During Operation
In case of imminent danger or in an
emergency, switch off the power tool
immediately and remove the battery.
If a side broom or the roller brush is
jammed, switch off the power tool and
remove the battery before removing the
blockage. Wear sturdy work gloves to
reduce the risk of cut injuries from sharp
objects.
Never reach into rotating bristles – risk of
injury.
Never bump against shelving,
scaffolding, etc. while working since
there is a risk of objects toppling over or
falling from above.
Keep bystanders, especially children,
and animals away from the work area.
Never leave a running machine
unattended.
Do not leave the machine outdoors in
the rain.
Do not operate the power tool without
the hopper.
Take special care in slippery conditions,
on slopes or uneven ground.
To reduce the risk of accidents, take a
break in good time to avoid tiredness or
exhaustion.
Never work with the
power tool in the rain or in
wet or very damp
locations.
If dust levels are very high, always wear
a suitable respirator.
If there is a noticeable change in running
behavior (e.g. higher vibrations,
sluggishness), stop work and rectify the
cause of the problem.
If your power tool is subjected to
unusually high loads for which it was not
designed (e.g. heavy impact or a fall),
always check that it is in good condition
before continuing work – see also
"Before Starting Work". Make sure the
safety devices are working properly. Do
not continue operating your power tool if
it is damaged. In case of doubt, have the
unit checked by your servicing dealer.
Do not sweep up burning or glowing
objects such as cigarettes, ash or
matches – risk of fire.

unattended: Switch off the motor and
remove the battery.
