Personal Safety - FLORABEST FLB 3000 A1 Anleitung

eas in which there is a risk of explosions
or fires due to combustible materials,
inflammable liquids, paint, varnish,
benzine etc. Combustible gases and
dust are explosive by their nature. As
a precautionary measure, it is recom-
mended to consult with an expert who
can advise you of how to procure and
use an appropriate fire extinguisher.
3. Protection from electric shocks
Avoid bodily contact with earthed surfac-
es (e.g. pipes, radiators, electric cookers,
fridges).
4. Keep away from children and pets
Children and pets should be kept out of
the working area. Ensure that children
do not handle the machine and do not
touch any extension cables. All power
tools should be kept out of reach of chil-
dren and should preferably be kept in a
secure cabinet or room when not in use.
5. Do not overload the power tool
The power tool works better and more
safely and will benefit you much more if
you use it within the operational limits
for which it was designed.
6. Use the correct tool
Select the correct tool for your task. Do
not use tools for purposes other than
those for which they were intended. Do
not overload small tools with tasks for
which high performance tools are re-
quired. Only use tools for their designed
purpose. Example: Do not use circular
saws for sawing branches or logs.

Personal safety

1. Clothing
Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery
as these can be caught by moving ma-
chine parts.
2. Hair
Long hair should be tied back and cov-
ered with a protective hair net or similar.
3. Eye protection
Wearing of goggles is mandatory (nor-
mal spectacles are not sufficient for
protecting the eyes). Prescription spec-
tacles do not have safety glass.
4. Hearing protection
Hearing protection is recommended
with extended periods of use.
5. Footwear
If heavy objects could fall on your feet
or if there is a risk of slipping on wet or
slippery ground, then suitable non-slip
safety footwear should be worn.
6. Protective headgear
If heavy objects could fall on your head
or if there is a risk of striking your head
on projecting or low obstacles, then a
hard-hat or safety helmet should be
worn.
7. Respiratory protection
If dust is caused when operating the
machine then wear a dust protection
mask. When working with concrete or
synthetic fibre boards, in particular MDF
sheets (medium density fibreboard) the
resin used in these materials can pre-
sent a health risk. Use an approved
face mask with a replaceable filter.
8. Do not mechanically overload the
mains cable
Never disconnect the mains cable plug
from the outlet by pulling or tugging on
the cable. Never carry your power tool
by its cable. Keep the cable away from
heat, oil, solvents and sharp edges. If
the cable should be damaged then
have this replaced by an approved cus-
tomer support centre.
9. Do not lean too far forward
Do not lean too far forward, make sure
you have a stable footing and keep
your balance at all times.
