Safety Notes
Safety Warnings for Nibblers
Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warn-
ings and instructions may result in elec-
tric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Additionally, the general safety warnings
either in the enclosed leaflet or in the centre
of these operating instructions must also be
followed.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
Always wait until the machine has come to a
complete stop before placing it down. The
tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control over
the power tool.
Never use the machine with a damaged
cable. Do not touch the damaged cable and
pull the mains plug when the cable is dam-
aged while working. Damaged cables increase
the risk of an electric shock.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted
with an BS 1363/A approved electric plug with
internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it
should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in
its place by an authorised customer service agent.
The replacement plug should have the same fuse
rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a
possible shock hazard and should never be
inserted into a mains socket elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a
residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual
current of 30 mA or less.
