gional safety regulations for hazardous
dusts and vapours.
Operate and service the air tool as described
in the recommendations included in these in-
structions and use accessories and attach-
ments from Festool to minimise the release of
dust and vapours into the atmosphere. In
dusty environments, make sure that the dis-
sipation of exhaust air does not disturb the
dust.
i) Do not use the compressed-air hose for
purposes for which it was not intended.
Never carry the pneumatic tool by the com-
pressed-air hose.
Protect the compressed-air hose from heat,
oil and sharp edges.
Never direct the air flow towards yourself or
other persons.
j) Secure the workpiece. Use clamping devic-
es or a vice to hold the workpiece firmly.
These clamp the workpiece more securely
than with hands and also allow both hands to
be free to operate the pneumatic tool.
k)Avoid abnormal body postures. Ensure
that you are standing securely and keep your
balance at all times.
l) Carefully maintain your tools. Keep cut-
ting tools sharp and clean in order to be able
to work better and more safely.
Comply with the instructions for lubrication
and tool changes. Check the compressed-
air hose regularly and if it becomes dam-
aged, have it replaced by an approved spe-
cialist. Keep the hand grips dry, clean and
free of oil and grease.
m)Disconnect the compressed-air hose
from the compressed-air supply. If the
pneumatic tool is idle, prior to maintenance
and when changing tools such as saw blades,
drill bits, cutting tools.
n)Do not leave tool keys in the tool. Before
switching on, check that the key and adjust-
ing tools have been removed.
o)Avoid inadvertent start-ups. Do not carry
a pneumatic tool that is connected to a com-
pressed-air supply with your finger on the
trigger.
When connecting the compressed-air hose to
a compressed-air supply, make sure that the
switch is not activated.
p)Pay attention! Take care of what you do.
Work sensibly.
Do not use electric power tools when you lack
concentration.
Operating and maintenance personnel must
be physically strong enough to handle the
size, weight and power of the machine.
q)Check the pneumatic tool for possible
damage. Before continuing to use the pneu-
matic tool, carefully examine safety devices
and slightly damaged components and make
sure that they function correctly and as spec-
ified. Check whether moving components
function correctly and do not seize, and
whether any components are damaged.
All components must be fitted correctly and
meet all requirements to ensure that the
pneumatic tool operates correctly.
Damaged safety devices and parts should be
repaired or replaced by an authorised service
centre unless otherwise specified in the oper-
ating instructions.
Damaged switches must be replaced by an
authorised service centre. Do not use pneu-
matic tools with faulty switches (machine
cannot be switched on or off).
r) IMPORTANT! Only use accessories and aux-
iliary devices that are listed in the operating
manual or that are recommended by the
manufacturer (catalogue). The use of other
tools and accessories can represent a risk of
injury.
s)Have your pneumatic tool repaired by a
qualified specialist. This pneumatic tool
corresponds to the relevant safety regula-
tions. Repairs should only be carried out by a
qualified specialist. The operator is otherwise
at risk of an accident.
t) Only trained and qualified persons are
permitted to set up, adjust and operate
this air tool. Persons without the relevant
qualifications and training are more likely to
cause accidents.
u)This air tool may not be modified. Modifi-
cations may reduce the effectiveness of safe-
