Vibration details
Vibration total values (triaxial vector sum) determined according to EN 60745:, Uncertainty K = 1,5 m/s2
Hammer-drilling into concrete : Vibration emission value ah, HD 8,64 m/s2

WARNING: The vibration emission level will vary
because of the ways in which a power tool can be
used and may increase above the level given in this
information sheet.
The vibration emission level may be used to compare
one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure.
An accurate estimate of the vibratory load
should also take into account the times when the
tool is shut down or when it is running but not
actually in use. This may significantly reduce the
vibratory load over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect
the operator from the effects of vibration such
as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep
the hands warm, organization of work patterns.

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.

Hammer safety warnings
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutting accessory contacting a „live“ wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool „live“ and
could give the operator an electric shock.

Additional Safety and Working

Instructions

Use protective equipment. Always wear safety
glasses when working with the machine. The use of
protective clothing is recommended, such as dust
mask, protective gloves, sturdy non-slip footwear
and ear defenders.
The dust produced when using this tool may be
harmful to health. Do not inhale the dust. Use a dust
absorption system and wear a suitable dust protection
mask. Remove deposited dust thoroughly, e.g.
with a vacuum cleaner.
Always keep the connection cable from the working
area of the device. Always guide the cable backwards,
away from the device!
Do not machine any materials that present a danger
to health (e.g. asbestos).
When working in walls ceiling, or floor, take care to
avoid electric cables and gas or waterpipes.
Please turn the device immediately off when the
tool used gets blocked! Do not turn the device on
again when the tool is still blocked. This could cause
bounce back with a high reaction moment. Determine
and remove the cause of the blocking of the tool
used while respecting the safety instructions.
The possible causes may be:
• it is tilted in the workpiece to be machined
• it has pierced through the material to be machined
• the power tool is overloaded
Do not reach into the machine while it is running.
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the
machine is running.
WARNING! Danger of burns
The insertion tool may become hot during use.
• when changing tools
• when setting the device down

Battery

Risk of fire! Risk of explosion!
Never use damaged, defective or deformed accumulators.
Never open or damage the accumulator
or let it fall on the ground.
Umgebungstemperatur
Protect the battery against heat and fire.
Battery to be used at the ambient temperatures
between 10°C and +40°C only.
Never put the battery on heaters and do not
expose it to strong sunlight for a long time.
After being subject to heavy load, let the battery
cool down first.
Short circuit – do not bridge the accumulator
contacts with metal parts.
The accumulator must be packaged (plastic bag,
box) or accumulator contacts must be sealed up
for accumulator disposal, transport or storage.

Vapours may irritate the respiratory system.
Work instructions
Accumulators are supplied partially charged and
must therefore be fully charged before being used for
the first time.
• Charge the accumulator when the appliance is
running slowly or stops.
• A li-ion battery may be charged at any time without
any shortening of its life. Charging process interruption
will not damage the accumulator.
• A li-ion battery is protected by the Electronic Cell
Protection against deep discharge.
• A significantly shorter operating time of a charged
battery means the battery life is over and the battery
must be replaced.

Dispose of the batteries in an environmentally
friendly manner.
Li-ion batteries are subject to the special disposal
obligation. Have any defective batteries disposed of
by a specialized shop. The battery must be taken out
before the appliance is scrapped. Damaged batteries
may harm the environment and your health if toxic
vapours or liquids leak out of such batteries.
Therefore, never send a defective battery by post, etc.
Please contact your local recycling centre.
Dispose of the batteries when discharged. We
recommend applying an adhesive tape on the poles
to protect them against short circuit. Never open the
battery.
