SAFETY WARNINGS

The term ‘Power tool’ in the

safety warnings refers to any

electric / battery or pneumatic

drill, required to use this nibbler.

WORK AREA SAFETY

1. Keep work area clean and

well lit. Cluttered and dark

areas invite accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in

explosive atmospheres, such

as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases or

dust. Power tools create

sparks which may ignite the

dust or fumes.

3. Keep children and bystanders

away while operating a power

tool. Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

1. Avoid body contact with

earthed or grounded surfaces

such as pipes, radiators,

ranges and refrigerators. There

is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed

or grounded.

2. Do not expose power tools to

rain or wet conditions. Water

entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric

shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

1. Stay alert, watch what you are

doing and use common sense

when operating a power tool.

Do not use a power tool while

you are tired or under the

influence of drugs, alcohol or

medication. A moment of

inattention while operating

power tools may result in

serious personal injury.

2. Use safety equipment. Always

wear eye protection. Safety

equipment such as dust mask,

non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,

or hearing protection used for

appropriate conditions will

reduce personal injuries.

3. Remove any adjusting key or

wrench before turning the

power tool on. A wrench or a

key left attached to a rotating

part of the power tool may

result in personal injury.

4. Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all

times. This enables better

control of the power tool in

unexpected situations.

5. Dress properly. Do not wear

loose clothing or jewellery.

Keep your hair, clothing and

gloves away from moving

parts. Loose clothes, jewellery

or long hair can be caught in

moving parts.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. Store idle power tools out of the

reach of children. Power tools

are dangerous in the hands of

untrained users.

OPERATION

• Apply the metal nibbler to the workpiece only when

running at full speed.

• Always hold the

metal nibbler

vertical to the

surface of the steel

sheet and without

tilting. The cut takes

place during the

upward motion of

the metal nibbler.

• Guide the metal nibbler evenly and with moderate

feed pressure in the cutting direction.

• Do not exert force, otherwise the metal nibbler and

cutter guide will become damaged.

USING THE METAL NIBBLER

• Straight cuts are carried out best when the metal

nibbler is guided alongside a ruler/straight edge.

• Contours can be cut by guiding the metal nibbler along

a curved template.

• For inside cuts, you will need to pre-drill a 10 mm hole.
