section of 1.5 mm 2 . The plug connections must
be splash-proof.

being transported or when you leave it un-
supervised.
- when you are checking the tool, cleaning
it or removing blockages.

maintenance work on the tool or replace
accessories.
- after the tool impacts with foreign bodies or

that the air current can work near to the ground.
