Heat Gun Safety Warnings - Ryobi HG600 Manuel D'utilisation

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
 The nozzle of the heat gun becomes very hot during
operation and should not be touched until the tool has
cooled. Always hold the tool by the insulated gripping
surface to reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
 Heat guns produce very high temperatures and must
be used with caution to prevent combustible material
from igniting. Keep tool in constant motion; do not
stop or dwell in one spot. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of fire or serious personal injury.
 Excessive heat can generate fumes which may be
dangerous when inhaled. Wear a dust respirator mask
or dual filter respirator mask when using the heat gun.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal
injury.
 Keep a fully charged fire extinguisher close at hand
for emergency use. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of fire or serious injury.
 Do not leave the heat gun unattended while running or
cooling down. Always set tool on a flat, level surface
so nozzle tip is directed upwards, away from support-
ing surface, while running or cooling down. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of fire or serious injury.
 Know your power tool. Read operator's manual care-
fully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well
as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious injury.

HEAT GUN SAFETY WARNINGS

SERVICE
 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
 When servicing a power tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Main-
tenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized
parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may
create a risk of shock or injury.
 Always wear eye protection marked to comply with
ANSI Z87.1. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
 Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protectors during
extended periods of operation. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
 Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have
repaired at your nearest Authorized Service Center.
Constantly stay aware of cord location. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.
 Check damaged parts. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should
be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced
by an authorized service center. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of shock, fire, or serious injury.
 Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is
recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or less
in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not recom-
mended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
 Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this product.
If you loan someone this product, loan them these
instructions also to prevent misuse of the product and
possible injury.
