The vibration level given in these

instructions has been measured in accordance with

a standardised measurement procedure speciﬁed

in EN 60745 and can be used to compare devices.

Diﬀerent uses of the device give rise to diﬀerent

vibration levels and in many cases they may

exceed the values given in these instructions. It is

easy to underestimate the vibration load if the elec-

trical power tool is used regularly in particular

circumstances.

Note: If you wish to make an accurate assessment

of the vibration loads experienced during a particular

period of working, you should also take into account

the intervening periods of time when the device is

switched oﬀ or is running but is not actually in use.

This can result in a much lower vibration load over

the whole of the period of working.

General safety advice for

electrical power tools

WARNING!

Read all the safety advice

and instructions! Failure to observe the safety

advice and instructions may result in electric shock,

ﬁre and / or serious injury.

Keep all the safety advice and instructions

in a safe place for future reference!

The term “electrical tool” used in the safety advice

refers to electrical tools powered by mains electrici-

ty (by means of a mains lead) and electrical tools

mains lead).

Workplace safety

a) Keep your working area clean and

well lit. Untidy or poorly lit working areas

can lead to accidents.

Do not work with the device

in potentially explosive envi-

ronments in which there are

inflammable liquids, gases or dusts.

Electrical power tools create sparks, which can

ignite dusts or fumes.

Keep children and other

people away while you are

operating the electrical tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control of

the device.

Introduction / General safety advice for electrical power tools

8 GB/IE

Electrical safety

The mains plug on the device must match

the mains socket. The plug must not

be modified in any way. Do not use

an adapter plug with devices fitted

with a protective earth. Unmodiﬁed

plugs and matching sockets reduce the risk of

electric shock.

b) Avoid touching earthed surfaces such

as pipes, radiators, ovens and refrig-

erators with any part of your body.

There is an increased risk of electric shock if

your body is earthed

c) Keep the device away from rain or

moisture. Water entering an electrical device

increases the risk of electric shock.

Do not use the mains lead for

any purpose for which it was

not intended, e.g. to carry the

device, to hang up the device or to pull

the mains plug out of the mains socket.

Keep the mains lead away from heat,

oil, sharp edges or moving parts of the

device. Damaged or tangled mains leads

increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When working outdoors with an

electrical power tool always use ex-

tension cables that are also approved

for use outdoors. The use of an extension

cable suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk

of electric shock.

f) Use a residual current device (RCD)

for protection if operating the electri-

cal power tool in a moist environment

is unavoidable. The use of an RCD reduces

the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a) Remain alert at all times, watch what

you are doing and always proceed

with caution. Do not use the device if

you are tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol or medication. One mo

ment

of carelessness when using the device can lead

to serious injury.

Wear personal protective

equipment and always wear

safety glasses. The wearing of

personal protective equipment such as dust

masks, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmets or

ear protectors, appropriate to the type of elec-

trical power tool used and work undertaken,

reduces the risk of injury.

c) Avoid unintentional operation of the

device. Check that the electrical power

tool is switched off before you connect

it to the mains, pick it up or carry it.

Accidents can happen if you carry the device

with your ﬁnger on the ON / OFF switch or with

the device switched on.

d) Remove any setting tools or spanners

before you switch the device on. A tool

or spanner left attached to a rotating part of a

device can lead to injury.

e) Avoid placing your body in an unnat-

ural position. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times. By doing this

you will be in a better position to control the

device in unforeseen circumstances.

f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear

loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your

hair, clothing and gloves clear of mov-

ing parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long

hair can become trapped in moving parts.

g) If vacuum dust extraction and collection

devices are fitted do not forget to

check

that they are properly connected and

correctly used. The use of these devices

reduces the hazard presented by dust.

Careful handling and use

of electrical power tools

a) Do not overload the device. Always

use an electrical power tool that is

intended for the task you are under-

taking. By using the right electrical power

tool for the job you will work more safely and

achieve a better result.

Do not use an electrical power tool if

its switch is defective. An electrical power

General safety advice for electrical power tools

9 GB/IE

tool that can no longer be switched on and oﬀ

is dangerous and must be repaired.

Pull the mains plug from the socket

before you make any adjustments to

the device, change accessories or when

the device is put away. This precaution is

intended to prevent you from unintentionally

starting the device.

d) When not in use always ensure that

electrical power tools are kept out of

reach of children. Do not let anyone use

the device if he or she is not familiar

with it or has not read the instructions

and advice. Electrical power tools are danger-

ous when they are used by inexperienced people.

e) Look after the device carefully. Check

that moving parts are working prop-

erly and move freely. Check for any

parts that are broken or damaged

enough to detrimentally affect the

functioning of the device. Have dam-

aged parts repaired before you use

the device. Many accidents have their origins

in poorly maintained electrical power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools clean and sharp.

Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp

cutting edges are less likely to jam and are

easier to control.

g) Use the electrical power tool, accesso-

ries, inserted tools etc. in accordance

with these instructions and advice, and

the stipulations drawn up for this par-

ticular type of device. In doing this, take

into account the working conditions

and the task in hand. The use of electrical

power tools for purposes other than those in-

tended can lead to dangerous situations.

Safety advice relating

speciﬁcally to this multi-

function tool

 When working, hold the electrical

power tool firmly with both hands and

keep a proper footing and balance. It

is safer to guide the electrical power tool using

both hands.

 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece held

in a clamp or vice is kept more securely in

place than one held by your hand.

 Keep your working area clean. Mixtures

of materials can be particularly dangerous.

Light metal alloy dust may burn or explode.

 Do not operate the device if the mains

lead or mains plug is damaged.

 Do not touch the mains lead if it be-

comes damaged or cut through while

you are using the device. Pull the plug

out of the mains socket immediately and have

the device repaired by a suitably qualiﬁed per-

son or at your service centre. Damaged mains

leads increase the risk of electric shock.



Wear protective gloves when

replacing a tool in the device.

Tools heat up with prolonged use.

 Use the electrical power tool only for

dry abrading / sawing / cutting.

 Do not operate the device if it is damp

and do not use it in a damp environ-

ment. Water entering an electrical device in-

creases the risk of electric shock.

 Keep your hands away from the area

of the saw blade. Do not grip the underside

of the workpiece. Contact with the saw blade

may result in injury.

 Use a suitable detector to locate con-

cealed services supply cables / pipes

or approach your local public utilities

services providers. Contact with electricity

cables can lead to ﬁre or electric shock.

Damaging a gas pipe can lead to an explo-

sion. Penetration of a water pipe can lead to

property damage or to electric shock.

 If you use the device outdoors, always

connect it through a residual current

device (RCD) with a maximum trip cur-

rent of 30 mA. If using an extension lead, al-

ways use one that is approved for outdoor use.

WARNING!

Any harmful / noxious dusts

generated from sanding represent a risk to the

health of the person operating the device and

to anyone near the work area.

Wear safety glasses and a

dust protection mask!

General safety advice for electrical power tools

10 GB/IE

 Ensure that there is adequate ventila-

tion when working on plastic, paint,

varnish etc.

 Do not soak the materials or the sur-

face you are about to work on with

liquids containing solvents.



Advice on use

Principle of operation:

The oscillating drive causes the attached tool to vi-

brate backwards and forwards up to 21000 times

per minute. This means the tool can produce precise

work in the tightest of spaces.

Sawing / cutting:

 Use only undamaged, defect-free saw blades.

Distorted, blunt or otherwise damaged saw

blades could break.

 When sawing lightweight building materials,

observe the statutory requirements and the

manufacturer’s recommendations.

 Use the device in plunge sawing mode on soft

materials such as wood, gypsum plaster board

etc. only!

Sanding:

 Ensure that you use even contact pressure. This

will increase sanding sheet life.

uum‘s dust bag) may ignite, e.g. as a result of ﬂying

sparks generated when abrading metals or metal

objects left in wood. This can happen particularly if

the wood dust is mixed with paint residue or other

chemicals and the abraded particles are hot from

prolonged abrasion. Therefore you must empty the

device’s dust collection box and the vacuum clean-

er’s dust bag before taking a break or stopping

work and always avoid overheating of the abrad-

ed particles and the device.
