STARTING UP
When choosing where to use the power tool, the following
should be considered:
- that the area is not damp and is sheltered from the elements.
- that the working area is sufficiently large and free from
obstacles.
- that the area is well lit.
- that the tool is used close to the interrupter switch.
- that the power supply is equipped with an earthing function
in accordance with general rules (only if the tool is in Class
I, and equipped with an earthing cable).
- that the room temperature is between 10° and 35°C.
- that the environment is not in a flammable/explosive atmo-
sphere.
Take out the machine and components and visually check that
they are perfectly intact; then proceed to thoroughly clean them
in order to remove any protective oils from metal surfaces.
