Personal protective equipment
WARNING:
instructions that follow before you use the
product.
• Always use approved personal protective equipment
during operation. Personal protective equipment
cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will reduce
the degree of injury if an accident does happen. Ask
your servicing dealer for help in choosing the right
equipment.
• Use an approved protective helmet.
• Use approved hearing protection. Long-term
exposure to noise can result in permanent hearing
impairment. Be aware of warning signals or shouts
when you are wearing hearing protection. Always
remove your hearing protection as soon as the motor
stops.
• Use approved eye protection to decrease the risk
of injury from thrown objects. If you use a face
shield then you must also wear approved protective
goggles. Approved protective goggles must comply
with standard ANSI Z87.1 in the USA or EN 166 in
EU countries. Visors must comply with standard EN
1731.
• Use heavy duty gloves.
• Use approved respiratory protection. The use of
products such as cutters, grinders, drills, that sand
or form material can generate dust and vapours
which may contain hazardous chemicals. Check the
nature of the material you intend to process and use
appropriate breathing mask.
• Use tight-fitting, heavy-duty and comfortable
clothing that permits full freedom of movement.
Cutting generates sparks that can ignite clothing.

or rayon. If ignited such material can melt and cling
to the skin. Do not wear shorts.
