Levels of noise and vibration were deter-mined according to the norms and regulations in the declaration of conformity.
- The specified total vibration values and the stated noise emission values have been measured according to a standardized test method and can be used to compare one power tool with another.
- The specified total vibration values and the stated specified noise emission values can also be used for a provisional assessment of the load.
Warning :
The vibration and noise emissions may deviate from the specified values during
actual use of the power tool, depending on the type and manner in which the
power tool is used – and in particular which type of workpiece is processed.
Try to keep the exposure to vibrations as low as possible. Examples of
measures to reduce vibration exposure are the wearing of gloves when using the
tool and limiting the working hours. For this purpose all parts of the
operating cycle have to be considered (for example, times when the electric
tool is switched off and times when it is switched on but running without any
load).
Notes on safety
Caution! When using power tools, observe the following basic safety measures
for the prevention of electric shocks and the risk of injury and fire.
Please read all these instructions before using this electric tool and please
keep the safety instructions.
General Safety Directions for Power Tools
WARNING! Read all safety notices, instructions, illustrations and technical data that have been provided with this power tool. Omissions in the compliance with safety directions and instructions can cause electrical shock, fire and/or severe injuries.
Retain all safety directions and instructions for future use.
The term „power tool“ in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool).
-
WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable Liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
-
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operation of the power tool in a damp environment is unavoidable, please use a residual cur-rent circuitry. The use of a residual current circuitry reduces the risk of an electric shock.
-
PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention white operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the pow-er tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If dust extraction and collection devices can be installed, make sure that these are connected and used correctly. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not allow yourself to be lulled into a false sense of security and do not disregard the safety rules for power tools, even if you are familiar with the power tool after using it many times. Careless action can lead to serious injuries within a fraction of a second. -
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Remove the plug from the wall socket and/or remove the re-chargeable battery before you change the device’s settings, change accessory parts or put away the power tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not al-low persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Look after the power tool and application tool carefully. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less Likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be per-formed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grip surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grip surfaces do not permit safe operation and control over the power tool in un-expected situations.
-
SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Further safety directions
- Warning! Touching or inhaling harmful or toxic dusts that may arise from polishing paint containing lead or from polishing certain wood and metals represents a danger to the operator and people who are close by. Keep persons nearby away from the hazard area. Eyes should be protected from the foreign matter, which can be caused to fly during the various applications. Dust or breathing masks should filter the dust that is created during operation. Wear hearing protection in addition. If you are exposed to loud noise for a long time, you may suffer hearing loss. Wear protective gloves in addition where appropriate.
- If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared cord available through the service organization.
- This device is not intended for use by people with restricted physical, sensory or mental faculties or those who do not have sufficient experience or knowledge of it.
- Do not allow yourself to be lulled into a false feeling of security and do not disregard the safety rules for power tools, even if you are familiar with the power tool after using it many times. Acting carelessly can result in serious injuries within fractions of a second.
