5. HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION
Wait for the machine to stop.
Unless the machine is fitted with a safety brake, some parts may
continue to move due to momentum. Wait for all parts to stop, then unplug it from the power
supply before making any adjustments, carrying out maintenance operations or just finishing using
the tool.
Remove and check setting tools.
Some machinery requires the use of additional tools or keys to
set, load or adjust the power tool. Before starting the power tool always check to make certain they
have been removed and are safely away from the machine.
Prevent unintentional starting.
Before plugging any machine in to the power supply, make sure
the switch is in the OFF position. If the machine is portable, do not hold the machine near the
switch and take care when putting the machine down, that nothing can operate the switch.
Carefully select an extension lead.
Some machines are not suitable for use with extension leads.
If the tool is designed for use outdoors, use an extension lead also suitable for that environment.
When using an extended lead, select one capable of handling the current (amps) drawn by the
machine in use. Fully extend the lead regardless of the distance between the power supply and
the tool. Excess current (amps) and a coiled extension lead will both cause the cable to heat up
and can result in fire.
Concentrate and stay alert.
Distractions are likely to cause an accident. Never operate a power
tool if you are under the influence of drugs (prescription or otherwise), including alcohol or if you
are feeling tired. Being disorientated will result in an accident.
Have this tool repaired by a qualified person.
This tool is designed to conform to the relevant
international and local standards and as such should be maintained and repaired by someone
qualified, using only original parts supplied by the manufacturer. This will ensure the tool remains
safe to use.
5.2 SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR IMPACT WRENCH USE
Important:
Draper Tools Limited recommends that this machine should not be modified or used for
any application other than that for which it was designed. If you are unsure of its relative
applications do not hesitate to contact us in writing and we will advise you.
– Power tools shall not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres unless specifically designed
for that purpose.
– Unexpected tool movement due to reaction forces or breakage of inserted tool or reaction bar
may cause injuries.
– Power tools shall be isolated from the energy source before changing or adjusting the inserted
tool.
Warning!
●
There is a risk of crushing by torque between a reaction bar and the workpiece.
●
There is a risk of loose clothing, hair etc., being caught in the rotating spindle of the power
supply
tool.
●
There is a risk of being injured if hands are not kept away from the reaction bar, specially
observed when unscrewing in confined work spaces.
●
There is a risk of being injured if hands are not kept away from the impact socket.
●
There is a risk of danger to persons from high speed splinters being emitted from impact
wrenches in the case of socket failure. Only use properly hardened impact sockets with this
machine.
– Use only sockets and adaptors which are in good condition and are intended for use with
impact wrenches.
– Adopt a suitable posture to counteract normal or unexpected movement of the power tool due
to reaction forces from the power assembly tool.
