Noise hazards
Unprotected contact with high noise levels can
■
result in permanent hearing damage, hearing
loss and other problems such as tinnitus (rin-
ging, buzzing, whistling or humming noise in
the ears). A risk assessment and the introduc-
tion of suitable checks for such hazards are
therefore vital.
Suitable measures for reduction of the risk
■
include, amongst others, material insulation
measures in order to prevent workpieces from
"ringing".
Use suitable hearing protection.
■
Operate and maintain the tool according to
■
the recommendations in the sections Working
Instructions and Maintenance/Care to prevent
an unnecessarily high noise level.
Vibration hazards
Appropriate information is essential for car-
■
rying out a risk assessment of these hazards
and implementing suitable checks.
Vibrations can result in harm to the nerves and
■
blood supply of the hands and arms.
When working in cold conditions, wear warm
■
clothing and keep your hands warm and dry.
If you notice any numbness, tingling, pain or
■
whitening of the skin of your fingers or hands,
consult a qualified occupational health practiti-
oner and tell them about all of your tasks.
Operate and maintain the tool according to
■
the recommendations in this manual to prevent
an unnecessary increase in the vibration level.
Hold the tool with a light but secure grip be-
■
cause the risk of vibrations is generally higher
if more force is used during gripping.
If an operator is exposed to tool vibrations
■
for a long time, there is a risk that they will be
subject to repeating loads.
Additional safety instructions for
gas-operated devices
Gas-operated devices may only be used with
■
the gas cartridges listed in the Technical Data.
Apply extra caution when using gas-operated
■
devices because they can become hot, impai-
ring your grip and control.
Only use gas-operated devices in well-venti-
■
lated rooms.

Safety instructions
If liquid flammable gas comes into contact
■
with the skin, injuries may result.
Ensure that flammable materials are not
■
exposed to hot exhaust gases.
Do not use gas-operated devices in explosive
■
areas because sparks in the device can cause
fires or an explosion.
A small quantity of gas may be released
■
during normal operation with gas-operated
devices.
Gas canisters must be labelled according to
■
the relevant transport regulations.
Precautions for the gas cartridge
Handle the gas cartridge carefully and check
■
it for damage. Damaged gas cartridges can
explode and cause injuries.
Always read and comply with the instructions
■
on the gas cartridge.
Store the gas cartridge in a well-ventilated
■
area.
Do not expose the gas cartridge to direct
■
sunlight.
Do not leave gas cartridges in a vehicle or
■
luggage compartment in which the tempera-
ture could increase. Otherwise, they could
explode. Even a used empty gas cartridge
still contains flammable propellant gas,
which could expand and cause a canister to
explode.
Do not store gas cartridges in an ambient
■
temperature of greater than 40 °C.
The fuel cell contains pressurised flammable
■
gas. If it is exposed to temperatures greater
than 40 °C, gas could escape or it could
burst causing a fire.
Do not inhale the gas.
■
Do not burn or recycle empty gas cartridges.
■
Never spray the gas towards a human body.
■
Only remove the rubber plugs on the bottom
■
side of the gas cartridge for disposal pur-
poses.
Do not make any holes in the gas cartridge,
■
e.g. by hammering a nail into it.
Disposal must be carried out in accordance
■
with official regulations.
Dispose of contents/containers in accordance
■
with the sorting instructions provided by the
licensed waste collector.
