Do not use the tool for purposes other than those intended by Cembre.
The operator should concentrate on the work being performed and be careful to maintain balanced
working position.
Work in a clean, uncluttered area. Keep persons away from immediate work area.
Inspect the blades before each use. Do not use damaged blades.
Damaged blades can break and cause injury or damage to the tool.
Before each use, verify the integrity of the tool; replace any worn, possibly damaged or missing
parts with original Cembre spares.
Wear eye protection. Metal chips can fly from blades when cutting.
Pay attention when cutting short, free pieces of steel rod or rope as they may fly off dangerously,
causing injury to the operator or persons nearby.
Do not cut live cables or conductors.
The tool is unsuitable for continuous use and should be allowed to cool down following uninter
rupted, successive cutting operations; for instance, having exhausted a fully charged battery in
one session, delay battery replacement for a few minutes.
Protect the tool from rain and moisture. Water will damage the tool and battery. Electro-hydraulic
tools should not be operated in pouring rain.
