2.3. WORKING AREA SECURITY
Do not use the machine in explosive atmospheres
or in the presence of inflammable liquids, gases
and powders. Electric machines can release sparks
that could ignite the inflammable liquids, gases and
powders.
The working area has a 15 metre radius around the
machine and should be considered a risk area were
nobody should enter whilst the machine is working
(security area). When necessary, use rope or signals to
mark the working area.
Maintain children, other people and animals well
clear of the machine whilst working. Distractions
can cause the loss of control. Be vigilant and stop any
children, other people and animals coming into the
working area.
Do not use this machine at night, with fog or with
reduced visibility that does not allow you to see the
working area.
When work must be carried out by two or more people
at the same time make sure you can control and
see the other people so as to maintain an adequate
working distance between users to guarantee security.
Maintain the workng area clean and work with good
light. Untidy working areas and dark conditions can
cause accidents.
Inspect the working area and remove all stones, wood,
cables and strange objects that could be touched and
propelled by the moving parts of the machine.
2.4. ELECTRICAL SECURITY
Connect this machine to alternate current 230v/50Hz.
The electrical switch of this machine must coincide
with the mains switch. Do not modify the switch in
any way. If no parts have been modified and they fit
perfectly, there will be no electric shock accidents.
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as
tubes, radiators, electric kitchens and refrigerators.
There is a higher electric shock possibility if your body
is earthed.
Do not expose this machine to rain and wet and
humid conditions. If water enters the machine there
will be a higher risk of electrc shock.
Do not touch cables and switches with wet hands.
Do not overstretch the cable. Do not use the cable
to transport the machine, lift the machine and to
unplug the machine. Maintain the cable far away
from heat sources, oil, sharp edges or other moving
parts. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk of
electric shock.
Never use this machine if the cable or the plug are
damaged. Before connecting the machine check
that the cable and the plug are not damaged. If you
discover that either of these elements are damaged,
take your machine to your nearest after sales
dealer. Should the cable be damaged, unplug the
machine inmediately. Damaged or tangled cables
increase the risk of electric shock.
Any work carried out on the cable and the plug must
be done by an authorised after sales dealer.
We recommend that the machine is connected a
residual differential current less than or equal to
30mA. You must check the differential prior to using
the machine.
