Metabo BSA 12-18 LED 2000 Notice Originale page 10

en ENGLISH
Special safety instructions for the magnets in
the base of BSA 12-18 LED 2000, BSA 18 LED
4000.
Danger! Swallowing, injuries, electric shock
Magnets are not toys! Ensure that the
magnets are kept out of the reach of
children.
0 -14
Magnets are made of metal and conduct
electrical current. Protect magnets from
contact with electrical current.
Warning! Crushing
Large magnets have a very high power of
attraction. If handled careless, you can
pinch your fingers or skin between two
magnets. This can cause crushing and bruising in
the affected areas.
• Wear thick protective gloves when handling
larger magnets.
Warning! Pacemakers
Magnets can affect the function of
pacemakers and implanted defibrillators. A
pacemaker can be switched to test mode
and cause discomfort. A defibrillator may stop
working.
• If you wear such devices, keep sufficient distance
from magnets (at least 1 metre).
• Warn other wearing such devices not to
approach magnets.
Warning! Heavy objects
Excessive or jerky loads, signs of fatigue as
well as material defects can cause a magnet
to detach from its adhesive base. Falling
objects may lead to serious personal injury and
material damage. The ideal adhesive force is only
achieve under ideal conditions.
• The magnet holding force depends on material
thickness and condition, if required from a rubber
cap.
• Do not use magnets in locations where persons
can get injured in the event of material failure.
• When attaching the magnet, check that the
holding force is sufficient. If required, secure the
lamp additionally with a rope against falling.
Warning! Metal splinters
Neodymium magnets are brittle. If 2
magnets collide, they can shatter. Splinters
with sharp edges can be ejected for meters
and injure your eyes.
Magnets attract metal chips, metal powder. This
can cause scratches on the surface when adhering
/ detaching. Avoid attaching magnets to sensitive
surfaces. If possible, use a rubber cap.
• Avoid collisions of magnets.
• Wear protective goggles when handling larger
magnets.
• Make sure that nearby persons are also
protected or keep their distance.
Caution! Magnetic field
10
Magnets generate a far-reaching, strong
magnetic field. Among other things, they
can damage televisions and laptops,
computer hard drives, credit cards and EC cards,
data carriers, mechanical watches, hearing aids
and loudspeakers.
• Keep magnets away from all devices and objects
that can be damaged by strong magnetic fields.
Caution! Air freight
Magnetic fields from improperly packaged
magnets can affect aircraft navigation
equipment. In the worst case, this can lead
to an accident.
• Refrain from using airfreight. Otherwise, only ship
magnets in packaging with sufficient magnetic
shielding by air freight in accordance with valid air
freight regulations.
Caution! Shipping by surface mail
Magnetic fields from improperly packaged
magnets can cause malfunctions in sorting
devices and damage sensitive goods in
other packages.
• Use a generously sized box and place the
magnets in the centre of the package using fill
material.
Note! Effect on humans
The magnetic field of a permanent magnet
is unlikely to pose as a health hazard, but it
cannot be completely ruled out.
• For your safety, avoid continuous contact with the
magnets.
• Keep large magnets at least 1 metre away from
your body.
Note! Oxidation, corrosion, rust, chipping
Magnets have a thin nickel-copper-nickel
coating to protect against corrosion. This
coating provides some protection against
corrosion, but is not resistant enough for continuous
outdoor use. Collision can cause the coating to
flake off and magnets can oxidise as a result.
• Only use magnets indoors or protect the magnets
from environmental influences.
• Avoid injuries to the coating, e.g. due to
collisions.
Note! Do not expose to fire. Maximum
permitted temperature 80°C (175 °F)
