fied person.

dures must be understood and followed when per-
forming operation, inspection and maintenance of this

• Do not perform any operation, inspection or mainte-
nance of this machine when under the influence of al-

Wear safe clothing and protective gear
• Do not wear loose clothing or any accessory that can
catch on the controls or the moving parts of the ma-
chine.
• Do not wear clothing stained with oil or grease that can
easily catch fire.
• Wear protective gear such as helmet, safety shoes,
protective goggles, respirator, gloves and earmuffs,
as appropriate, depending on the work involved. Es-
pecially make sure to wear protective eye-wear and
mask when working with a grinding/polishing/sanding
machine, hammer or compressed air, as metal frag-
ments or other objects could scatter in such an envi-
ronment.
• Wear hearing protectors when operating the machine.
Loud and prolonged noise can damage or destroy
your hearing.
Install an extinguisher and a first aid kit
• Install an extinguisher to fight a fire, and learn how to
use it.
• Prepare a first aid kit and keep it at a designated
place.
• Decide on the procedures to be used in case of fire or
other hazards.
• Decide on and take note of the contact(s) in case of
emergency.
Place a “Do not operate” alert sign
Serious injury or death may result if an unauthorized per-
son starts the engine or touches the controls during in-
spection or maintenance.
• Before performing maintenance, stop the engine, re-
move the key and store it in a safe place.
• Prominently display a “Do not operate” alert sign on
places such as the starter switch and the control lever.
Place another sign outside of the machine as neces-
sary.
Use the correct tools
Do not use damaged or weakened tools or tools de-
signed for other purposes. Use only the correct tools for
the work involved.
