j) Ensure that other people remain at a safe dis-
tance to your workspace. Anyone who enters
the workspace must wear personal protective
equipment. Fragments of the workpiece or
broken attachment parts can become airborne
and cause injury – even outside the immediate
working area.
k) Hold the power tool only by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing work
during which the attachment part can contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a
live cable may also energise metal parts of the
appliance and result in an electric shock.
l) Always hold the power tool firmly. When
running up to full speed, the torque of the motor
can cause the power tool to twist.
m) If possible, use clamps to hold the workpiece in
position. Never hold a small workpiece in one
hand and the power tool in the other while
you are using it. By clamping small workpieces,
you keep both hands free for better control of the
power tool. When cutting round workpieces such
as dowels, rods or pipes, be aware that these
can roll away, which can cause that the tool jams
and is thrown towards you.
n) Hold the power cord away from any rotating
accessories. If you lose control of the appliance,
the cord may get cut or caught and your hand
or arm could get caught in the rotating attach-
ment part.
o) Never put the power tool down until the at-
tachment part has come to a complete stand-
still. The rotating attachment part could come
into contact with the surface and cause you to
lose control of the power tool.
p) When changing attachment parts or the set-
tings on the appliance, tighten the collet nut,
the chuck or other fixing elements tightly.
Loose fastening elements can shift unexpectedly
and lead to loss of control; unfastened, rotating
components will be ejected by force.

q) Do not leave the power tool running while
you carry it. Accidental contact of your cloth-
ing with the rotating attachment part could lead
to a physical injury.
r) Clean the ventilation slits of your power tool
regularly. The engine fan draws dust into the
housing and a strong accumulation of metal dust
can cause electrical hazards.
s) Do not use the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks can ignite such materials.
t) Do not use any attachment parts that require
liquid coolant. The use of water or other liquid
coolants may lead to an electric shock.
