Initial Operation - Metabo MFE 65 Notice Originale

The diamond cutting blades continue running after
the machine has been switched off.
Always wear protective goggles, dust mask, gloves,
ear protectors and sturdy shoes when working with
this tool.
Dust from material such as paint containing
lead, some wood species, minerals and
metal may be harmful. Contact with or
inhalation of the dust may cause allergic
reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the
operator or bystanders.
Use a suitable extraction unit!
Certain kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic,
especially in conjunction with additives for wood
conditioning (chromate, wood preservative).
Material containing asbestos must only be treated
by specialists.
- To achieve a high level of dust collection, use a
suitable Metabo vacuum cleaner together with this
tool.
- The work place must be well ventilated.
- The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is
recommended.
Follow national requirements for the materials you
want to work with.
Materials that generate dusts or vapours that may
be harmful to health (e.g. asbestos) must not be
processed.
When working in dusty conditions, ensure that
ventilation openings are not blocked. If it becomes
necessary to remove dust, first disconnect the
power tool from the mains supply (use non-metallic
objects) and avoid damaging internal components.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be
used.
Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electrical
cables and load-bearing walls (static).
Connect a FI circuit-breaker with max. release
current (30 mA) upstream when using the machine
outdoors!
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, converting or servicing the machine.
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
additional handle.
A damaged or cracked safety guard must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
safety guard.
Do not switch on the machine if tool parts or guard
devices are missing or defective.
An electronic error is present if the machine
