If foreign bodies get into the cutting tool or the machine generates unusual noises
or vibrates in a strange way, switch off the motor immediately and allow the
machine to come to a standstill.
Pull out the mains plug and carry out the following work:
- Check the machine for signs of damage
- Check that all the parts are secure and tighten them if necessary.
- Have any damaged parts replaced or repaired, but use only spare parts
of the same type and equivalent quality
•
If the machine is blocked switch off the motor and pull out the mains before you
start the cleaning procedure. Ensure that the motor is clear of waste and other
accumulations to protect the motor from suffering damage or possibly catching fire.
•
Ensure that all the covers and guards are in position and in good working order.
•
Do not tip the machine whilst the motor is running.
•
Switch off the machine before you fit or remove the collection container.
•
The tool must only be used outdoors in a clear open space.
•
Damaged or illegible labels must be replaced.
•
Allow the tool to cool before carrying out any maintenance work, adjustments, etc.
•
Never use the machine while other people or animals are nearby.
•
When inserting material take special care to ensure that it does not contain any
metal, stones, bottles, cans or other foreign bodies.
•
Do not allow processed material to accumulate within the discharge area;
this could prevent the machine being able to discharge correctly and result
in material recoiling through the infeed opening.
•
When servicing the cutting tool, remember that it may still be moving due to the
starting mechanism, even if the motor is not running because of the cover interlock.
•
Children must not be permitted to use the machine.
•
Wear ear protectors, gloves and safety goggles. Wear these throughout the time
the machine is in operation.
•
Before starting the machine, check all screws, nuts, bolts and other fastening
materials to ensure that they are secure and that all covers and guards are in
position. Damaged or illegible labels must be replaced.
•
Connect the equipment to the power supply only via an earth-leakage circuit
breaker with max. 30mA tripping current.
