General
Do not use the machine unless you are able to call
for help in the event of an accident. Always have a
first aid kit nearby.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
You must use approved personal protective equipment
whenever you use the machine. Personal protective
equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will
reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen.
Ask your dealer for help in choosing the right equipment.
Listen out for warning signals or shouts when you are
wearing hearing protection. Always remove your hearing
protection as soon as the motor stops.
Always wear:
• Hearing protection
• Approved eye protection
If you use a face shield then you must
also wear approved protective goggles.
Approved protective goggles must comply
with standard ANSI Z87.1 in the USA or EN
166 in EU countries. Visors must comply
with standard EN 1731.
• Breathing mask
• Protective gloves.
• Hair covering or devices to contain long hair,
i.e.: Hair Ties For Guys
Generally clothes should be close-fitting without
restricting your freedom of movement. Be careful
as clothing, long hair, and jewellery can get caught
in moving parts.
