1) Workplace

Keep your work area clean and tidy. Disorder and unlit work areas may result in
accidents.

Do not work with the mortar mixer in hazardous environments where there are
flammable liquids, gases or powders. Electrical tools produce sparks that may ig-
nite the powder or vapours.

Keep children and other persons away from the device during use. If you are dis-
tracted, you may lose control of the device.
2) Electrical safety

The connector plug of the mortar mixer (Schuko) must fit into the intended Schuko
socket. The plug must not be changed in any way. Do not use adapter plugs to-
gether with protective earthing devices. Unchanged plugs and suitable sockets re-
duce the risk of electrical shock.

Avoid bodily contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, heaters, stoves and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is grounded.

Keep the device away from rain or moisture. The penetration of water into an elec-
trical appliance increases the risk of electrical shock.

Do not use the cable to carry the device, to hang it, or to pull the plug out of the
socket. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Dam-
aged or entangled cables increase the risk of electrical shock.
3) Safety of persons

Be attentive, pay attention to what you do, and work rationally. Do not use the
device if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of carelessness during use of the device may result in serious injury.

Wear personal protective equipment and always wear protective goggles. Wearing
personal protective equipment, such as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, re-
duces the risk of injury.

Remove adjusting tools or wrenches before turning the mortar mixer on. A tool or
key that is in a rotating part of the device can cause injury.

Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
