VIBRATION
Note: The vibration measurement was made
under standard conditions in accordance with:
EN 62841-1 & EN 62841-2-1
Warning: Wear hearing protection!
The declared vibration total value has been
measured in accordance with a standard test
method and may be used for comparing one tool
with another.
The declared vibration total value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
(1.6) WARNING: When using this machine
the operator can be exposed to high levels of
vibration transmitted to the hand and arm.
It is possible that the operator could develop
“Vibration white finger disease”(Raynaud
syndrome). This condition can reduce the
sensitivity of the hand to temperature as
well as producing general numbness.
Prolonged or regular users of this machine should
monitor the condition of their hands and fingers
closely. If any of the symptoms become evident,
seek immediate
medical advice.
• The measurement and assessment of human
exposure to hand-transmitted vibration in the
workplace is given in:
EN 62841-1 & EN 62841-2-1
• Many factors can influence the actual vibration
level during operation e.g. the work surfaces
condition and orientation and the type and
condition of the machine being used. Before
each use, such factors should be assessed, and
where possible appropriate working practices
adopted. Managing these factors can help
reduce the effects of vibration:
Handling
• Handle the machine with care,
allowing the machine to do the work.
• Avoid using excessive physical effort on any of
the machines controls.
• Consider your security and stability,
and the orientation of the machine
during use.
Work Surface
• Consider the work surface material;
its condition, density, strength,
rigidity and orientation.
WARNING: The vibration emission during actual
use of the power tool can differ from the declared
total value depending on the ways in which the
tool is used.
The need to identify safety measures and to
protect the operator are based on an estimation
of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking
account of all parts
of the operating cycle, such as the times the tool is
switched off, when it is running idle,
in addition to trigger time).

specified in EN 62841-1 & EN 62841-2-1;
UL 62841-1 & UL 62841-2-1; CSA-C22.2 No. 62841-1
& CSA-C22.2 No. 62841-2-1).
WARNING: Read all safety warnings and
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/ or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference. The term “power tool”in the
warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power
tool.
(2.2) 1) General Power Tool
Safety Warnings [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, gasses or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the

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 operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk
of electric shock.
(2.4) 3) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[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

parts and any other condition that may affect
the power tools 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 performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow
for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
(2.6) 5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects, like paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects, that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or
a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
