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: maintaining the tool and the accessories, keeping the hands warm, and organization of work patterns.

Read and understand the operating instructions before using the appliance. Familiarise yourself with the control elements and how to use the appliance properly. Abide by all the safety measures stated in the service manual. Act responsibly toward third parties.
The operator is responsible for accidents or risks to third parties.

Safety information for impact wrenches
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners 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

Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
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. Clamp your workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped workpieces can cause severe injury and damage.
Check all screw and plug-in connections and protective equipment if firm and tightened properly and whether all moving parts are running smoothly whenever the appliance is to be put into operation.
The appliance must not be used if damaged or if safety equipment is defective. Replace any worn-out and damaged parts.
Do not use the device near flammable liquids or gases. Risk of fire and explosion in case of a short circuit.
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 a 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

Battery
