surfaces when performing an operation where
8
the cutting accessory may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
Always work with the additional handle correctly
installed.
Always hold the machine with both hands at the
intended handles, take a secure stance and
concentrate on the work.
Always wear protective goggles, gloves, and sturdy
shoes when working with this tool.
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
using a metal detector).
If the safety coupling responds, switch off the
machine immediately.
Do not touch the rotating tool!
Secure the workpiece to prevent slipping or rotation
(e.g. by securing with screw clamps).
Remove chips and similar material only with the
machine at a standstill.
Caution must be exercised when driving screws into
hard materials (driving screws with metric or
imperial threads into steel)! The screw head may
break or a high reverse torque may build up on the
handle.
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, changing tools, carrying out
maintenance or cleaning.
Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the
switch when the plug is removed from the mains
socket or whenever the power fails.
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
additional handle.

the strong force which can arise, always hold the
machine with both hands using the handles
provided, stand securely and concentrate.
Reducing dust exposure:
WARNING - Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead-based paints,
- crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
- arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
