risk of injury.
• Make sure that the appliance cannot start up acciden-
tally. If your finger is on the switch whilst carrying the
device this can lead to accidents.
• Remove keys and wrenches before switching on the
device. A tool or key which comes into contact with
rotating parts of the appliance can lead to injuries.
• Avoid abnormal working postures. Make sure you
stand squarely and keep your balance at all times. In
this way, you can control the device better in unexpec-
ted circumstances.
• Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep hair, clothes and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair
can get trapped in moving parts.
3 Usage and treatment of the device
• Do not overload the appliance. Use the correct tool for
your work. You will be able to work better and more

• Do not use an device with a defective switch. An device
tool that cannot be switched on or off is dangerous and
must be repaired.
• Keep unused device out of the reach of children. Do
not allow people who are not familiar with the appli-
ance or who have not read these instructions to use
the appliance. Device are dangerous if they are used
by inexperienced people.
• Clean your device carefully. Check whether moving
parts are functioning properly and not jamming, whe-
ther parts are broken or damaged enough that the
functioning of thisdevice is affected. Have damaged
parts repaired before using the appliance. Many acci-
dents are caused by badly maintained device.
• Make sure to use device, accessories, attachments,
etc. in accordance with these instructions. Take the
conditions in your work area and the job in hand into
account. Using device for any purpose other than the
one for which they are intended can lead to dangerous
situations.

Risidual risks
Even if used properly, residual risks can exist even if
the relevant safety regulations are complied with due to
the design determined by the intended purpose. Ob-
serving these instructions, and taking proper care, will
reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment.
• Injury by catapulted parts.
• Breaking or catapulting of knife pieces.
• Carbon monoxide poisioning when using the device
in closed or poorly ventilated rooms.
• Burning when touching hot parts.
• Impairment of hearing when working on the machine
for longer periods of time without ear protection.
In addition, in spite of all the precautionary measures
taken, non-obvious residual risks can still exist.Residual
risks can be minimised if the "Safety information" and the
"Intended usage" as well as the whole of the operating
instructions are observed.
