Specific Safety Rules - Festool DOMINO DF 500 Manual De Instrucciones

b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying
power tools with your fi nger on the switch or plug-
ging in power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of these
devices can reduce dust related hazards.
4) Tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing acces-
sories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc., in accordance with these instructions and
in the manner intended for the particular type
of power tool, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of
the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Slippery handles do not allow for safe
handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Specifi c Safety Rules
a) The tools must be rated for at least the speed
marked on the power tool. Tools running over rated
speed can fl y apart and cause injury.
b) Always use the guard. The guard protects the
operator from broken tool fragments and uninten-
tional contact with the tool.
c) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cut-
ting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of
the power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
d) Keep hands away from the cutting area. Never
place your hand on the front face of the fence while
the tool is running.
e) Never operate the joiner without the fence at-
tached. When the fence is removed from the joiner,
the spinning and oscillating cutter is exposed and
can cause serious injury.
f) Use only Festool authorized mortising bits.
Non-approved mortising bits can come loose dur-
ing operation.
g) Never use dull or damaged mortising bits. Dull
or damaged mortising bits can cause the tool to
lurch sideways unexpectedly and lead to a loss of
control of the power tool.
h) Do not operate the tool if the spring-loaded
fence does not return to its forward rest position.
The fence covers the mortising bit and prevents
