Use of an extractor system is recommended Always install an RCD with a maximum trip current of 30 mA upstream
When the machine is shut down via the RCD, it must be checked and cleaned (See "Cleaning" )
When working in dusty conditions, ensure that ventilation openings are not blocked If it becomes necessary to remove
dust, first disconnect the power tool from the mains supply (use non-metallic objects) and avoid damaging internal
components
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be used
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any adjustments, converting or servicing the machine
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be replaced Never operate a machine with a defective additional
handle
A damaged or cracked hand guard must be replaced Never operate a machine with a defective hand guard
Reduce dust exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool may contain chemicals known to cause cancer, allergic
reaction, respiratory disease, birth defects or other reproductive harm Some of these substances include: lead (in
paint containing lead), mineral dust (from bricks, concrete etc ), additives used for wood treatment (chromate, wood
preservatives), some wood types (such as oak or beech dust), metals, asbestos
The risk from exposure to such substances will depend on how long you or bystanders are being exposed
Do not let particles enter the body
Do the following to reduce exposure to these substances: ensure good ventilation of the workplace and wear
appropriate protective equipment, such as respirators able to filter microscopically small particles
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material, staff, application and place of application (e g occupational health
and safety regulations, disposal)
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid deposits in the surrounding area
Use suitable accessories for special work In this way, fewer particles enter the environment in an uncontrolled manner
Use a suitable extraction unit
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
• Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep clean using a vacuum cleaner Sweeping or blowing stirs up dust
• Vacuum or wash the protective clothing Do not blow, beat or brush
