Residual risks
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These 
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations 
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual 
risks can not be avoided. These include:
u Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
u Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades 
or accessories.
u Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When 
using any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take 
regular breaks.
u Impairment of hearing.
u Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when 
using your tool (example:- working with wood, especially 
oak, beech and MDF.)
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 EN60745 
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.
