1.1 Intended use
1.2 General safety instructions
Weinig tools are designed and built exclusively for use in Weinig planers and moulders.
All further uses are deemed to be non-conforming.
Unprofessional and non-conforming use of the tools can impair the operator's safety
and is therefore prohibited. Note the national regulations (EU Directives).
Note the brochure "Safety". It contains further instructions concerning the intended use
and safe operation.
Weinig cannot accept any liability for damage and losses due to non-conforming use of
the tools. The risk of accidents, damage or losses is borne exclusively by the user in
such cases.
The instructions and rules contained in the operating manual must therefore be noted
without fail. All local safety and accident prevention regulations must also be observed.
Weinig cannot accept any liability for personal injury or property damage due to
misconduct or non-compliance with these safety instructions.
Tools have sharp cutting edges which can also cause injury even when at rest. For this
reason, handle tools with care and wear protective gloves.
Always work away from the tool cutting edge, never towards the cutting edge, when
undoing clamping screws.
Always wear protective gloves and proceed with utmost care when packing or
unpacking tools and when handling them (e.g. fitting them in the machine).
Tools must be transported in a suitable packaging or fixture and stored in a safe place
(e.g. in a tool cabinet).
