When transporting or storing the machine, always
cover the blade. An appropriate use of the machine
will greatly reduce the risk of accidental contact with
the cutting elements.
Store the machine well away from children.
2.2.1. WORK CLOTHES
Dress adequately. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewels. Maintain your hair, clothes and gloves well
away from all moving parts.
Use eye and ear protection always when using the
machine.
The noise of the machine is uncomfortable.
Always use ear protection. If you use this machine
very often, visit your doctor regularly to check up on
your hearing capacity.
Attention! As you are working with ear
protectors, you must pay more attention to visual
warnings as you will hear less because of the ear
protectors.
We highly recommend the use of protection for head,
hands, arms and feet.
The use of appropriate working equipment and
conditions such as anti dust masks, working gloves,
non slippery boots and helmet will reduce the risk of
personal injury. The use of appropriate working clothes
will protect you from projected debris and in case of
contact with the cutting elements of the machine.
You must always carry:
• Tooling.
• Signalling tape to limit work area.
• Mobile phone (for use in case of an emergency).
2.2.2. VIBRATIONS
The prolonged use of the machine, exposes
the client to vibrations that in extreme cases and
through many hours of use of the machine could
cause the ¨white finger syndrome¨ also known as
Raynaud phenomenon. This causes a reduction in
the tact of the fingers and their capacity to regulate
temperature generating a lack of sensibility. This
sickness could in extreme cases cause problems with
the nerve endings.
The exposure to the vibrations is the cause of
the white finger syndrome. To minimise this
effect as much as possible, follow the following
recommendations:
• Always use gloves
• Always have your hands warm
• Take frequent breaks
• Always hold the machine tightly by the handles
If you detect any of the symptoms of the white finger
syndrome, consult immediately with your doctor.
2.3. SECURITY IN THE WORKPLACE
Maintain the working area always clean and only
work with good illumination. Untidy and dark work
places cause accidents.
Do not work with the machine in areas with an
explosive atmosphere or near inflammable liquids,
gases or dust.
Maintain children and passers-by well clear when
working with the machine. Distractions can cause a
lack of control.
Ensure that neither children, passers-by nor animals
enter the working area.
