Only hold the power tool by its insulated surfaces, which
prevent electric shock if the power tool contacts hidden
wires or power cord during operation.
Never use the power cord to pull, carry or unplug the power
tool. Damaged power cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
Keep the power cord and plug away from heat sources, oil,
sharp objects and rotating accessories. Check the
condition of the power cord regularly, if it is damaged, it
must be replaced or repaired by a qualified technician.
Never change the power cord plug and use a socket which
is compatible with the plug. Do not use any kind of socket
adaptor.
The use of extension cords to plug in the power cord is not
recommended. However, if you use an extension cord, you
should take some precautions, such as:
▪ If you operate the power tool outdoors, use only
extension cords suitable for outdoor use. The use of a
suitable extension cord reduces the risk of electric
shock;
▪ Use only extension cords, plugs and sockets with earth
terminal;
▪ The cross-section of the extension cord's conductors
shall be proportional to the length and with the same
characteristics as or larger than the paddle mixer's
power cord;
▪ Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine the
extension cords before using them and replace if
necessary;
▪ Always unplug the extension cord before removing the
plug from the power tool;
▪ When using an extension cord reel, unroll the cord
completely.
Individuals who have not read the instruction manual and
are not familiarized with how to operate the paddle mixer
must not use it.
To ensure that you work with the power tool safely, you
should consider a few precautions and procedures before
start-up:
▪ Inspect the power tool before each use. Check that all
accessories are assembled correctly and in good
condition. If there is damage or excessive wear, replace
them;
▪ Check that all bolts are properly tightened. Regular
inspection is important to ensure safety issues and the
performance of the power tool;
▪ After fitting the mixing paddle carry out a test run at
maximum speed with no load for some time. Check for
any misalignment or any other condition that may affect
the operation of the paddle mixer. Check that all moving
parts run smoothly, without abnormal noise and sparks
in the carbon brushes;
▪ Check that the safety devices are in perfect condition
and function properly. Never use the power tool if the
safety devices are missing, inhibited, damaged or worn
out;
▪ Ensure the switch is off when plugging in the power cord.
If the switch is damaged or does not enable you to
control the functioning of the machine, it must be
repaired or replaced in order to
unintentional start;
▪ Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the
power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
Make all adjustments and work necessary for the correct
assembly of the power tool if you have any questions or
difficulties, contact your official dealer.
Keep third parties away from the power tool's area of
operation. Never work while animals or people,
especially children, are in the danger zone.
Keep the work area clean, organized and well lit (250 to 300
lux), thus decreasing the risk of accidents.
Always wear personal protective equipment and clothing.
Wearing a visor or goggles, dust mask, hearing protection,
anti-slip safety shoes, long-sleeved clothing, gloves and
helmet properly reduces the risk of injury.
