Special safety instructions.
Hold the tool by the insulated gripping sur-
faces when performing operations where the
application tool could contact hidden wires.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator.
Secure the work piece firmly. A work piece
that is gripped tightly in a clamping device or
vice, is more secure than if held by hand.
Disconnect the energy supply before making
any pneumatic tool adjustments, changing
accessories, or placing the pneumatic tool
aside. This precaution prevents accidental
starting of the tool.
Pay attention to hidden conductors/leads, gas
and water pipes. Before beginning to work,
check the working area, e. g., with a metal
detector.
Handling hazardous dusts.
When working with power
WARNING
tools, such as when grinding,
sanding, polishing, sawing or for other work
procedures where material is removed, dusts
develop that are both hazardous to one's
health and can spontaneously combust or be
explosive.
Contact with or inhaling some dust types can
trigger allergic reactions to the operator or
bystanders and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions, cancer, birth defects or other reproduc-
tive harm.
Examples of such materials which contain
chemicals that can produce hazardous dusts,
are:
– Asbestos and materials containing asbes-
tos;
– Lead-containing coatings, some wood
types such as beech and oak;
– Minerals and metal;
– Silicate particles from bricks, concrete and
other materials containing stone;
– Solvent from solvent-containing paint/
varnish;
Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on application, use face shield, safety
goggles or safety glasses. Where appropriate,
wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves
and workshop apron capable of stopping
small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The
safety glasses must be capable of protecting
against flying particles generated by the vari-
ous operations. Prolonged exposure to high
intensity noise may cause loss of hearing.
Do not direct the application tool against
yourself, other persons or animals. Danger of
injury from sharp or hot application tools.
Grasp the power tool in such a safe manner
that your body never comes into contact with
the application tool, especially while working
with application tools such as saw blades or
other blades pointed toward the grasping
range. Touching sharp tips or cutting edges
can lead to injuries.
– Arsenic, chromium and other wood pre-
servatives;
– Materials for pesticide treatment on boat
and ship hulls;
– Stainless steel dust, metal dust and non-
ferrous metal dust;
To minimize the unwanted intake of these
materials:
– Use dust extraction matched appropriately
for the developing dust.
– Use personal protective equipment, such
as a P2 filter-class dust protection mask.
– Provide for good ventilation of the work-
place.
The risk from inhaling dusts depends on how
often these materials are worked. Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked on
by specialists.
Wood and light-metal dust can
CAUTION
cause spontaneous combus-
tion or explosions.
