The metal strands can easily penetrate light clothing and / or skin.
b- If the use of a protective cover is recommended for wire brushing, prevent the cup brush or
wire brush to hinder on the protective cover.
The cup brush or wire brush may expand in diameter due to the workload and centrifugal forces.
3.9- Additional Safety Instructions
a- Wear safety goggles
b- Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local
utility company for assistance.
The
c
ontact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock.
Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line can cause property damage or may
cause an electric shock.
c- Release the On/Off switch and set it to the “OFF” position when the power supply is
interrupted,
e. g., in case of a power failure or when the mains plug is pulled.
This prevents uncontrolled
restarting.
d- When working stone, use dust extraction. The vacuum cleaner must be approved for the
extraction of stone dust.
Using this equipment reduces dust-related hazards.
e- Use a cutting guide when cutting stone.
Without sideward guidance, the cutting disc can jam and
cause kickback.
f- When working with the machine, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide for a
secure stance.
The power tool is guided more secure with both hands.
g- Secure the workpiece.
A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure
than by hand.
h- Keep your workplace clean.
The mixture of
materials is particularly dangerous. Dust from light
alloys can burn or explode.
i- Never use the tool with a damaged cable. Do not touch the damaged cable and pull the mains
plug when the cable is damaged while working.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
A damaged cable increases the risk of an electric shock.
3.10-
Residual risks
Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The
following hazards may arise in connection with the tool’s construction and design:
a. Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask is not worn.
b. Damage to hearing if effective hearing protection is not worn.
c. Health defects resulting from vibration emission if the power tool is being used over longer period of
time or not adequately managed and properly maintained.
3.11- Noise, vibrations and electromagnetic field information
a- Noise level
Wear hearing protection while operating the power tool.
The noise level has been measured in accordance with a standard test method (EN60745).
The declared noise level values are mentioned in the characteristics table.
ATTENTION!
The machine’s operation generates a certain level of noise. National or local regulations
regarding noise nuisance may restrict the use of the machine to certain hours. Check with your local
authority.
b- Vibration level
