4
WARNING
As with all machinery, there are certain hazards involved with their
operation and use. Exercising respect and caution will considerably lessen
the risk of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are
overlooked, or ignored, personal injury to the operator may result.
•
KNOW YOUR MACHINE. Read the manual carefully. Learn the machines
applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards peculiar to it.
•
KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
•
EARTH ALL MACHINES. If the machine is equipped with three-pin plug, it should
be plugged into a three-pin electrical socket. Never remove the earth pin.
•
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
•
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
•
DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use machinery in damp or
wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep work area well lit.
•
KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All children and visitors should be kept a
safe distance from work area.
•
MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF - with padlocks, master switches or by
removing starter keys.
•
DON’T FORCE THE MACHINE. It will do the job better and safer, at the rate for
which it was designed.
•
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force a tool or attachment to do a job for which it was
not designed.
•
WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or
other jewellery may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is
recommended. Long hair should be contained.
•
USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty.
Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety
glasses.
•
USE EAR DEFENDERS.
•
DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
•
MAINTAIN TOOLS IN TOP CONDITION. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and
safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
