Generally accepted accident prevention regulations and the enclosed safety information must be observed. For your own protection and for the protection of your electrical tool, pay attention to all parts of the text that are marked with this symbol! WARNING – Reading the operating instruc- tions will reduce the risk of injury. WARNING Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow all safety warn- ings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Keep all safety instructions and information for future reference. Pass on your electrical tool only together with these documents. Always wear hearing protection when using hammer drills. Exposure to noise can cause loss of hearing. Use the additional handle supplied with the tool. Loss of control can lead to injuries. 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 shock the operator. Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any adjustments or servicing are performed. Beware of gas/water pipes and electric cables! Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the switch when the plug is removed from the mains socket or in case of a power cut. Keep hands away from the rotating tool! Remove chips and similar material only with the machine at standstill. Caution must be exercised when driving screws into hard materials (driving screws with metric or imperial threads into steel)! The screw head may break or a high reverse torque may build up. The machine produces powerful forces when seizing or catching the workpiece. Always hold the machine firmly, adopt a steady stance and focus on your work. Secure small workpieces. For example, clamp in a vice. Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful. Contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the operator or bystanders. Certain kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic such as oak and beech dust especially in conjunction with additives for wood conditioning (chromate, wood preservative). Material containing asbestos must only be treated by specialists. - Where the use of a dust extraction device is possible it shall be used. - The work place must be well ventilated. - The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is recommended. Follow national requirements for the materials you want to work with.
