Safety instructions
Work area safety
•
Keep your working area clean and well illuminated. Untidy or dark working area invites acci-
dents.
•
Keep children and other persons away from your working area during operation of the bending
machine. Distractions can lead to loss of control of the device.
•
Do not expose the machine to rain or humidity.
Personal safety
•
Stay alert and fully concentrate on what you are doing while you are using the bending machine.
Do not use the device when being tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medicine. A
moment of inattention, the small it be, might lead to serious injuries during use of the device.
•
Wear a protective equipment. Always wear approved protective goggles. Wearing a safety
equipment such as a dust mask, anti-slip safety shoes, a hardhat, or ear protection reduces the
risk of accidents.
•
Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery, or long hair might get caught by moving parts.
•
Keep your hands away from the clamping jaws.
•
Always ensure a safe stand and keep your balance. This will allow a better control of the device
in unforeseen situations.
Operation and maintenance
•
Do not apply too great a force when using the device. Do not apply additional leverage to clamp
the clamping jaws. If necessary, use a bigger bending machine.
•
Maintain the bending machine on a regular basis. Check if moving parts are badly positioned or
jamming, if parts are broken, or if you detect other factors that could interfere with the correct
operation of the machine. If parts of the bending machine are damaged, have them repaired
before further use. Many accidents are caused by bad maintenance of tools or devices.
