# Additional safety information

- Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.

- Always wait until the power tool has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The application tool can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.

- Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.

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.

- Do not touch any application tools or adjacent housing components shortly after operation. These can become very hot during operation and cause burns.

- The application tool may jam during drilling. Make sure you have a stable footing and hold the power tool firmly with both hands. Otherwise you could lose control of the power tool.

- Take care when carrying out demolition work using the chisel. Falling fragments of the demolition material could injure you or any bystanders.

- Hold the power tool firmly with both hands and make sure you have a stable footing. The power tool can be more securely guided with both hands.
