SAFETY PROCEDURES
●
When using electrical tools, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, and personal injury.
●
Do
NOT
use in wet or damp conditions. Failure to do so may result in
personal injury.
●
Do
NOT
use in the presence of flammable liquids or gases. Failure to do
so may result in personal injury.
●
ALWAYS SECURE THE MACHINE WITH THE SAFETY CHAIN WHEN
WORKING VERTICALLY OR OVERHEAD BEFORE STARTING TO OPERATE.
●
Always wear approved eye and ear protection when the equipment is in
operation. Failure to do so may result in personal injury.
●
Disconnect from the power source when changing cutters or working on
the machine.
●
When changing cutters, or removing swarf, ALWAYS wear approved
gloves.
●
ALWAYS ENSURE CUTTER RETAINING SCREWS ARE SECURE – they
sometimes vibrate loose when the machine is in continuous use.
●
Regularly clear the work area and machine of swarf and dirt, paying
particular attention to the underside of the magnet base.
●
With a gloved hand, and after switching off, remove any swarf which might
have gathered around the cutter and arbor before proceeding with the next
hole.
