• Avoid body contact with
earthed or grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators,
cookers and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
• Always use caution and
take on a firm and well-
balanced position.
• Do not lose your balance.
• Make sure to avoid violent
impacts against foreign bodies
and prevent the air low from
throwing any material and dust.
• Do not direct the air jet
towards persons or animals.
• When used as a blower always
pay the utmost attention to
prevent removed material or
dust from injuring people or
animals or damaging property.
• Never insert objects into the
vacuum inlet (when being used
as vacuum collector) and avoid
the intake of large objects
that could damage the rotor.
• Never run, always walk.
• Always keep your face,
hands, and body away from
the intake grille and air outlet
and do not obstruct the
airways both when starting
and utilising the machine.
• The rotating parts can
cause serious injuries; avoid
contact with these parts
while they are still rotating.
• If something breaks or an
accident occurs during work,
turn off the motor immediately
and move the machine away
to prevent further damage;
if an accident occurs with
injuries or third parties are
injured, carry out the first aid
measures most suitable for
the situation immediately and
contact the medical authorities
for any necessary health
care. Carefully remove any
debris which could cause
damage or injury to persons
or animals if ignored.
• Prolonged exposure to
vibrations can cause injuries
and neurovascular disorders
(also called "Raynaud's
syndrome" or "white finger"),
especially to people suffering
from circulation disorders.
The symptoms can regard
the hands, wrists and fingers
and are shown through loss
of sensitivity, torpor, itching,
pain and discolouring of or
structural changes to the skin.
These effects can be worsened
by low ambient temperatures
and/or by gripping the hand
grips excessively tightly. If
the symptoms occur, the
length of time the machine
is used must be reduced
and a doctor consulted.
