Special Safety Instructions - Metabo LF 724 S Instrucciones De Manejo

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children 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 tool's 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,
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.
2.5 Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.

3. Special Safety Instructions

Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, because the cutter head may contact
its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and shock the operator.
Wait until the cutter head is at a standstill
before setting down the power tool. An exposed
cutter head can get caught on the surface and lead
to a loss of control and possible serious injury.
Do not place the device on hard surfaces to protect
the reversible cutting plates.
Always wear personal protective equipment, safety
goggles, ear protectors, protective gloves and
heavy-duty footwear during work and for all setting,
conversion and maintenance tasks!
Danger of injury from the sharp
edges of the reversible blades. Pay
attention to the rotating cutter head!
Keep in mind that the motor and thus
the cutter head of your paint remover
continues to run after switching off
the tool.
Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the tool off
when the plug is removed from the mains socket or
if there has been a power cut.
Turn/replace blunt reversible blades in good time:
Worn cutting edges of the reversible blades
increase the risk of kickback and reduce the quality
of the milling operation.
Turn/replace blunt reversible blades always in
pairs.
Do not machine any workpiece surfaces that
contain nails, screws or similar obstacles!
The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against
slipping, e.g. using clamps.
Secure small workpieces. For example, clamp in a
vice.
Opening the protective flaps:
Attention: Danger of injury from the
sharp edges of the blades! Switch off the
machine. The cutter head has to be idle!
A
A: Open the protective flap as shown and
B: fold all the way upwards.
Protective flaps:
All protective flaps have to be closed during surface
milling operations.
During peripheral milling (e.g. at folds) open only
the protective flap pointing towards the workpiece.
High forces are released if the tool jams or catches.
You must therefore always hold the machine with
both hands using the handles provided, assume a
safer stance and concentrate while working.
Additional Warnings:
Some dust created by power
WARNING
sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
