fi res or poisoning in the event of gas leaking from a damaged
duct. Damage to existing installations. Flooding in the event of
water leaking from damaged ducts.
Electrical connections must be made using conductors with a
suitable cross section.
Fire caused by overheating due to the electrical current passing
through cables that are too small.
Protect connection cables to prevent them from being da-
maged.
Contact with live conductors can cause electrocution. Explosions,
fi res or poisoning in the event of gas leaking from a damaged
duct. Flooding in the event of water leaking from damaged ducts.
Check that the part and the installations to which the ap-
pliance will be connected comply with the current applicable
standards.
Contact with incorrectly installed live conductors can cause elec-
trocution. Damage to the appliance due to unsuitable operating
conditions.
Use accessories and manual equipment suited to the utilisa-
tion (ensure that the tool is not damaged and the handle is
securely attached and in good condition), use this equipment
correctly, protect it against being accidentally dropped and
store it after use.
Personal injury caused by projected shards or fragments, inha-
ling dust, being hit, or cuts, pricks or abrasions Damage to the

ciently sturdy,
that the steps are non-slip and in good condition, and that
they have a guard rail running the length of the ramp and
along the platform.
Injury can be caused by falling from a raised height.
When working in height (generally in the event
of use when height diff
erences of more than
2 m exist), ensure there is safety railing surrounding the wor-
king area or that personal equipment is used that prevents
falling, that the route of any potential fall is nor obstructed
with dangerous objects, and that any possible impact would
be cushioned by semi-rigid or deformable supports.
Injury can be caused by falling from a raised height.
Make sure that the health and safety conditions are adequate
in terms of lighting, ventilation, structural soundness and
emergency exits.

While work is being carried out, safety clothing and personal
protective equipment should be used.
Personal injury can be caused by electrocution, projected shards
or fragments, inhaling dust, being hit, or cuts, pricks, abrasions,
noise or vibrations.
Ensure that all equipment is stored in a way that makes it
simple and safe to handle; avoid creating piles which are in
danger of collapsing.
Damage to the appliance or the surrounding objects as a result of
shocks, impacts, scratching or crushing.
Operations inside the appliance must be carried out with due
care to avoid coming into sudden contact with sharp parts.
