Use and Care Manual

Service
▶ Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
2.2 Additional safety precautions for screwdrivers
Personal safety
▶ Only use the product if it is in perfect working order.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the tool in any way.
▶ Use the auxiliary grip supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
▶ Always hold the power tool with both hands on the grips provided. Keep
the grips clean and dry.
▶ Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the accessory tool may come into contact with concealed
wiring. If the accessory tool comes into contact with a live wire, metal
parts of the power tool may also become live, causing the operator to
receive an electric shock.
▶ Avoid touching rotating parts – risk of injury!
▶ Wear suitable protective glasses, a hard hat, ear protection, protective
gloves and light respiratory protection while using the tool.
▶ Wear protective gloves also when changing the accessory tool. Touching
the accessory tool presents a risk of injury (cuts or burns).
▶ Wear eye protection. Flying fragments present a risk of injury to the body
and eyes.
▶ Before starting work, check the hazard class of the dust that will be pro-
duced when working. Use an industrial vacuum cleaner with an officially
approved protection class in compliance with the locally applicable dust
protection regulations. Dust from materials such as lead-based paint,
certain types of wood and concrete/masonry/stone containing quartz,
minerals or metal may be harmful to health.
▶ Make sure that the working area is well ventilated and, where necessary,
wear a respirator appropriate for the type of dust generated. Contact with
or inhalation of dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory
or other diseases to the operator or bystanders. Certain kinds of
dust, such as oak and beech dust, are classified as carcinogenic,
especially in conjunction with additives for treating wood (chromate,
wood preservative). Materials containing asbestos may only be handled
by specialists.
▶ Take breaks between working and do physical exercises to improve the
blood circulation in your fingers. Exposure to vibration during long periods
of work can lead to disorders of the blood vessels and nervous system in
the fingers, hands and wrists.
