► Avoid eating, drinking, and using tobacco products
in areas where there is dust or fumes.
► Wash your hands and face thoroughly as soon as
possible upon leaving the exposure area, and
always before eating, drinking, using tobacco
products, or making contact with other persons.
► Comply with all applicable laws and regulations,
including occupational health and safety
regulations.
► Participate in air monitoring, medical examination
programs, and health and safety training programs
provided by your employer or trade organizations
and in accordance with occupational health and
safety regulations and recommendations. Consult
with physicians experienced in relevant
occupational medicine.
► Work with your employer and trade organization
to reduce dust and fume exposure at the worksite
and to reduce the risks. Effective health and safety
programs, policies and procedures for protecting
workers and others against harmful exposure to
dust and fumes must be established and
implemented based on advice from health and
safety experts. Consult with experts.
DANGER Exhaust gas hazard
The exhaust gas from the machine’s combustion
engine contains carbon monoxide which is
poisonous, and chemicals known to the State of
California and other authorities to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm. Inhalation of
exhaust fumes can cause serious injury, illness, or
death.
► Never inhale exhaust fumes.
► Ensure good ventilation (extraction of air by fan if
necessary).
WARNING Projectiles
Failure of the work piece, of accessories, or even of
the machine itself may generate high velocity
projectiles. During operating, splinters or other
particles from the compacted material may become
projectiles and cause personal injury by striking the
operator or other persons. To reduce these risk:
► Use approved personal protective equipment and
safety helmet, including impact resistant eye
protection with side protection.
► Make sure that no unauthorised persons trespass
into the working zone.
► Keep the workplace free from foreign objects.
WARNING Slope hazards
During operation, secure the machine so it can not
fall if it is placed on a sloping ground. A fall can lead
to severe accidents and result in personal injury.
► Always ensure that all personnel in the working
area are higher up the slope than the machine.
► Always operate the machine straight up and down
when placed on slopes.
► Never exceed the maximum recommended slope
angle when operating the machine. Follow the
recommendations.
WARNING Motion hazards
When using the machine to perform work-related
activities, you may experience discomfort in the
hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of the
body.
► Adopt a comfortable posture while maintaining
secure footing and avoiding awkward off-balanced
postures.
► Changing posture during extended tasks may help
avoid discomfort and fatigue.
► In case of persistent or recurring symptoms,
consult a qualified health professional.
