Safety rules
Keep your hands away from the cutting area and
the cutting disc. Hold the auxiliary handle with
your second hand.
When both hands hold the machine, they cannot
be injured by the cutting disc.
Always assume a safe standing position and hold
the power tool securely in both hands.
The power tool is guided more secure with both
hands.
Secure the workpiece.
A workpiece clamped with clamping
devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
The rated speed of cutting tools must be at least
equal to the maximum speed marked on the pow-
er tool.
Cutting discs or other cutting tools running with
overspeed can fly apart and cause injuries.
Always use correctly sized cuttings discs with the
fitting mounting bore.
Cutting discs that do not fit to the mounting com-
ponents of the biscuit jointer rotate irregularly and
lead to loss of control.
Use only the cutting tools listed in these operating
instructions.
Do not use cut-off discs or circular saw blades.
Do not use blunt or damaged router bits.
Blunt or damaged router bits cause increased fric-
tion, can become jammed and lead to imbalance.
Apply the machine to the workpiece only when
switched on.
Otherwise there is danger of kickback when the
cutting tool jams in the workpiece.
Never cut over metal objects, nails or screws.
The router bit can become damaged and lead to
increased vibrations.
Do not work materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.
Never reach into the sawdust ejector while the
router is running. Pull the mains plug before clean-
ing the sawdust ejector!
Always use the ejection adapter and work with ex-
ternal dust/chip extraction whenever possible.
Take protective measures if there is danger of for-
mation of combustible or explosive dust during op-
eration that can be hazardous to health.
Example: Some dusts can be carcinogenic. Wear
a dust mask and work with a dust/chip extraction
unit, if possible to connect.
The tool must only be used with the appropriate
guards fitted.
Always wait until the machine has come to a com-
plete stop before placing it down.
The tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control
over the power tool.
During operation, always ensure that the mains
and extension cable is to the rear away from the
device.
This prevents anyone from tripping over the cable
while working.
Do not carry the machine by the cable.
Move the switch to the "OFF" position before re-
moving the plug from the plug socket.
When the tool is reconnected to the mains acci-
dental starting of the machine is avoided, thus re-
ducing the risk of accidents.
Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the local
utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and
electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes dam-
age to property or electric shock.
Tools not in use must be locked away
safely in a dry place out of the reach
of children.
To mark the machine, do not drill into
the housing.
The protective insulation would be
bridged. Use stickers.
Never use the machine with a dam-
aged cable. Do not touch the dam-
aged cable and pull the mains plug
when the cable gets damaged during
operation.
Damaged cables increase the risk of
electric shock.
Residual risk. Although this information sheet and
the operating manuals for our electrical tools con-
tain extensive instructions on safe working with
electrical tools, every electrical tool involves cer-
