Hazards caused by entanglement
■ Hazards caused by entanglement can result in suffocation,
scalping and/or cut wounds if loose clothing, personal jewellery,
necklaces, hair or gloves are not kept away from the machine
and its accessories.
■ Gloves can get caught in the rotating drive, which can lead to
injuries or fractures of the fingers.
■ Rubber or metal-reinforced gloves can become entangled easily
in rotating drive fittings and extensions.
■ Never wear loose-fitting gloves or gloves with cut-off or worn-out
glove fingers.
■ Never hold onto the drive, the fitting or the drive extension.
■ Keep your hands away from the rotating drive.
■ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep
hair, clothing and gloves away from the compressed air tool and
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts. There is a risk of personal injury.
Hazards during operation
■ When using the machine, the operator’s hands may be exposed
to risks such as crushing, striking, cutting, abrasion and heat.
Wear suitable gloves to protect your hands.
■ The operator and maintenance personnel must be physically
capable of handling the size, weight and power of the machine.
■ Hold the machine correctly: be ready to counteract any normal or
sudden movements – keep both hands ready.
■ Ensure that your body is balanced and that you have stable footing.
■ Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
■ Prevent unintentional starting. If the air supply is interrupted,
switch off the compressed air tool using the On/Off switch.
