4. Special Safety Information
For your own protection and the
protection of your power tool, observe the
passages marked by this symbol!
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.
Take care to avoid gas, electricity, and water
supplies!
Metabo S-automatic safety clutch.
When the safety clutch responds, switch off the
machine immediately!
Avoid unintentional starting: always unlock the
trigger switch if the machine is unplugged or in the
event of a power failure.
Do not grasp the rotating tool!
Remove chips and similar matter only with the
machine at standstill.
Wear ear muffs when working for long periods of
time. High noise levels over a prolonged period of
time may affect your hearing.
Reducing dust exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool
may contain substances known to cause
cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these substances are: lead (from lead-
based paints), crystalline silica (from bricks cement,
etc.), additives for wood treatment (chromate, wood
preservative), some types of wood (like oak and
beech dust), metals, asbestos.
The risk from exposure to such substances will
depend on how long the user or nearby persons are
being exposed.
Do not let particles enter the body.
To reduce exposure to these substances: work in a
well ventilated area and wear protective equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this
way, fewer particles enter the environment in an
uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- Do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons
or on dust deposits.
- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers.
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and
keep it clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping
or blowing stirs up dust.
Vacuum or wash protective clothing. Do not blow,
beat or brush.
