times. This enables better control of the power tool in unex-
pected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extrac-
tion and collection facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-re-
lated hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for
your application. The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on
and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool's operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control..
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-
cordance with these instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of
the power tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Information about noise level and
vibrations
The values have been measured in conformity with EN 60745.
Acoustic pressure level L
= 84 dB (A).
pA
Acoustic power level L
= 85 dB (A).
wA
In accuracy of measurements K = 2 dB (A).
ATTENTION! Noise is generated during work!
Use ear protection!

h
In accuracy of measurements K = 1.5 m.s
The emission values specified (vibration, noise) were measured in
accordance with the test conditions stipulated in EN 60745 and are
intended for machine comparisons. They are also used for making
preliminary estimates regarding vibration and noise loads during
operation.
The emission values specified refer to the main applications for
which the power tool is used. If the electric power tool is used for
other applications, with other tools or is not maintained sufficient‑
ly prior to operation, however, the vibration and noise load may be
higher when the tool is used.
Take into account any machine idling times and downtimes to esti‑
mate these values more accurately for a specified time period. This
may significantly reduce the load during the machine operating
period.

Double insulation
To ensure maximum safety of the user, our tools are designed and
built to satisfy applicable European standards (EN standards). Tools
with double insulation are marked by the international symbol of
a double square. These tools must not be grounded and a two‑wire
cable is sufficient to supply them with power. Tools are shielded in
accordance with EN 55014.
Use
Shears are used for both straight and form shearing of sheet metal
without frays. The radius of shear depends on the strength of metal
plate, its rigidity and edge width, but needs to be at least 15 mm for
EN 16 E and 25 mm for EN 25 E.
User is liable for any unadvised use.
Putting into operation
Check whether the data on the rating plate match with the real
power supply voltage. The tool intended for 230 V~ may be also
connected to 220/240 V~. Check whether the plug type corre‑
sponds to the socket type.
Power On
Slide the switch button (1) forward to turn the machine on. If you
press the front part of the button it will lock, thus achieving con‑
stant run.
Power Off
Press the rear part of the switch button shortly (1) to unlock the
button and return it to the Off position by the pressure of the
spring.
Motor electronics
Starting current limitation
Electronically controlled continual running secures device acceler‑
ation without back thrust. Due to starting current limitation in the
device, 10 A pro‑tection is sufficient.
Protection against restarting
Prevent uncontrolled starting of the device after current supply cut
off. For re‑starting, the device must be first switched off and again
switched on.
Work instructions
Always guide the shears in the shear with power on, under the
from 75° to 80° angle. The you will achieve a clear shear and fa‑
vourable speed.
Do not force the shears in the shear.
Shearing radiuses
Do not tilt the shears to one side, push them carefully into the
shear. Too much shift reduces serviceability of knives and may re‑
sult in shears damage.
Sharp knives ensure neat shear and favourable speed, whilst sav‑
ing the shears.
Do not regrind the knives. We recommend either well‑timed
swinging of the knife or its replacement.
When shearing according to a pre‑drawn line, especially when cut‑
ting shapes, the shears should be in reverse position, i.e. with shoe
above the cut material.
