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 dierent applications, with
dierent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may
dier. This may signifi cantly 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 signifi cantly reduce
the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the
eects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories,
keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Hold the 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.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the workpiece by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
When working in walls ceiling, or floor, take care to avoid electric
cables and gas or waterpipes.
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.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the machine.
Always disconnect the plug from the socket before carrying out any
work on the machine.
Dust from certain paints, coatings, and materials may cause irritation
or allergic reactions. Dust from wood such as oak, beech, MDF, and
others are carcinogenic. Only qualified specialists should be allowed
to use the product on materials containing asbestos.
Do not use compressed air to blow dust or debris. This practice is
dangerous and can cause dirt and grit to be blasted into someone’s
eyes, causing serious injury.
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:
Injury caused by dust and derbis
●While using the product, considerable dust and fine particles will
be produced. Use the dust collection device and connect a dust
extraction vacuum during use.
●Wear eye protection at all times.
●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.
Injury caused by noise and vibration
●Wear ear protection.

●Do not operate the product for long periods of time. See “Risk
reduction”.
Injury from contact with the cutting accessories
●The accessories are sharp and will become hot during use.
●Wear gloves when changing accessories.
●Keep hands away from the cutting area at all times.
●Never hold workpiece being cut in your hands or across your leg.
Clamp the workpiece whenever possible.
Risk of electrocution if electric cables are cut
●Always hold the product by designated handles. Do not touch the
cutting blades or metal parts of the product.
Risk of musculoskeletal disorder
●Always work in correct posture, keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
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 eects of vibration:
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the product,
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.
