General Safety Instructions For Compressed Air Tools; Hazards Caused By Flying Parts; Hazards During Operation - Parkside PDMH 4500 B5 Originalbetriebsanleitung

NOTE
► The noise emission levels and vibration values
specified in these instructions have been meas-
ured in accordance with the corresponding
standardised measuring procedure and can
be used to make equipment comparisons . The
noise emission levels and vibration values vary
depending on the use of the compressed air
tool and may be higher than the values speci-
fied in these instructions in some cases . It is
easy to underestimate the noise emission lev-
els and vibration values if the compressed air
tool is used regularly in this manner .

WARNING!
► Please ensure that you have read and under-
stood the safety instructions regarding multiple
hazards before installation, operation, repair,
service and replacement of any accessories
and before working near the non-rotary per-
cussive tool . Otherwise, there is a risk of seri-
ous physical injuries .
■ The non-rotary percussive tool should only be
set up, adjusted or used by qualified and
trained operators .
■ The non-rotary percussive tool may not be modi-
fied . Modifications can reduce the effectiveness
of the safety measures and increase the risks for
the operator .
■ Do not lose the safety instructions – hand them
to the operator .
■ Never use a damaged non-rotary percussive tool .
■ The machine must be serviced regularly to
check whether the rated values and labels re-
quired in the relevant part of ISO 11148 are
marked on the machine in a legible manner .
The employee/user must contact the manufac-
turer to obtain replacement labels if necessary .

Hazards caused by flying parts

■ Disconnect the non-rotary percussive tool from
the energy supply before changing the machine
tool or accessory .
■ If the workpiece, one of the accessories or even
the machine itself breaks, parts can be flung out
at a high speed .
■ Always wear impact-resistant eye protection
when operating the non-rotary percussive tool .
The level of the required protection must be
evaluated separately for each individual task .
■ Wear a safety helmet if working above head
height .
■ In this case, the risks for others should also be
assessed .
■ You must ensure that the workpiece has been
securely fixed in place .
■ Do not operate the machine unless the machine
tool is properly attached to the machine with a
suitable locking mechanism .
■ To prevent injury, all worn, broken or bent parts
of the locking mechanism must be replaced
immediately .
■ Before switching on the machine, make sure the
machine tool is firmly placed on the surface to
be processed .

Hazards during operation

■ When using the machine, the operator's hands
may be exposed to hazards such as knocks,
cuts, abrasions and heat . Wear suitable gloves
to protect your hands .
■ The operator and the maintenance personnel
must be physically capable of handling the size,
weight and power of the machine .
■ Hold the machine correctly: be ready to coun-
teract any normal or sudden movements – keep
both hands ready .
■ Ensure that your body is balanced and that you
have a firm footing .
■ Release the start/stop control in the event of a
disruption to the electricity supply .
■ Use only the lubricants recommended by the
manufacturer .
