Residual Risks
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool
which may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings.
These risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
•
Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
•
Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or
accessories.
•
Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using any
tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular breaks.
•
Impairment of hearing.
•
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed
when using your tool (example:- working with wood,
especially oak, beech and MDF).
Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the
technical data and the declaration of conformity have
been measured in accordance with a standard test method
provided by EN50636 and may be used for comparing one
tool with another. The declared vibration emission value
may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
32
WARNING: The vibration emission value during
actual use of the power tool can differ from the
declared value depending on the ways in which the
tool is used. The vibration level may increase above
the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons
regularly using power tools in employment, an estimation
of vibration exposure should consider, the actual conditions
of use and the way the tool is used, including taking
account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times
when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in
addition to the trigger time.
After Use

Extension Cords
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough
to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to
use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage
number, the heavier the cord.
