h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on the application, ensure that
you use full face protection, eye protection or goggles. If required, use a dust mask,
ear protectors, protective gloves or a special apron to protect you from grindings
and material particles.
Protect your eyes from flying debris that may be created during
certain applications. Dust or filter masks must be used to filter any dust created by the
application. If you are exposed to loud noise for any length of time, you may suffer
hearing loss.
i) Ensure that other people remain at a safe distance from your workspace. Anyone
who enters the workspace must wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of the
work piece or broken accessory tools can fly off and cause injury – even outside the imme-
diate working area.
j) Hold the power tool only by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the accessory tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a live cable can also make metal parts of the appliance live and could
result in an electric shock.
k) Always hold the power tool firmly. When running up to full speed, the torque of the
motor can cause the power tool to twist.
l) If possible, use clamps to hold the workpiece in position. Never hold a small work-
piece in one hand and the power tool in the other while you are using it.
By clamping
small workpieces, you keep both hands free for better control of the power tool. When
cutting round workpieces such as dowels, rods or pipes, be aware that these can roll
away and this can cause the tool to jam and be thrown towards you.
m) Hold the power cord away from any rotating accessories. If you lose control of the
appliance, the cord may get cut or caught and your hand or arm could get caught in the
rotating accessory tool.
n) Never put the power tool down until the accessory tool has come to a complete
standstill.
The rotating accessory tool can come into contact with the surface and cause
you to lose control of the power tool.
o)
When changing accessory tools or changing settings, tighten the collet nut, the
chuck or other fixing elements tightly.
Loose fastening elements can shift unexpectedly
and lead to loss of control; unsecured, rotating components will fly off violently.
p) Do not leave the power tool running whilst carrying it. Accidental contact between
your clothing and the rotating accessory tool could lead to physical injury.
q) Clean the ventilation slits of your power tool regularly. The engine fan draws dust into
the housing and a strong accumulation of metal dust can cause electrical hazards.
r) Do not use the power tool in the vicinity of flammable materials. Sparks can ignite
such materials.
s) Do not use any accessory tools which require liquid coolant. The use of water or
other liquid coolants may lead to electric shock.
