5.2 Safety instructions for box column drills
• Never make warning signs on the power tool il-
legible.
• Secure the power tool to a solid, level and hori-
zontal surface. If the power tool can slip or wobble,
the tool attachment cannot be guided evenly and
safely.
• Keep the work surface clean, except for the
workpiece to be processed. Sharp-edged drilling
debris and object can cause injuries. Material mix-
tures are particularly dangerous. Light metal dust
can burn or explode.
• Set the correct speed prior to starting work. The
speed must be appropriate for the drilling diam-
eter and the material to be drilled. If the speed is
set incorrectly, the tool attachment may get stuck in
the workpiece.
• Only guide the tool attachment against the
workpiece when switched on. Otherwise, there is
a risk that the tool attachment will get stuck in the
workpiece and take the workpiece with it. This can
result in injuries.
• Do not place your hands in the drilling area
while the power tool is running. There is a dan-
ger of injury if you come into contact with the tool
attachment.
• Never remove drilling debris from the drilling
area whilst the electrical tool is running. Always
move the drive unit into the resting position and
switch the power tool off.
• Do not remove any drilling debris with bare
hands. There is a particular danger of injury due to
hot and sharp-edged metal debris.
• Break long pieces of drilling debris by interrupt-
ing the drilling process by turning the wheel
backwards. Long pieces of drilling debris pose a
danger of injury.
• Use the clamping devices to clamp the work-
piece in place. Do not work with workpieces that
are to small to be clamped in place. If you hold the
workpiece in your hand, you cannot stop it turning
and therefore prevent yourself getting injured.
• Switch the power tool off immediately if the tool
attachment blocks. The tool attachment blocks if:
- the power tool is overloaded or
- it gets stuck in the workpiece to be processed.
• Do not touch the tool attachment after working
until it has cooled down. The tool attachment be-
comes very hot when working.

• Inspect the cable on a regular basis and only
have damaged cables repaired by an author-
ised customer service centre. Replace damaged
extension cables. This ensures that safety of the
power tool is maintained.
• Store the unused power tool safely. The storage
location must be dry and lockable. This prevents
the power tool getting damaged by storage or being
operated by inexperienced people.
• Never leave the power tool until it has come to a
complete standstill. Tool attachments that are still
moving can cause injuries.
• Do not use the power tool with a damaged cable.
Do not touch the damaged cable and pull the
mains plug out if the cable gets damaged while
working. Damaged cables increase the risk of an
electric shock.
Protect yourself and you environment from acci-
dents using suitable precautionary measures!
• Do not look directly into the laser beam with unpro-
tected eyes.
• Never look into the path of the beam.
• Never point the laser beam towards reflecting sur-
faces and persons or animals. Even a laser beam
with a low output can cause damage to the eyes.
• Caution - methods other than those specified here
can result in dangerous radiation exposure.
• Never open the laser module. Unexpected exposure
to the beam can occur.
• If the mitre saw is not used for an extended period of
time, the batteries should be removed.
• The laser may not be replaced with a different type
of laser.
• Repairs of the laser may only be carried out by the
laser manufacturer or an authorised representative.
Adhere to the correct mains voltage!
Ensure that the mains voltage corresponds to the spec-
ifications on the type plate.
