Power Tool Use And Care; Service; Additional Safety Instructions For Band Saws - Parkside 390483 2201 Translation Of The Original Instructions

4. Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits,
etc., in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
PMB 1100 B2

5. Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replace-
ment parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.

band saws
■ Hold the appliance by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing
work where the cutting tool may come
into contact with hidden cables or its
connecting cable. If the cutting tool comes into
contact with a live wire, this may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool live and could
give the operator an electric shock.
■ Keep your hands out of the sawing area and
away from the saw blade.
■ Always make sure that the portable band saw is
clean before use.
■ Always stop working immediately if you notice
anything unusual.
■ Before using the tool, always ensure that all
components are properly and safely assem-
bled.

the band saw blade.

path of the band saw blade.
