Always hold the machine with both hands on the
intended handles, take a secure stance and
concentrate on the work.
Keep your hands away from the milling area and
from the tool.
Do not touch the rotating tool! Remove chips and
similar material only with the machine at a standstill.
Press the spindle locking button (2) only when the
motor is off.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be
used.
Do not work overhead.
Additional Warnings:
Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
