regulations applicable in your country to reduce the risk of fi re,
electric shock and personal injury.
Read all of this manual carefully before operating the tool.

General
1 Keep work area clean
Cluttered areas and benches can cause accidents.
2 Consider work area environment
Do not expose the tool to rain. Do not use the tool in damp or wet
conditions. Keep the work area well lit (250 - 300 Lux). Do not use
the tool where there is a risk of causing fi re or explosion, e.g. in the
presence of fl ammable liquids and gases.
3 Keep children away
Do not allow children, visitors or animals to come near the work area
or to touch the tool or the mains cable.
4 Dress properly
Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, as these can be caught in
moving parts. Wear protective hair covering to keep long hair out of
the way. When working outdoors, preferably wear suitable gloves
and non-slip footwear.
5 Personal protection
Always use safety glasses. Use a face or dust mask whenever the
operations may produce dust or fl ying particles. If these particles
might be considerably hot, also wear a heat-resistant apron.
Wear ear protection at all times. Wear a safety helmet at all times.
6 Guard against electric shock
Prevent body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces (e.g. pipes,
radiators, cookers and refrigerators). When using the tool under
extreme conditions (e.g. high humidity, when metal swarf is being
produced, etc.), electric safety can be improved by inserting an
isolating transformer or a (FI) earth-leakage circuit-breaker.
7 Do not overreach
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
8 Stay alert
Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the
tool when you are tired.
9 Secure workpiece
Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece. It is safer and it frees
both hands to operate the tool.
10 Connect dust extraction equipment
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure that these are connected and properly used.
11 Remove adjusting keys and wrenches
Always check that adjusting keys and wrenches are removed from
the tool before operating the tool.
12 Extension cables
Before use, inspect the extension cable and replace if damaged.
When using the tool outdoors, only use extension cables intended for
outdoor use and marked accordingly.
13 Use appropriate tool
The intended use is described in this instruction manual. Do not force
small tools or attachments to do the job of a heavy-duty tool. The tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.
Do not force the tool.
WARNING! The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those recommended in this
instruction manual may present a risk of personal injury.
14 Check for damaged parts
Before use, carefully check the tool and mains cable for damage.
Check for misalignment and seizure of moving parts, breakage of
parts, damage to guards and switches and any other conditions that
may affect its operation.
