you have better control over the tool in
unexpected situations.
• Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear
loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. Keep
your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose-fitting clothing,
jewellery and long hair can get caught in
moving parts.
• If dust extraction and dust collection
equipment is available, this should be
connected and used correctly. The use of
such equipment can reduce the risk of
dust-related problems.
USING AND LOOKING AFTER
POWER TOOLS
• Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for the planned work.
The tool does the job better and safer
when used at the rate for which it was
designed.
• Do not use the tool if it cannot be
switched on and off with the power
switch. Power tools that cannot be
controlled with the power switch are
dangerous and must be repaired.
• Pull out the plug and/or remove the
battery before making any adjustments,
changing accessories or putting the power
tool away. These safety precautions
reduce the risk of accidently starting the
power tool.
• Store power tools out of the reach of
children when not in use. Never allow
children, or anyone who is unfamiliar with
the power tool and these instructions, to
use the tool. Power tools are dangerous if
used by inexperienced persons.
• Keep the power tool properly maintained.
Check that moving parts are properly
adjusted and do not jam, and that no
parts are incorrectly fitted or damaged.
Check for other factors that could affect
functionality. If the power tool is
damaged, it must be repaired before
being used again. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.

• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam
and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and bits
etc., in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the actual working
conditions and the work that is to be
done. It can be dangerous to use power
tools for purposes other than those they
are intended to be used for.
SERVICE
The power tool must only be serviced by qualified
personnel using identical spare parts. This will
ensure that the power tool remains safe to use.
SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
HAMMER DRILLS
• Wear ear protection when working with a
hammer drill. Exposure to loud noise can
cause hearing impairments.
• Always use the support handle and hold
the tool firmly with both hands while
working. Loss of control can result in
serious personal injury.
• Hold the power tool by the insulated grips
when working in areas where the tool
could come into contact with concealed
electrical cables or its own power cord.
Contact with a live cable will cause the
metal parts on the tool to also become
live – risk of electric shock.
• Secure if possible the workpiece with
clamps, clips or a vice.
• Switch off the tool and wait until all
moving parts have completely stopped
before putting down the tool.
• Ensure adequate lighting of the workplace.
• Do not overload the tool and reduce the
motor speed. Press the drill against the
workpiece just hard enough to allow it to
work its way into the material. This
produces a better result and the tool lasts
longer.
