ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should
have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-
et elsewhere.

Additional Safety and Working
Instructions
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the
nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines

and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo-
sion. Penetrating a water line causes propertydamage.
Firmly tighten the auxiliary handle, hold the machine
firmly with both hands while working and keep proper
footing and balance at all times. The machine is securely
guided with both hands.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamp-
ing devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.

tic as well as for screwdriving, tools without SDS-plus are
used (e.g., drills with cylindrical shank). For these tools, a
keyless chuck or a key type drill chuck are required.

one’s health and cause allergic reactions, lead to res-
piratory infections and/or cancer. Materials containing
asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
–As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suita-
ble for the material.
–Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
–It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can
easily ignite.
If the application tool should become blocked, switch
the machine off. Loosen the application tool.
Before switching on the powertool, make sure that the
application tool moves freely. When switching on with a
blocked drilling tool, high torque reaction can occur.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
Always wait until the machine has come to a complete
stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and
lead to loss of control over the power tool.
