✔
Beware with what is going on and use
common sense when operating the
equipment. Do not use it when you are
tired, distracted or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medicine. A slight
distraction may result in a serious injury.
✔
Wear protection equipment. Always wear
goggles. Wearing protection equipment like
gloves, shoes, and ear plugs increases your
protection and reduces the risk of an
accident.
Wear proper clothes. Wear neither loose
✔
clothes nor jewelry.
✔
Take precautions against accidental
running. Make sure the switch is set to "off"
before plugging the equipment in. Failure to
do so may cause a serious accident.
✔
Remove all objects before turning on the
equipment. A tool or any other object stuck
in the movable parts of the equipment may
result in an injury.

not be controlled if the on/off switch is
damaged. A defective switch shall be

✔
Switch off the circuit breaker, remove the
fuses or unplug the equipment before
servicing, substituting the cutting blades
and accessories. These safety preventive
measures reduce the risk of accidental
operation of the equipment.

to protect the user against serious electrical
shock risk (consult an electrician).
