Residual Safety Risks - Protool ISP 330 EB Originalbetriebsanleitung

chain stops can the chain sprocket cover be
removed and the plugged port cleaned. Never
touch the sawdust removal port until the ma-
chine is at a total standstill.
- Turn the machine on only when it is placed on
the piece to be cut. Do not start cutting before
the machine reaches full RPM.
- Do not remove the machine from the cut piece
before the chain has completely stopped.
- Keep your workplace in order. A messy work-
place can cause a work injury.
- Beware of environmental factors. Do not leave
the machine in the rain, and do not use it in a
wet or humid environment. Ensure good lighting
at your workplace and do not use the machine
near fl ammable liquids or gases. Do not put the
hot machine into an environment where ignition
might occur, and keep the machine clean.
- Check the portable cord regularly and have it
replaced at an authorised service centre if dam-
aged. Do not use the portable cord to carry the
machine or to pull the plug out of the socket.
Protect the cord from high temperatures, oil and
movement across sharp edges.
- Take good care of the tools. Only sharp, clean
tools allow you to work better and safer. Do
not use tools that are defective, blunt or of the
wrong size. Follow the instructions for mainte-
nance and replacement of the tools.
- If you are not using the machine, during repair
or tool replacement, unplug the portable cord.
- Before switching the machine on, check that the
plate is secured properly and that the chain is
correctly tightened.
- Never carry the machine with the chain moving.
- Avoid getting the switch stuck in the ON posi-
tion.
- Keep the grips and handles clean and free off
any oil, grease, resin, etc.
- In open areas, use only permissible and ap-
propriately marked extension cords. Regularly
check the extension cord and when it is dam-
aged, replace it immediately.
- During work, keep your body in a normal work-
ing position. Have a fi rm working stance and
always maintain your balance.
- You must check all safety covers and accesso-
ries, as well as the moving parts before each use
of the machine. All the parts must be properly
assembled, and all conditions for proper opera-
tion of the machine must be met. Any damaged
safety covers and accessories must be profes-
sionally repaired or replaced in an authorised
service centre. Damaged switches must be re-
placed by an authorised service centre. Do not
use the machine if the switch cannot be turned
on and off.
- Place the portable cord so that the machine can-
not snag it and so it does not pose any additional
danger, e.g., stumbling.
- When not using the machine, always have the
protective chain cover on; the same applies
when carrying the machine.
- Once the cut is fi nished and the machine is
switched off, keep the machine in the working
position until the tool stops completely.
- We recommend putting the machine on the
guide runner. This will help you avoid potential
damage to the chain and the guide bar.
- While the machine is operating, all people, es-
pecially children, must stay clear of the work
area. These unauthorised persons must not be
allowed to touch the machine or its electrical
cord.
- When you are not using the machine, keep it in
a safe, dry, locked location out of the reach of
children and unauthorised individuals.
- Do not use the machine for any purpose that
it is not designed for. Using the machine as a
stationary saw is forbidden.
- Wear suitable tight work clothes. Cut-resistant
clothing is recommended. Do not wear any jew-
ellery, bracelets, watches, etc., that may get
caught in the moving parts. For work in an open
area we recommend wearing rubber gloves and
work boots with anti-slip soles. If your hair is
long, protect it with a net.
- Use only those accessories or special equipment
that are offered for the machine by the manu-
facturer.
- All repairs must be performed only by an au-
thorised service centre by properly qualifi ed per-
sonnel, using original replacement parts. The
warranty does not cover any damages caused
by the use of any inappropriate parts.

Residual safety risks

Even if the machine is used to specifi cation and all
relevant safety regulations are followed, the follow-
ing residual safety risks may nonetheless occur due
to the design of the machine and its usage:
- Injury from the cutting teeth when replacing the
chain.
- Injury from touching the chain on its cutting
area.
- Catching clothes in the moving chain.
- Injury from fl ying scraps or parts of the ma-
chine.
- Danger that may be caused by the portable
cord.
- Kickback caused by the chain or the operating
the tip of the plate jamming.
- Concentration of sawdust jeopardising health in
poorly ventilated areas.
- Injury from touching electrically charged parts
when dismantling the machine or any part of it
while the machine is still plugged in.
- Hearing damage from prolonged work without
ear protectors.
