g) The power supply must match the one spe-
cified on the power tool.
An unsuitable power
supply generates malfunctions and accidents.
h) Check periodically the electrical supply
cable. Not crushed or trampled the power
supply cable.
A damaged power cord is a
source of electric shock. If damaged pull the
plug and do not use the power tool .
i) In case of doubt in the electric field, rely
on technician with proven experience.
The
use of electricity in an unsafe manner is very
dangerous for your and others’ safety.
3) Personal Safety
a) Stay alert , check what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not operate the tool when 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.
b) Use of personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection.
Protective
equipment such as dust masks, clothing
sturdy, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet,
safety gloves and hearing protection reduce
the chance of injuring yourself.
c) Prevent accidental starting. Make sure that
the switch is in the off position before con-
necting the tool to the mains and/or battery
packs, picking up or carry it.
Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch or connect
them in a network with the switch in the on
position may cause an accident .
d) Remove any adjusting key before turning
the power tool.
A key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
e) Do not overreach. Always keep proper foo-
ting and balance.
This allows better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress appropriately. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose
clothes, jewelery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for connection to
equipment for extraction and collection
of dust, ensure these are connected and
properly used.
The use of these devices can
reduce dust related hazards.
h) The user is responsible to third parties
for any accident or damage to persons or
property.
Improper use will cause accidents
and damage.
i) It is forbidden to use with bare feet or with
wet feet/hands
. The use in these conditions
may result in electric shock.
l) The processing of materials hazardous to
health must be in compliance with applicable
laws.
Some types of powders and materials
such as metals, wood , paint , etc. are very
harmful to health. Safeguard their own and
others’ health protections and adopting suitable
measures.
m) Do not touch any openings of exhaust air
cooling.
The air generated can contain residues
of processing, small parts harmful to the re-
spiratory tract and eyes.
n) Do not cover or stick things on the cooling
holes.
The lack of ventilation of the power
tool may cause fire. Access to internal parts
can cause damage to the tool and cause
electrocution.
o) Do not use the power tool if the protections
(screens, panels, doors, etc.) are opened,
damaged or missing.
The guards properly
installed safeguard your health and provide
safe operation.
4) Use and maintenance of power tools
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the right
tool for the task to be performed.
The ap-
propriate power tool allows you to perform
the work with greater efficiency and safety
without having to exceed the parameters of
use envisaged.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn on and off properly.
Any power tool
that can not be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be subjected to repairs.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power supply
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store unused power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow their use by
unskilled persons who do not know the tool or
these instructions.
Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
e) Perform the necessary maintenance on po-
wer tools. Check the possible misalignment
or blockage of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect
the operation of power tools. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused just by the poor
state of maintenance of power tools .
