1.
Always wear eye and ear protection as well as protective gloves.
Other personal protective equipment, such as
respirator mask, gloves and overalls should be worn when necessary. Dust produced when working can be danger-
ous to your health, inflammable or explosive. Always wear appropriate protective equipment.
2.
Make sure the pipe has been opened and ventilated to stop any gases forming in the lateral drain where the work
takes place. Always ensure the pipe is grounded/earthed to prevent static electricity.

Always ensure that the machine is fully turned off and unplugged before inspection, maintenance, or installing
any accessories to the machine. Always follow the instructions in the manufacturer
’
s manual.

Before each use
inspect the machine carefully for any potential break or damage.
Change damaged parts
immediately.
It is especially important to check the end of the flexible power shaft for any signs of wear and tear,
and repeat the process for the outer casing. Remove damaged parts by cutting the power shaft shorter (min. 50
mm/2

Make sure that the job location is well ventilated before grinding or drilling. Always use a vacuum extraction system
in the pipe to remove dust. The operator must wear a respirator mask.
