Additional Safety Instructions - Scheppach RS400 Original Bedienungsanleitung

c) Avoid unintentional startup. Make sure that
the electric tool is switched off before you
connect it to the power supply and/or battery,
pick it up or carry it.
Keeping your finger on the switch when you
carry the electric tool or having the electric tool
switched on when you connect it to the power
supply may result in accidents.
d) Remove the setting tools or spanners before
switching on the electric tool.
A tool or spanner that is located in a rotating part
of the electric tool may result in injuries.
e) Avoid abnormal posture. Make sure that you
have secure footing and always maintain
your balance.
This will allow you to better control the electric
tool in unexpected situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear wide
clothing or jewellery. Keep hair and clothing
away from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery and long hair can be
caught by moving parts.
g) If dust extraction and collection devices can
be mounted, these must be connected and
used properly.
Using a dust extraction unit can reduce hazards
caused by dust.
h) Do not allow yourself to be lulled into a false
sense of security and do not ignore the safe-
ty rules for electric tools, even when you
have used it many times and have become
familiar with it.
Careless actions can result in serious injuries
within a fraction of a second.
4. Using and handling the electric tool
a) Do not overload the electric tool. Use the
electric tool intended for the work.
The suitable electric tool allows you to work bet-
ter and more safely in the indicated power range.
b) Do not use an electric tool whose switch is
defective.
An electric tool that cannot be switched on or off
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket and/or take
out a removable battery before setting the
device, changing insertion tool parts or put-
ting the electric tool away.
These precautions will prevent the electric tool
from starting unintentionally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the reach
of children. Do not let people use the electric
tool who are not familiar with it or who have
not read these instructions.
Electric tools are dangerous if they are used by
inexperienced people.

e) Maintain electric tools and insertion tools
with care. Check whether moving parts func-
tion properly and do not get stuck and wheth-
er parts are broken or are damaged and thus
adversely affect the electric tool function.
Have damaged parts repaired before using
the electric tool.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
electric tools.
f) Always keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp cut-
ting edges seize up less often and are easier to
guide.
g) Use electric tools, insertion tools, etc. ac-
cording to these instructions. Take the work-
ing conditions and the activity to be carried
out into consideration.
Using electric tools for applications other than the
intended uses can lead to dangerous situations.
h) Keep the handles and gripping surfaces dry,
clean and free of oil and grease.
Slippery handles and gripping surfaces prevent
safe operation and control of the electrical tool in
unforeseen situations.
5. Service

ified specialists and only with original spare
parts.
This ensures that safety of the electric tool is
maintained.
