f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely
to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and con-
trol of the tool in unexpected situations.
5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
Warning!
This power tool generates an electromagnetic field during op-
eration. This field can impair active or passive medical implants
under certain conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious
or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with medical
implants consult with their physician and the manufacturer of
the medical implant prior to operating the power tool.
Safety instructions for the wood-turning machine
• Familiarise yourself with the properties of the machine and
the wood-turning technology before starting the machine.
• Check all workpieces for cracks or knots. Adhesive joints
must be fully hardened before turning.
• Make sure the workpiece is securely engaged and all attach-
ments are secured.
• Before switching on the machine, ensure that the workpiece
can turn freely by turning it by hand.
• Keep your hands and fingers away from the rotating work-
piece.
• Switch off the machine and wait until it has come to a stand-
still before adjusting the workpiece, tailstock or tool support.
• Maintenance, setting, calibration and cleaning may only be
carried out with the engine switched off.
• The machine is only intended for use with wood-turning chis-
els.
• Always store the wood-turning chisel in a safe place before
leaving the workplace.
• Do not operate the wood-turning machine without covers
and protective devices.
• Keep cutting tools sharp.
• Use the lowest speed when starting a new workpiece.
• Always stop the wood-turning machine at the slowest speed.
If the wood-turning machine runs so fast that it vibrates, there
is a danger that the workpiece will be thrown or the cutting
tool pulled out of your hands.
• Do not let cutting tools bite into the workpiece. The wood
can be split or thrown from the lathe.
• Always position the tool support above the centre line of the
wood-turning machine when shaping a workpiece.
• Before attaching a workpiece to the front plate, always
plan as roughly as possible to make it as round as possible.
This minimises the vibrations when rotating the workpiece.
Always attach the workpiece securely to the front plate. Oth-
erwise the workpiece can be thrown away from the wood-
turning machine.
• Use a brush or compressed air to remove wood chippings;
never your hands. The chips will be sharp.
• The cutting tool must always sit firmly in the clamping chuck
and be adjusted so that the protrusion from the piece of
wood is limited. This reduces the chance of the tool breaking
or bending.
• The wood-turning machine must not be crossed while it is in
operation.
• Only insert the workpiece into a cutting tool against the di-
rection of rotation. The workpiece must always turn towards
you.
• Do not leave the device unattended when it is plugged into a
socket, turn it off and pull it out of the socket before leaving it.
• This product is not a toy. Keep out of the reach of children.
• Some dusts caused by the machining contain chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
-
Lead from lead paints
-
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other ma-
sonry products
-
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated wood
• Your risk will vary depending on how often you carry out this
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: Work in a
well-ventilated area and work with approved safety devices,
such as dust masks that have been specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.
• People with pacemakers should consult their doctor before
use. Electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of the pacemaker can
interfere with the pacemaker or cause the pacemaker to fail.
Furthermore, people with pacemakers should:
-
Avoid working alone.
• Properly maintain and check to avoid an electric shock.
• The warnings, precautionary measures and instructions de-
scribed in this user manual cannot cover all possible condi-
tions and situations. The operator must understand that com-
mon sense and caution are factors that cannot be built into
this product but must be provided by the operator.
Additional safety instructions for the use of face
plates
• Make sure the face plate is the correct size to support the
workpiece.
• Make sure that the workpiece is securely attached to the
face plate.
• Before mounting the workpiece on a face plate, cut the work-
piece as close as possible to the final shape.
• Only use a scraper chisel to turn the face plate. Cutting chis-
els can be pulled out of your hands easily.
• Make sure that the wood-turning chisel cannot interfere with
the retaining screws on the finished dimensions of the work-
piece.
