Triton TTS1400 Gebrauchs- Und Sicherheitsanweisung Seite 5

WARNING: When used in Australia or New Zealand, it
is recommended that this tool is ALWAYS supplied via
Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual
current of 30mA or less.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
d) 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.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such 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.
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.
Additional safety for circular saws
WARNINGS. Before connecting a tool to a power source
(mains switch power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be
sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified
on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a
voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result
in serious injury to the user, and damage to the tool. If in
doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with
a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the
motor.
• Do not allow anyone under the age of 18 years to
operate this saw
• Ensure all supports and power cables are completely
clear of the cutting path
• Be aware that the blade will project from the underside
of the workpiece
• Do not reach beneath the workpiece where the guard
cannot protect you from the blade
• Do not attempt to cut material thicker than detailed in
the Specifications section of this manual
• Ensure that work is correctly supported. Large panels
may sag under their own weight and bind the saw
blade. Supports must be placed under the panel on
both sides, close to the line of cut and near the edge of
the panel
• Do not apply any sideways or twisting force to the
blade whilst cutting
• Do not move the saw backwards at any time whilst
cutting
• If a cut does not extend to the edge of the workpiece,
or if the blade binds in the cut, allow the blade to come
to a complete stop and lift the saw out of the workpiece
