During use, the user and other persons standing nearby have to wear
suitable goggles, helmets, ear protectors, dust mask, protective cloves
and boots.
The tool may be used only in two-hand operation or with the drill
rig. During manual operation, always hold the tool with both hands
and be fall-safe. Consider the tool's reaction torque in case of
blocking.
Always work in a carefully considered way and do not use the tool
if you are lacking consideration.
Hold 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 could give the
operator an electric shock.
During manual operation, work with a special circumspection
when dry drilling with dimensions between 102 and 132mm!
For further safety instructions, see the enclosure.
