Noise and vibration data:
Measured values for noise are determined in accord-
ance with EN 60745. The A-weighted noise level
of the electrical power tool are typically:
Sound pressure level:
Sound power level:
Uncertainty K:
Wear ear protection!
Evaluated acceleration, typical:
Hand / arm vibration a
h
Uncertainty K = 1,5 m / s
The vibration level given in these
WARNING!
instructions has been measured in accordance with
a standardised measurement procedure specified
in EN 60745 and can be used to compare devices.
Different uses of the device give rise to different
vibration levels and in many cases they may
exceed the values given in these instructions. It is
easy to underestimate the vibration load if the elec-
trical power tool is used regularly in particular
circumstances.
Note: If you wish to make an accurate assessment
of the vibration loads experienced during a particular
period of working, you should also take into account
the intervening periods of time when the device is
switched off or is running but is not actually in use.
This can result in a much lower vibration load over
the whole of the period of working.

MEANS OF A MAINS LEAD) AND ELECTRICAL
TOOLS POWERED BY RECHARGEABLE BATTER-
IES (WITHOUT A MAINS LEAD).

1. Workplace safety

a) Keep your working area clean and
well lit. Untidy or poorly lit working areas
can lead to accidents.
b)
Do not work with the device
in potentially explosive envi-
ronments in which there
are inflammable liquids, gases or
dusts. Electrical power tools create sparks,
which can ignite dusts or fumes.
c)
Keep children and other peo-
ple away while you are op-
erating the electrical tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control of
the device.

2. Electrical safety

To avoid danger to
life from electric shock:
a) The mains plug on the device must match
the mains socket. The plug must not
be modified in any way. Do not use
an adapter plug with devices fitted
with a protective earth. Unmodified
plugs and matching sockets reduce the risk of
electric shock.
b) Avoid touching earthed surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ovens and refrig-
erators with any part of your body.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed.
c) Keep the device away from rain or
moisture. Water entering an electrical device
increases the risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not use the mains lead for
any purpose for which it was
not intended, e.g. to carry the
device, to hang up the device or to pull
