Keep cutting tools clean and sharp. Carefully
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edg-
es are less likely to jam and are easier to control.
J
Use the electrical power tool, accessories,
inserted tools etc. in accordance with these
instructions and advice, and the stipulations
drawn up for this particular type of device. In
doing this, take into account the working condi-
tions and the task in hand. The use of electrical
power tools for purposes other than those in-

Safety advice relating
specifically to this device
J
Securely support the workpiece. Use clamps or
a vice to grip the workpiece firmly. This is much
safer than holding it in your hand.
J
Danger of fire from flying sparks!
Machining metal creates flying sparks. For
this reason, always make sure that nobody is
placed in any danger and that there are no in-
flammable materials near the working area.
J
Warning! Be aware that persons operating
the tool or in its vicinity may be at risk of being
in contact with or inhaling dusts.
J
Take all the necessary safety precautions in
relation to dusts. Working with this tool can give
rise to dusts that may be hazardous to health,
inflammable or explosive.
J
Harmful or poisonous dusts can, for example,
arise from machining paints containing lead, or
from certain types of hardwoods or metals.
Some dusts are classed as carcinogenic. Wear
a breathing mask and use a suitable dust / chip
vacuum extraction device.
J
Warning! Keep your working area clean.
Mixtures of materials can be particularly dan-
gerous. Light metal dust, for example, may
burn or explode.
J m Warning! Danger of electric shock
from metal dust!
Machining metal can result in electrically con-
ductive dust being deposited inside the device.
In these circumstances the inside of the motor
compartment must be blown out at frequent in-
tervals with compressed air, vacuum extraction
