Supplementary notes

■ Secure the workpiece. A workpiece securely
held by a clamping device or vice is much safer
than one held in your hand.
■ Hold the power tool firmly. High reaction
moments can occur for brief periods while
tightening and loosening screws.
■
Switch the power off immediately if the tool
blocks while in use. Be prepared for high reac-
tion moments as these can cause kickback.
■ While working on the appliance, transporting
GB
it or storing it, always set the rotation direc-
MT
tion switch to the centre position (lock).
This prevents the power tool from starting up
unintentionally.
■ CAUTION, POWER CABLES! DANGER!
Ensure that you are not likely to contact power,
gas or water supply lines when you are working
with the power tool. If necessary, check with
a service line detector before you start to cut
or drill into a surface.
