Original Instructions

 

CAUTION

 

Moving parts

Risk for crushed hands and fingers.

u

Never check bores or passages with hands or fin-

gers.

3.4 Operation, precautions

 

DANGER

 

Explosion hazard

If a warm insertion tool comes into contact with explo-

sives, an explosion could occur. During operation with

certain materials as well as use of certain materials in

machine parts, sparks and ignition can occur. Explosions

will lead to severe injuries or death.

u

Never operate the machine in any explosive environ-

ment.

u

Never use the machine near flammable materials,

fumes or dust.

u

Make sure that there are no undetected sources of

gas or explosives.

u

Never drill in an old hole.

 

DANGER

 

Electrical hazard

The machine is not electrically insulated. If the machine

comes into contact with electricity, serious injuries or

death may result.

u

Never operate the machine near any electric wire or

other source of electricity.

u

Make sure that there are no concealed wires or other

sources of electricity in the working area.

 

WARNING

 

Operating pressure

If the maximum operating pressure for the hydraulic ma-

chine is exceeded, the accumulator can be over charged

which can result in material damage and personal injury.

u

Always run the hydraulic machine with the correct

operating pressure. See "Technical data".

 

WARNING

 

Unexpected movements

The working tool is exposed to heavy strains when the

machine is used. The working tool may break due to fa-

tigue after a certain amount of use. If the working tool

breaks or gets stuck, there may be sudden and unex-

pected movement that can cause injuries. Furthermore,

losing your balance or slipping may cause injury.

u

Make sure that you always keep a stable position

with your feet as far apart as your shoulder width,

and keeping a balanced body weight.

u

Always inspect the equipment prior to use. Never

use the equipment if you suspect that it is damaged.

u

Make sure that the handles are clean and free of

grease and oil.

u

Keep your feet away from the working tool.

u

Stand firmly and always hold on to the machine with

both hands.

u

Never drill in an old hole.

u

Never start the machine when it is lying on the

ground.

u

Never ‘ride’ on the machine with one leg over the

handle.

u

Never strike or abuse the equipment.

u

Check regularly for wear on the working tool, and

check whether there are any signs of damage or visi-

ble cracks.

u

Pay attention and look at what you are doing.

 

WARNING

 

Stalling hazard

If the working tool gets caught during operation, the

whole machine may will start to rotate if you lose your

grip on it. This unexpected rotation of the entire machine

may cause serious injury.

u

Stand firmly and always hold onto the machine with

both hands.

u

Make sure that the handle or handles are clean and

free from grease and oil.

u

Never drill in an old hole.

 

WARNING

 

Trapping hazard

There is risk of neck ware, hair, gloves and clothes get-

ting dragged into or caught by a rotating insertion tool or

accessories. This may cause choking, scalping, lacera-

tions or death. To reduce the risk:

u

Never grab or touch a rotating drill steel.

u

Avoid wearing clothing, neck ware or gloves that may

get caught.

u

Cover long hair with a hair net.

There is risk of getting trapped between the machine

and the roof/wall should the machine, for any reason, tip

over. There is also risk for crushed hands and fingers

when extending the pusher leg.
