Take protective measures when dust can de-
velop during working that is harmful to one's
health, combustible or explosive. Example:
Some dusts are regarded as carcinogenic.
Wear a dust mask and work with dust/chip ex-
traction when connectable.
Keep your workplace clean. Blends of mate-
rials are particularly dangerous. Dust from
light alloys can burn or explode.
Always wait until the machine has come to a
complete stop before placing it down. The
tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control
over the power tool.
Never use the machine with a damaged ca-
ble. Do not touch the damaged cable and pull
the mains plug when the cable is damaged
while working. Damaged cables increase the
risk of an electric shock.

The values given are valid for nominal voltages [U] of
230/240 V. For lower voltage and models for specific coun-
tries, these values can vary.
Please observe the article number on the type plate of your
machine. The trade names of the individual machines may
vary.
Starting cycles generate brief voltage drops. Interference
with other equipment/machines may occur in case of unfa-
vourable mains system conditions. Malfunctions are not to
be expected for system impedances below 0.36 ohm.
