breakage of parts and any other condi- tion that may affect the power tool‘s 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 oper- ations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

h)Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles do not al- low for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5 BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

a)Recharge only with the charger speci- fied 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 in- jury and fire.

c)When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like pa- per clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals to- gether may cause burns or a fire.

d)Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid con- tact. 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.

6 SERVICE

a)Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only iden- tical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is main- tained.

Machine-related safety instructions

Harmful/toxic dusts can be produced during your work (e.g. lead-containing paint, some types of wood and metal). Contact with these dusts, especially inhaling them, can represent a hazard for operating personnel or persons in the vicinity. Comply with the safety regulations that apply in your country. Connect the electric power tool to a suitable extraction system.

To protect your health, wear a P2 pro- tective mask.

Always wear protective goggles to pro- tect against sanding hazards.

Prevent liquid polish from entering the machine. The penetration of liquid polish into the electric power tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

Metal processing

When processing metal, the following measures must be taken for safety reasons:

Install an upstream residual-current cir- cuit-breaker (FIG, PRCD).

Connect the machine to a suitable dust ex- tractor.

Regularly remove dust deposits in the mo- tor housing.

Wear protective goggles.

Health hazard by dust

WARNING! Various dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drill- ing and other construction activities

contains chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

lead from lead-based paints,

crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

arsenic and chromium from chemical- lytreated lumber.

The risk from these expo- sures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your ex- posure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
