Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the
switch when the plug is removed from the mains
socket or in case of a power cut.
Keep hands away from the rotating tool!
Remove chips and similar material only with the
machine at standstill.
Hold the power tool only at insulated housing
parts if there is any danger of making contact
with concealed electric cables or the supply
cable.
Contact with live wires energises the metal
parts of the housing and can cause electric shock
to the operator.
Caution must be exercised when driving screws
into hard materials (driving screws with metric or
imperial threads into steel)! The screw head may
break or a high reverse torque may build up.
The machine produces powerful forces when
seizing or catching the workpiece. Always hold the
machine firmly, adopt a steady stance and focus
on your work.
Secure small workpieces. For example, clamp in a
vice.
