5. Safety information

Attention! The following basic safety measures must be
observed when using electric tools for protection against
electric shock, and the risk of injury and fire. Read all these
notices before using the electric tool and keep the safety in-
structions for later reference.
Safe work
1. Keep the work area orderly
- Disorder in the work area can lead to accidents.
2. Take environmental influences into account
- Do not expose electric tools to rain.
- Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet environ-
ment.
- Make sure that the work area is well- illuminated.
- Do not use electric tools where there is a risk of fire
or explosion.
3. Protect yourself from electric shock
- Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g. pipes,
radiators, electric ranges, cooling units).
4. Keep children away
- Do not allow other persons to touch the equipment or
cable, keep them away from your work area.
5. Securely store unused electric tools
- Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry, el-
evated or closed location out of the reach of children.
6. Do not overload your electric tool
- They work better and more safely in the specified out-
put range.
7. Use the correct electric tool
- Do not use low- output electric tools for heavy work.
- Do not use the electric tool for purposes for which it
is not intended. For example, do not use handheld
circular saws for the cutting of branches or logs.
- Do not use the electric tool to cut firewood.
8. Wear suitable clothing
- Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which can
become entangled in moving parts.
- When working outdoors, anti- slip footwear is recom-
mended.
- Tie long hair back in a hair net.
9. Use protective equipment
- Wear protective goggles.
- Wear a mask when carrying out dust- creating work.
10. Connect the dust extraction device
- If connections for dust extraction and a collecting de-
vice are present, make sure that they are connected
and used properly.
- Operation in enclosed areas is only permitted with a
suitable extraction system.
11. Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not in-
tended
- Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the outlet.
Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
12. Secure the workpiece
- Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the work-
piece in place. In this manner, it is held more securely
than with your hand.
- An additional support is necessary for long work-
pieces (table, trestle, etc.) in order to prevent the ma-
chine from tipping over.
- Always press the workpiece firmly against the work-
ing plate and stop in order to prevent bouncing and
twisting of the workpiece.
13. Avoid abnormal posture
- Make sure that you have secure footing and always
maintain your balance.
