blades and drills. These are sharp
and present an injury hazard.
Wear safety gloves when
•
changing attachments. This ena-
bles you to avoid injuries if the appli-
ance attachment has heated up after
use.
2) SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WHEN SAWING
Keep hands away from the
•
sawing area. Do not reach
underneath the workpiece. Al-
ways 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 kick-
back if the tool insert jams in the work-
piece.
Make sure that the footplate
•
is securely placed against the
workpiece during sawing. The
sawblade can tilt and lead to loss of
control over the power tool.
After you have finished work,
•
turn the power tool off and do
not pull the sawblade out of the
cut until it has come to a stand-
still. In this way you will avoid any
kickback and can safely put down the
power tool.
Use only undamaged saw-
•
blades in perfect condition. Bent
or blunt blades can break, adversely
affect the cut or cause kickback.
Do not brake the sawblade af-
•
ter switching the appliance off
by applying side pressure. The
sawblade may be damaged, break or
cause a kickback.
12
Tighten the material firmly. Do
•
not support the workpiece by
hand or foot. Do not touch any
objects or the ground with the saw run-
ning. 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.
Wait until the power tool has
•
stopped before placing it down.
The tool insert can tilt and lead to loss
of control over the power tool.
Switch the appliance off im-
•
mediately if the sawing blade
jams. Spread the saw cut out and pull
the blade out carefully. This can lead
to loss of control over the power tool.
3) SPECIAL SAFETY INFORMATION
DURING SANDING AND SCRAP-
ING
Only use the power tool for dry
•
sanding. Do not scrape moist
materials. Penetration of water into
the power tool increases the risk of
electric shock.
Avoid overheating the sanded
•
object and the sander itself. Pos-
sible fire hazard.
The workpiece gets hot dur-
•
ing grinding. Do not touch the
machined area, allow it to cool
down. There is a risk of burning. Do
not use coolants or the like.
Always empty the dust con-
•
tainer before work breaks.
Sanding dust in the dust sack, micro
filter, paper sack (or in the filter sack or
extraction system filter) can self-ignite
under unfavourable conditions such
as flying sparks caused by grinding
