Safety Information - Scheppach FS3600 Translation Of Original Instruction Manual

The device may only be used in the intended manner.
Any use beyond this is improper. The user/operator, not
the manufacturer, is responsible for damages or inju-
ries of any type resulting from this.
Only cutting wheels that are suitable for the machine
may be used. The use of any type of saw blades is pro-
hibited.
An element of the intended use is also the observance
of the safety instructions, as well as the assembly in-
structions and operating information in the operating
manual.
Persons who operate and maintain the machine must
be familiar with the manual and must be informed about
potential dangers.
In addition, the applicable accident prevention regula-
tions must be strictly observed.
Other general occupational health and safety-related
rules and regulations must be observed.
The liability of the manufacturer and resulting damages
are excluded in the event of modifications of the ma-
chine.
Despite use as intended, specific risk factors cannot be
entirely eliminated. Due to the design and layout of the
machine, the following risks remain:
• Contact with the diamond cutting wheel in the un-
covered area.
• Use of an incorrect cutting wheel. The cutting wheel
included in the scope of delivery is exclusively per-
mitted for the machining of tiles.
• Reaching into the running diamond cutting wheel.
• Ejection of a faulty diamond attachment of the cut-
ting wheel
• Ejection of workpieces and workpiece parts.
• Hearing damage when the necessary hearing pro-
tection is not used.
The machine may only be operated with original parts
and original accessories from the manufacturer.
The safety, operating and maintenance specifications
of the manufacturer, as well as the dimensions speci-
fied in the technical data, must be observed.
Please observe that our equipment was not designed
with the intention of use for commercial or industrial
purposes. We assume no guarantee if the equipment
is used in commercial or industrial applications, or for
equivalent work.

5. Safety information

General power tool safety warnings
m WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this pow-
er tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operat-
ed (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
a. Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Clut-
tered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive at-
mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while op-
erating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapt-
er plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or ground-
ed surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
c.
ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
Do not use the cable for another purpose, for
d.
example, carrying or hanging the power tool
or pulling the plug out of the socket. Keep the
cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
device parts. Damaged or coiled cables increase
the risk of an electric shock.
