WARNING! RISK OF FIRE!
►
There is a risk of fire when working with
power tools that are fitted with a dust collec-
tion box or can be connected to a vacuum
cleaner via the vacuum cleaner adapter! In
unfavourable conditions, e.g. when sparks
are flying while sanding metal or metal resi-
dues in wood, wood dust in the dust sack (or
in the vacuum cleaner dust bag) can sponta-
neously ignite. This is a particular risk if the
wood dust is mixed with paint residues or
other chemicals and the workpiece has
become hot after being worked for a long
time. Therefore, do not allow the workpiece
and appliance to overheat and always empty
the dust box or the dust bag in the vacuum
cleaner before taking a break from work.
Wear a dust mask!
WARNING!
Always disconnect the battery pack 2
