General safety instructions

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or bat-
tery-operated (cordless) power tool.
5.2 Machine-related safety instructions
– Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Expo-
sure to noise can cause hearing loss.
– Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the
tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
– Hold power tool by insulated gripping surface,
when performing an operation where the cut-
ting accessory or fastener may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory or fas-
teners contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
– The machine must never be operated when wet
or located in a damp environment. Connect de-
vices that you intend to use outdoors via an earth
leakage circuit breaker (FI) with a maximum re-
lease current of 30mA. Always use a cable ap-
proved for outdoor use.
– Wear suitable protection: such as ear protec-
tion, safety goggles, a dust mask for work which
generates dust, and protective gloves when
working with raw materials and when changing
tools.
CAUTION! Rebound!
Rotation: Switch off device immediately!
– Do not lock the on/off switch permanently!
