ENGLISH (Original instructions)
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
5. Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional power tool safety warnings for routers.
uHold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a
“live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
uUse clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by your hand or against the body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
uOnly use router bits with a shank diameter equal to the
size of the collet installed in the tool.
uOnly use router bits suitable for the no-load speed of
the tool.
uNever use router bits with a diameter exceeding the
maximum diameter specied in the technical data
section.
uDo not use the tool in an inverted position.
uDo not attempt to use the tool in a stationary mode.
uMake special care when routing MDF or surfaces coated
with lead-based paint.
uWear a dust mask specically designed for protection
against lead paint dust and fumes and ensure that
persons within or entering the work area are also
protected.
uDo not let children or pregnant women enter the work
area.
uDo not eat, drink or smoke in the work area.
uDispose of dust particles and any other debris safely.
uAlways wear a dust mask.
uThis appliance is not intended for use by young or inrm
persons without supervision. children must be supervised
to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
Residual risks.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
uInjuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
uImpairment of hearing.
uRisk of injury when changing any parts, or accessories.
uHealth hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
sawing wood, especially oak, beech and MDF.
uInjuries caused by prolonged use of a tool.
When using any tool for prolonged periods ensure you
take regular breaks.
Safety of others
uThis appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
uChildren should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
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
EN 62841 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.
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.
