1) SPECIAL SAFETY INFORMATION
FOR THE CORDLESS COMBINATION
TOOL
•
Use the additional handles deliv-
ered with the appliance. The loss of
control can result in injuries.
• Hold the electric tool by the insu-
lated handle surfaces when per-
forming work where the cutting
tool or screw may come into con-
tact with hidden wiring. Contact
with a live wire can also cause a charge
in metal parts of the appliance and result
in an electric shock.
•
Use suitable detectors in order to
ind hidden supply lines or ask
the local utility company. Contact
with electrical cables can lead to electric
shock and ire, contact with a gas pipe
can result in an explosion. Damage to
a water pipe can lead to property dam-
aged and electric shock.
•
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece
that is retained with clamping appliances
or a vice is held more securely than with
your hand.
•
Be very careful when handling
tools such as saws, scraper
blades and drills. These are sharp
and present an injury hazard.
Wear safety gloves when chang-
•
ing attachments. This enables you
to avoid injuries if the appliance attach-
ment has heated up after use.
2) SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WHEN SAWING
•
Keep hands away from the saw-
ing area. Do not reach under-
neath the workpiece. Always
stand to the side of the saw
when working. Upon contact with
the blade there is a risk of injury.
•
Only when the electric tool is
turned on should the sawing
blade be moved against the
workpiece. There is a risk of kickback
if the tool insert jams in the workpiece.
•
Make sure that the footplate
is securely placed against the
workpiece during sawing. The
sawblade can tilt and lead to loss of con-
trol over the power tool.
After you have inished work,
•
turn the power tool off and do not
pull the sawblade out of the cut
until it has come to a standstill. In
this way you will avoid any kickback and
can safely put down the power tool.
•
Use only undamaged sawblades
in perfect condition. Bent or blunt
blades can break, adversely affect the
cut or cause kickback.
•
Do not brake the sawblade after
switching the appliance off by
applying side pressure. The saw-
blade may be damaged, break or cause
a kickback.
Tighten the material irmly. Do
•
not support the workpiece by
hand or foot. Do not touch any ob-
jects or the ground with the saw running.
There is a risk of kickback.
•
Hold the power tool tightly with
both hands while working and
ensure a secure footing. The
power tool is guided more securely with
both hands.
