Additional Safety Rules - DeWalt DC740 Manual De Instrucciones

changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained
persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other
metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws,
or other small metal objects that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and
clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect
the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before
using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the
manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool, may create a risk of injury when used on
another tool.
SERVICE
• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair
personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts.
Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual.
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance
Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.

Additional Safety Rules

• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing
an operation where the tool may contact hidden wiring.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of
the tool "live" and shock the operator.
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses
are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting
operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY
EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3)
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING: Some dust created by power 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 chemically-treated lumber
(CCA).
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.
• Avoid prolonged contact
sanding, sawing, grinding,
construction activities. Wear protective clothing and
wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing
dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
CAUTION: Wear appropriate personal hearing protection
during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise
from this product may contribute to hearing loss.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable
surface where it will not cause a tripping or falling hazard.
