Wear respiratory protection.
Use respiratory protection as instructed by your employer and as required by
occupational health and safety regulations.
Potentially generated or disturbed dust and fumes in the working environment or
from using the machine can cause ill health (e.g. cancer, birth defects, asthma
and/ or dermatitis).
• Carry out risk assessment regarding dust and fume hazards and implement
appropriate measures.
• Keep the working place clean.
• Keep in mind that working in certain materials may create dust and fumes
causing a potentially explosive atmosphere.
Remark: Some types of metal may have toxic coatings.
Please pay particular attention to avoid skin contact and breathing in, when
working with those materials. Ask your material supplier about special safety
instructions and stick to them.
Wear impact•resistant safety goggles – This refers to the operator, as well
as for the persons within the vicinity of the machine. Assess and determine
the grade of protection required depending on the individual case. The risks to
others should also be assessed at this time.
On overhead work, wear a safety helmet. If a work piece, accessories,
inserted tools, or the tool itself breaks, there is danger from high velocity
projectiles.
• Check all parts for damages before using the machine.
• Replace damaged parts immediately.
• When working on brittle material make sure that you are protected against
harmful splinters.
Use only machine tools, accessories and consumables, which are recommended by the
manufacturer. Make sure choosing the correct size and the correct type. Use only accessories,
which are in proper condition.
CAUTION – Injury due to carelessness!
If the machine is fixed to suspension equipment make sure that it is secure.
Never hang the machine onto the supply line.
• Separate the machine form any external energy source before changing the
machine tool or an accessory.
• Avoid direct contact with the machine tool during and after use as it can be hot
or sharp.
