Bosch Power Tools

tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while op-

erating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye pro-

tection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid

safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appro-

priate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the

off-position before connecting to power source and/or

battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying pow-

er tools with your finger on the switch or energising power

tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning

the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a ro-

tating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at

all times. This enables better control of the power tool in

unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewel-

lery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from

moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-

traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-

nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can re-

duce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool

for your application. The correct power tool will do the

job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it

on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with

the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the

battery pack from the power tool before making any

adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power

tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

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 usersf.

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding

of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condi-

tion that may affect the power tool’s operation. If dam-

aged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many acci-

dents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind

and are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-

cordance 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.

sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
