1 SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

FOR DRILL HAMMERS

Working safely with this machine is possible only when the operating and safety information are read completely and the instructions contained therein are strictly fol- lowed.

In addition, the general safety notes in the enclosed booklet must be observed.

Before using for the first time, ask for a practical demonstration.

To prevent damage to hearing, wear hearing protection.

Wear safety glasses.

For long hair, wear hair protection.

Work only with close-fitting clothes.

Dust produced while working can be detrimental to health, inflammable or explosive. Suitable protection measures are required.

Examples: Some dusts are considered to be carcino- genic. Use suitable dust/chip extraction and wear a dust protection mask.

Light metal dust can burn or explode. Always keep the work place clean since material mixtures are especially dangerous.

If the cable is damaged or cut through while working, do not touch the cable but immediately pull the power plug. Never use the machine with a damaged cable.

Connect machines that are used in the open via a re- sidual current device (RCD) with an actuating current of 30 mA maximum. Do not operate the machine in rain or moisture.

Always direct the cable to the rear away from the ma- chine.

Use suitable detectors to find hidden utility lines or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire or electrical shock. Damaging a gas line can result in an explosion. Penetrating a water pipe will cause property damage or an electrical shock.

Operate the machine only with the auxiliary handle 11.

Secure the work piece. A work piece held with clamping devices or in a vise is more secure than when held by hand.

Place the machine on the nut/screw only when switched off.

Be careful when screwing in long screws; danger of sliding off.

When working, always hold the machine firmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance.

Always switch the machine off and wait until it has come to a standstill before placing it down.

Never allow children to use the machine.

Bosch is able to ensure perfect functioning of the ma- chine only if the original accessories intended for it are used.

Overload Clutch

If the drill bit becomes jammed or caught, the drive to the drill spindle is interrupted. Because of the forces that occur as a result, always hold the machine se- curely with both hands and take a firm stance.
