4. Special Safety Instructions
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, changing tools, carrying out
maintenance or cleaning.
Secure the workpiece against slipping, e.g. with the
help of clamping devices.
Wear ear protectors when working for long
periods of time. High noise levels over a
prolonged period of time may affect your hearing.
Hold the machine from the handles provided.
Reducing dust exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool
may contain substances known to cause
cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these substances are: lead (from lead-
based paints), crystalline silica (from bricks cement,
etc.), additives for wood treatment (chromate, wood
preservative), some types of wood (like oak and
8
beech dust), metals, asbestos.
The risk from exposure to such substances will
depend on how long the user or nearby persons are
being exposed.
Do not let particles enter the body.
To reduce exposure to these substances: work in a
well ventilated area and wear protective equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use only suitable accessories. In this way, fewer
particles enter the environment in an uncontrolled
manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- Do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons
or on dust deposits.
- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers.
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and
keep it clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping
or blowing stirs up dust.
Vacuum or wash protective clothing. Do not blow,
beat or brush.
