The declared vibration emission level represents
the main applications of the tool. However if the
tool is used for different applications, with differ-
ent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibra-
tion emission may differ. This may significantly
increase the exposure level over the total work-
ing period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibra-
tion should also take into account the times
when the tool is switched off or when it is run-
ning but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the total
working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the
operator from the effects of vibration such as:
maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the
hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
Dust/Chip Extraction
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and
metal can be harmful to one's health. Touch-
ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-
gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in con-
nection with wood-treatment additives (chro-
mate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be worked by
specialists.
– Use dust extraction whenever possible.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working
place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class
respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your coun-
try for the materials to be worked.
Integrated Dust Extraction with Dust Box
(see figures C1 – C4)
Attach the dust box 3 onto the extraction outlet
7 until it latches.
To empty the dust box 3, pull off the dust box
downward.
Before opening the dust box 3, it is recommend-
ed to loosen the dust from the filter element by
gently striking it against a firm support (as shown
in the figure).
Grasp the dust box 3 by the recessed grip, fold
the filter element 8 upward and empty the dust
box. Clean the thin plates of the filter element 8
with a soft brush.
External Dust Extraction (see figure D)
Insert a vacuum hose 9 onto the extraction outlet
7. Connect the vacuum hose 9 to a vacuum clean-
er. See the overview for connecting to various
vacuum cleaners at the end of these operating in-
structions.
