Personal Safety - Clas Ohlson M1E-7.2LD-170M/G-1 Bedienungsanleitung

3) Personal safety

a) Pay attention to what you are doing and use common sense when using power tools.
Never use power tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. One moment of inattention while using a power tool may result in serious injury.
b) Wear protective clothing. Always wear safety glasses. Using protective clothing such as
dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, helmets and ear defenders reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid accidental starts. Make sure that the power switch is set to OFF before plugging
the power tool into a wall socket, fitting the battery or picking up/carrying the power
tool. Never carry a power tool with your finger on the trigger and never connect the power
tool to a wall socket when the switch is set to ON, since it may result in injury.
d) Remove all service tools/keys before switching on the power tool. A service tool left on
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) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. Keep hair,
clothes and gloves away from moving parts. Loose-fitting clothes, jewellery or long hair
could become caught in moving parts.
g) If equipment for the extraction and collection of dust is available, make sure it is
connected and used properly. The use of such equipment can significantly reduce dust-
related hazards.
4) Use and maintenance of the power tool
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 if used at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Never use the power tool if the power switch does not switch the tool on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled by the power switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Unplug the lead from the wall socket before making any adjustments, changing accessories
or storing the power tool. These precautions reduce the risk of the power tool starting unexpectedly.
d) Store power tools that are not being used out of children's reach. Do not allow people
who are unfamiliar with the tool or its functions to operate it. Power tools can be dangerous
if they fall into the hands of inexperienced users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, broken parts
or anything else which might affect the operation of the power tool. If something is
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 and any accessories in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Using the power tool
for a purpose other than that for which it is intended could result in a dangerous situation.
