WARNING
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare
one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool.
However if the tool is used for dierent applications, with dierent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may dier. This may significantly increase
the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched o or when it is running but not actually doing
the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm,
organisation of work patterns.

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, helmet and ear defenders.
The dust produced when using this tool may be harmful to health. Do not inhale
the dust. Wear a suitable dust protection mask.
Do not machine any materials that present a danger to health (e.g. asbestos).
Do not direct the light beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the light
beam yourself (not even from a distance). Staring into the light beam may result
in serious injury or vision loss.
The product is not waterproof. Do not submerge in liquid. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
Switch the device o immediately if the accessory stalls! Do not switch the device
on again while the accessory is stalled, as doing so could trigger a sudden recoil
with a high reactive force. Determine why the accessory stalled and rectify this,
paying heed to 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. The accessory may become
hot during use.
WARNING! Danger of burns
■when changing tools
■when setting the device down
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is running.
When working in walls ceiling, or floor, take care to avoid electric cables and gas
or waterpipes.
Clamp your workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped workpieces can cause
severe injury and damage.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the machine.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or by burning
them. Take them to an appropriate disposal/collection site.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short circuit risk).
Use only System GBS chargers for charging System GBS battery packs. Do not
use battery packs from other systems.
Never break open battery packs and chargers and store only in dry rooms. Keep
dry at all times.
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under extreme load or extreme
temperatures. In case of contact with battery acid wash it o immediately with
soap and water. In case of eye contact rinse thoroughly for at least 10 minutes
and immediately seek medical attention.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to completely
eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise and the
operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:
■Risk of electrocution if electric cables are drilled into. – Always grasp the
product by designated handles; do not touch the drill bits.
■Damage to the respiratory system. - Wear respiratory protection masks
containing filters appropriate to the materials being worked. Ensure
adequate workplace ventilation. Do not eat, drink or smoke in the work area.
■Damage to hearing – Always wear effective hearing protection and limit
exposure to noise.
■Damage to eyes from flying dust and debris particles – Always wear suitable
eye protection.
■Injury caused by vibration – Hold the product by designated handles; limit
exposure to vibration. See “risk reduction”.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools may contribute to a
condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may
include tingling, numbness and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon
exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet,
smoking and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development
of these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to
possibly reduce the eects of vibration:
■Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit wear gloves
to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a
major factor contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.
■After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation.
■Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately discontinue
use and see your doctor about these symptoms.
WARNING! Injuries may be caused or aggravated by prolonged use of a
tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take regular breaks.
