g) If dust extraction and collection devices can be
mounted, make sure that they are connected and
used properly. Using a dust extraction unit can
reduce hazards caused by dust.
4. Using and handling the electric tool
a) Do not overload the device. Use the electric tool
intended for your work. The suitable electric tool
allows you to work better and more safely in the
indicated power range.
b) Do not use an electric tool whose switch is defec-
tive. An electric tool that cannot be switched on or
off is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket and/or remove
the battery before setting the device, changing
accessories or putting the device away. These
precautionary measures will prevent the electric
tool from starting unintentionally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the reach of chil-
dren. Do not let people use the device who are not
familiar with it or who have not read these instruc-
tions. Electric tools are dangerous if they are used
by inexperienced people.
e) Maintain the electric tool with care. Check wheth-
er moving parts function properly and do not get
stuck and whether parts are broken or are dam-
aged and thus adversely affect the electric tool
function. Have damaged parts repaired before
using the device. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained electric tools.
f) Always keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Care-
fully maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges seize up less often and are easier to guide.
g) Use electric tools, accessories, insertion tool, etc.
according to these instructions. Take the working
conditions and the activity to be carried out into
consideration. Using electric tools for applications
other than the intended uses can lead to danger-
ous situations.
5. Service
a) Only have your electric tool repaired by qualified
specialists and only with original spare parts. This
ensures that safety of the electric tool is main-
tained.
Device-specific safety instructions for hammers
• Wear hearing protection. Excessive noise can re-
sult in a loss of hearing.
• Use the additional grips if these are supplied with
the electric tool. Loss of control can lead to inju-
ries.
• When performing work during which the tool at-
tachment can meet with concealed power lines or
its own mains cable, hold the device by the insu-
lated gripping surfaces. Contact with a live power
line can also electrify metal device parts and lead
to an electric shock.

• Use the appropriate detection devices in order to
detect hidden supply lines or consult the local util-
ity company. Contact with electrical lines can re-
sult in fire and electric shock. Damage to a gas
line can lead to an explosion. Penetrating a water
pipe causes property damage or may cause an
electric shock.
• Hold the electrical tool firmly with both hands and
ensure firm footing. It is safer to guide the electri-
cal tool with two hands.
• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece held with a
clamping device or vice is held more securely than
with your hand
• Wear a dust protection mask.
Other safety and working instructions
WARNING
• Avoid abnormal posture. Make sure that you have
secure footing and always maintain your balance.
• Using protective equipment. Always wear safety
goggles when working with the machine. Protec-
tive clothing such as a dust protection mask, pro-
tective gloves, sturdy and non-slip footwear and
hearing protection are absolutely necessary.
• Dust generated when working is often harmful to
health and must not get into the body. Use dust
extraction and also wear a suitable dust protec-
tion mask. Thoroughly remove deposited dust, e.g.
vacuum up.
• Always keep the connection cable away from the
machine's operating area. Always lead the cable
backwards away from the machine.
• Materials that pose a health hazard (e.g. asbestos)
must not be processed.
• Pay attention to electrical cables, gas and water
lines when working in walls, ceilings or floors.
• Please switch off the device immediately when
the insertion tool is blocked! Do not switch the
device on again while the tool attachment is
blocked; this could result in a kick-back with
a high torque reaction. Determine and rem-
edy the cause of the insertion tool blockage,
taking the safety instructions into account.
Possible causes for this can be:
• Jamming of the workpiece to be machined
• Breaking through the material to be processed
• Overloading of the electrical tool
• Do not reach into the machine while it is running.
• Chips or fragments must not be removed while the
machine is running.
WARNING! Danger of burning
The tool attachment can become hot during use.
• During a tool change
• When putting the device down
