▶ Wear eye protection. Flying fragments present a risk of injury to the body
and eyes.
▶ Before beginning the work, check the hazard classification of the dust
that will be produced. Use an industrial vacuum cleaner with an officially
approved protection classification in compliance with locally applicable
dust protection regulations.
▶ Use a dust removal system and suitable vacuum cleaner whenever
possible. Dust from materials, such as paint containing lead, some
wood species, concrete/masonry/stone containing silica, and minerals as
well as metal, may be harmful.
▶ Make sure that the workplace is well ventilated and, where necessary,
wear a respirator appropriate for the type of dust generated. Contact with
or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory
or other diseases to the operator or bystanders. Certain kinds of dust
are classified as carcinogenic such as oak and beech dust, especially
in conjunction with additives for wood conditioning (chromate, wood
preservative). Material containing asbestos may be handled only by
specialists.
▶ Take breaks between working and do physical exercises to improve the
blood circulation in your fingers. Exposure to vibration during long periods
of work can lead to disorders of the blood vessels and nervous system in
the fingers, hands and wrists.
Electrical safety
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric
cables or gas and water pipes. External metal parts of the power tool may
become live, presenting a risk of electric shock, if you damage an electric
cable accidentally.
Careful handling and use of power tools
▶ Switch the power tool off if the accessory tool sticks and stalls. The power
tool may be deflected laterally.
▶ Wait until the power tool stops completely before you lay it down.
