Additional Safety Instructions
WARNING
• Accessories must be stored and handled with care in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
• The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against slipping, e.g. using clamps.
Large workpieces must be sufficiently supported.
• We recommend connecting a residual current circuit-breaker (FI) upstream.
When the tool is shut down via the FI circuit-breaker, it must be checked and
cleaned. See Chapter 9 for more information on cleaning the motor.
• Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be used.
• Disconnect the tool from the mains power supply before making any
adjustments, converting or servicing the machine.
• A damaged or cracked handle must be replaced. Never operate a machine
with a defective handle.
• A damaged or cracked hand guard must be replaced. Never operate a machine
with a defective protective cap.

cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Examples of such chemicals
could include:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies depending on how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
This also applies to dust from other materials such as some timber types (like oak or
beech dust), metals and asbestos. It may also lead to allergic reactions and respiratory
disease. Do not let dust enter the body.
Observe the relevant guidelines and national regulations for your material, staff,
application and place of application (e.g. occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
Collect the particles generated at the source and avoid deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work to ensure fewer particles enter the environment
in an uncontrolled manner.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
• do not direct the escaping particles and the exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby
persons or on dust deposits,
• use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers,
