that can cause damage or injuries.

and/or loosen clothing that could be easily caught in mechanical parts.
PROTECTIVE
FACE
SHIELD
Face shield to be used when working on electrical parts, especially
when live
WARNING:
The machine does not exceed the noise level established by law; therefore
hearing protection earmuffs are not mandatory.
However, the operator must also carefully evaluate the environment of use: if it is very noisy,
protective earmuffs must be used. When using protective earmuffs, the operator must pay
even more attention, as one of the senses of perception of danger (hearing) is missing.
Observe the surrounding environment well, as the visual perception must compensate for the
lacking sense of hearing.
