Personal Safety - Parkside PWS 230 Instrucciones De Utilización Y De Seguridad

Safety
J
Keep the device away from rain or mois-
ture. Water entering an electrical device
increases the risk of electric shock.
J
Do not use the mains lead for any purpose for
which it was not intended, e.g. to carry the de-
vice, to hang it up or to pull the mains plug out of
the mains socket. Keep the mains lead away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts of the
device. Damaged or tangled mains leads or plugs
increase the risk of electric shock.
J
A damaged device, mains lead or
plug presents a serious danger to life
from electric shock. Frequently check
the condition of the device, mains lead and plug.
J
When working outdoors always use extension
cables that are also approved for use outdoors.
The use of an extension cable suitable for out-
door use reduces the risk of electric shock.
J
Hold the device only by the insulated handles;
bear in mind that you might cut through a con-
cealed cable or the device's mains lead.
J
Contact with a live wire can cause metal parts
of the device to become live and lead to elec-
tric shock.
J
Warning! Risk of explosion!
Use a suitable detector to locate con-
cealed services supply cables /
pipes or approach your local public utilities
services providers.
Contact with electricity cables can lead to fire
or electric shock. Damaging a gas pipe can
lead to an explosion.
Penetration of a water pipe can lead to property
damage or to electric shock.
J
Do not use the device if it has any damaged
parts. If a dangerous situation arises pull out
the mains plug from the socket immediately.
J
Warning! - Never open the device.
Always have any repairs carried out or re-
placement parts fitted at the service centre or
by an electrical equipment repair specialist.

Personal safety

Q
J
Remain alert at all times and always watch what
you are doing. Work carefully when using an
electrical power tool. Do not use the device if
you cannot concentrate or are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
Just one moment of carelessness when using
the device can lead to serious injury.
J
Wear personal protective equipment
and always wear safety glasses. The
wearing of personal protec-
tive equipment such as dust masks, non-slip safe-
ty shoes, protective gloves, safety helmets or ear
protectors, appropriate to the type of electrical
power tool used and work undertaken, reduces
the risk of injury.
J
We recommend that you wear rubber gloves
and anti-slip footwear when working outdoors.
J
Avoid unintentional operation of the device.
Make sure that the switch is in the "OFF" position
before you insert the mains plug into the sock-
et. Accidents can happen if you carry the de-
vice with your finger on the ON / OFF switch
or you have already switched the device on
before you connect it to the mains.
J
Remove any setting tools or spanners before
you switch the device on.
A tool or spanner left attached to a rotating
part of a device can lead to injury.
J
Do not overestimate your own abilities. Keep
proper footing and balance at all times. By
doing this you will be in a better position to
control the device in unforeseen circumstances.
J
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves clear of moving parts. If you have long
hair, wear a hair net. Clothing, jewellery or
hair that is loose or hangs from your body,
head or limbs can become trapped in moving
parts.
J
Use dust extraction or trapping equipment if
these facilities can be fitted. If you use a vacuum
dust extraction device, make sure that it is spe-
cially designed to be used for this purpose. The
correct use of these devices reduces the hazard
presented by dust.
