Panasonic EY47A1 Instructions D'utilisation page 10

Protective equipment such as dust
EN
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the off-po-
sition before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack,
picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or
wrench before turning the power
tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair and clothing away from
moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles.
A careless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of a second.
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 danger-
ous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the
power source and/or remove the
battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accesso-
ries, 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 and acces-
sories. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before
use.
Many accidents 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 condi-
tions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping
surfaces dry, clean and free from
oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe
handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
