Electric shock
–
The blade may contact hidden wiring causing parts
of the product to become live. Always hold the
product by the designated handles and take care
when blind-cutting into walls and floors where cables
may be hidden.
NOTE: When working on walls, ceilings, or floors, take
care to avoid electric cables and gas or water pipes.
■
Injury from contact with the cutting blade
–
The blades are sharp and will become hot during
use. Wear gloves when changing blades. Keep
hands away from the cutting area at all times. Never
hold workpiece being cut in your hands or across
your leg. Clamp the work piece whenever possible.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness, and blanching of the fi ngers, usually apparent
upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to
cold and dampness, diet, smoking, and work practices
are all thought to contribute to the development of these
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the
operator to possibly reduce the eff ects of vibration:
■
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating
the unit, wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists
warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor
contributing to Raynaud's Syndrome.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to increase
blood circulation.
■
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure
per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your doctor about
these symptoms.
WARNING
Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by prolonged
use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods,
ensure you take regular breaks.
