Make sure that there is always another person close at hand
when you use the machine, so that you can call for help if an
accident should occur.
Personal protective equipment
You must use approved personal protective equipment
whenever you use the machine. Personal protective
equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will reduce
the degree of injury if an accident does happen. Ask your
dealer for help in choosing the right equipment.
WARNING! The use of products such as
cutters, grinders, drills, saws that sand or
form material can generate dust and vapours
which may contain hazardous chemicals.
Check the nature of the material you intend
to process and use an appropriate breathing
mask.
Long-term exposure to noise can result in
permanent hearing impairment. Always use
approved hearing protection. Listen for
warning signals or shouts when you are
wearing hearing protection. Always remove
your hearing protection as soon as the
engine stops.
Always wear:
• Approved head gear
• Hearing protection
• Approved eye protection. If you use a face shield then you
must also wear approved protective goggles. Approved
