Work Area & Tool Set Up - Greenlee ES20LXR Manual De Instrucciones

Work Area & Tool Set Up
• Confirm proper operation before and after each
use to reduce the risk of injury.
• Set up the tool and work area according to
these procedures to reduce the risk of injury.
• Do not modify tool. Modifying the tool in any
manner may result in personal injury and voidance
of the tool's warranty. A head that has been welded,
ground, drilled or modified in any manner can break
during use. To reduce risk of injury, replace the
whole damaged head never individual components.
Discard damaged heads using proper disposal
methods.
1. Always wear appropriate PPE to reduce the risk of
injury.
2. Confirm work area safety (Inspect the job site
in accordance with OSHA and Employer work
specification requirements and see General Power
Tool Safety Warnings). Operate in a clear, level,
stable and dry location.
3. Confirm the circuit is de-energized or properly
grounded. Follow all workplace procedures for
control of hazardous energy to prevent unintended
activation while working. Always handle the line as
though it is energized. Cutting live cables can result
in arc flash, electrocution, or death.
4. Inspect cable to confirm that the cable can be cut
by this tool, cutting the wrong type of cable can
damage the tool or cause personal injury. (See,
Specifications).
5. Make sure the work site is easily recognizable to
outside observers to prevent people from coming
into the area while the tool is being used. Barriers or
cones around work site are some of the ways to do
this.
6. For remote use, identify the appropriate hot stick for
the operation and inspect per industry guidelines.
7. Make sure all other equipment has been properly
inspected.
