Electric tools are dangerous if they are used by
inexperienced people.

whether moving parts are in proper work­
ing order and do not jam, whether parts are
broken or damaged in such a way that they
impair the function of the power tool. Have
damaged parts repaired before using the
tool.
Many accidents are caused by poorly serviced
and maintained power tools.

times.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges jam less easily and are easier to
control.

Before chasing in load­bearing walls, con­
sult the responsible structural engineer,
architects or the site supervisors.
•
Secure the work area also behind openings
and cutouts.
Unsecured work areas can endanger you and
other people.
•
Watch out for open and concealed electricity
cables, and water and gas pipes. Use
suitable detectors to find concealed utility
pipes and cables, or contact the local utility
company for advice.
Contact with electricity cables can cause fires
and an electric shock. Damage to a gas pipe
can cause an explosion. Penetrating a water
pipe causes damage to property or could cause
an electric shock.

materials.
Sparks could ignite these materials.
•
Avoid causing situations where other people
can stumble or trip.
Tripping over cables can cause serious injuries.
•
Secure the workpiece.
A workpiece securely held in clamping devices
or a vice is more safely held than in the hand.
•
Avoid dust accumulation in the workplace.
Dusts can easily ignite.
•
Dust from materials such as coatings con­
taining lead, several types of wood, minerals
and metals can be harmful to health and
cause allergic reactions, respiratory diseas­
es and/or cancer.
Asbestos-containing material may only be ma-
chined by specialists.
f Wherever possible, use a dust extractor suit-
able for the material you are working on (e.g.
a special BAIER dust extractor).
f Ensure the workplace is properly ventilated.
f We recommend wearing a face mask
respirator with filter class P2 or P3 (to
EN 149:2001).
Observe the relevant regulations in your country
