The vibration level specified in
these instructions was measured in accordance with
an EN 60745 standardised measurement process
and can be used to compare equipment. The vibra-
tion emission value specified can also serve as a
preliminary assessment of the exposure.
The vibration level will change according to the ap-
plication of the electrical tool an in some cases may
exceed the value specified in these instructions. Re-
gularly using the electric tool in such a way may make
it easy to underestimate the vibration.
Note: If you wish to make an accurate assessment
of the vibration loads experienced during a particular
period of working, you should also take into account
the intervening periods of time when the device is
switched off or is running but is not actually in use.
This can result in a much lower vibration load over
the whole of the period of working.

warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions 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-op-
erated (cordless) power tool.
1. 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, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
