Festool CARVEX PS 420 EBQ Notice D'utilisation D'origine page 8

English
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop­
f.
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool
g.
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc­
tions, taking into account the working con­
ditions and the work to be performed. Use
of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a haz­
ardous situation.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
h.
clean and free from oil and grease. Slip­
pery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
5 SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a quali­
a.
fied repair person using only identical re­
placement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Only use original Festool parts for repair
b.
and maintenance. The use of incompatible
accessories or spare parts can result in
electric shocks or other injuries.
3.2 Machine-specific safety notices
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
–
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting ac­
cessory contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric
shock.
– Use clamps or another practical way to se­
cure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the workpiece by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
– Festool electric power tools must only be
installed on work tables provided by
Festool for this purpose. If the tool is in­
stalled in another, or self-made, work ta­
ble, it can become unstable and result in
serious accidents.
– Wait until the power tool has come to a
complete halt before placing it down. The
insertion tool can get caught and lead to a
loss of control of the power tool.
– Deformed or cracked saw blades and saw
blades with blunt or broken cutting edges
must not be used.

– The saw blade on the jigsaw must always
be running when it makes contact with the
workpiece.
–
Wear suitable personal protective equip­
ment: Ear protection, protective goggles,
dust mask for work that generates dust,
protective gloves for working with rough
materials and for changing tools.
– Harmful/poisonous dust may be produced
when working (e.g. paint products con­
taining lead and some types of wood).
Contact with or inhalation of this dust may
pose a risk for the operating personnel or
persons in the vicinity. Comply with the
safety regulations that apply in your coun­
try. Connect the power tool to a suitable
dust extractor.
– Always connect the machine to a dust ex­
tractor when performing work that gener­
ates dust.
– Check the plug and the cable regularly and
should either become damaged, in order to
avoid a hazard, have them replaced by an
authorised after-sales service workshop.
Stroboscopic light can cause epileptic
–
seizures. Do not use this machine if you
are susceptible to epileptic seizures.
– Do not look into the stroboscope light.
Looking into the light source can damage
your vision.
3.3 Metal processing
When processing metal, the following
measures must be taken for safety rea­
sons:
– Install an upstream residual-current circuit
breaker (RCD, PRCD).
– Connect the machine to a suitable dust ex­
tractor.
– Regularly remove dust deposits from the
motor housing.
– Use a metal saw blade.
– Close the chip guard.
Wear protective goggles.
