General Power Tool Safety Warnings - Makita GA039G Betriebsanleitung

WARNING:
The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool can di er from the declared
value(s) depending on the w ays in w hich the tool is used especially w hat kind of w orkpiece is processed.
WARNING:
Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation
of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the
times when the tool is switched o and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time .
WARNING:
T h e d e c l a r e d v i b r a t i o n e m i s s i o n v a l u e i s u s e d f o r m a i n a p p l i c a t i o n s o f t h e p o w e r t o o l . H o w e v e r i f
the power tool is used for other applications, the vibration emission value may be di erent.
WARNING:
Grinding thin sheets of metal or other easily vibrating structures w ith a large surface can
result in a total noise emission much higher (up to 15 dB) than the declared noise emission values.
Set heavy exible damping mats or such to those workpieces to prevent them from emitting sound.
Take the increased noise emission into consideration for both the risk assessment of noise exposure and
selecting adequate hearing protection.

O p e r a t i o n s f o r w h i c h t h e p o w e r t o o l w a s n o t d e s i g n e d
may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
3 . Do not convert this po w er tool to operate in
a way which is not specifically designed and
specified by the tool manufacturer. S u c h a c o n -
version may result in a loss of control and cause
serious personal injury.
4. Do not use accessories w hich are not spe-
cifically designed and specified by the tool
manufacturer. Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not assure
s a f e o p e r a t i o n .
5. The rated speed of the accessory must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the po w er tool. A c c e s s o r i e s r u n n i n g f a s t e r t h a n
their rated speed can break and fly apart.
6. The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be w ithin the capacity rating
of your po w er tool. Incorrectly sized accessories
cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
7 . The dimensions of the accessory mounting
must fit the dimensions of the mounting hard-
w are of the po w er tool. A c c e s s o r i e s t h a t d o n o t
m a t c h t h e m o u n t i n g h a r d w a r e o f t h e p o w e r t o o l
will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and
may cause loss of control.
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
8.
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive
w heels for chips and cracks, backing pad for
cracks, tear or excess w ear, w ire brush for
loose or cracked w ires. If po w er tool or acces-
sory is dropped, inspect for damage or install
an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and
installing an accessory, position yourself and
bystanders a w ay from the plane of the rotating
accessory and run the po w er tool at maximum
no-load speed for one minute. D a m a g e d a c c e s -
sories will normally break apart during this test
t i m e .
9. Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. As appro-
priate, w ear dust mask, hearing protectors,
gloves and w orkshop apron capable of stop-
ping small abrasive or w orkpiece fragments.
The eye protection must be capable of stopping
flying debris generated by various applications.
T h e d u s t m a s k o r r e s p i r a t o r m u s t b e c a p a b l e
of filtrating particles generated by the particular
application. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
10. Keep bystanders a safe distance a w ay from
w ork area. Anyone entering the w ork area
must w ear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory
may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate
a r e a o f o p e r a t i o n .
11. Hold the po w er tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, w hen performing an operation
w here the cutting tool may contact hidden
