Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques
Special safety precau-
tions must be observed
when working with this
machine because of the
very high speed of its cut-
ting attachment and the
fact that it is powered by
electricity.
Before commissioning, it
is important to read and
understand the User
Manual and to keep it in a
safe place for future ref-
erence. Failure to
observe the User Manual
may lead to serious or
even fatal injury.
Observe the national safety regulations
issued, e.g. by the employers' liability
insurance association, social security
institutions, occupational safety and
health authorities and other
organizations.
If you have not used this machine
before: Have your dealer or other
experienced user show you how to
handle your machine safely or attend a
specialist course.
Minors should never be allowed to use
the machine – except for young trainees
over the age of 16 when working under
supervision.
Children, animals and onlookers must
not be allowed near the machine.
When the machine is not in use, shut it
off so that it does not endanger others.
Secure it against unauthorized use and
disconnect the mains plug.
The user is responsible for accidents or
risks involving third parties or their
property.
Do not pass on or lend the machine to
persons who are not familiar with this
model and its handling – always include
the User Manual.
Persons who are not able to operate the
power tool safely due to limited physical,
sensory or mental ability may work with
it only under supervision or after being
instructed appropriately by a
responsible person.
The use of noise-emitting power tools
may be restricted to certain times by
national or local regulations.
Before each use, check that the unit is in
proper condition. Pay special attention
to the connecting cable, mains plug and
safety devices.
Do not use the connecting cable to pull
or transport the unit.
Disconnect plug from wall outlet before
performing any work on the machine,
e.g. cleaning, maintenance, replacing
parts.
The deflector on this power tool cannot
protect the operator from all objects
ejected by the cutting attachment
(stones, glass, wire, etc.). Ejected
objects may also ricochet and strike the
operator.
Do not use a high-pressure washer to
clean the power tool. The solid jet of
water may damage parts of the unit.
Do not spray the power tool with water.
