WARNING: User exposure to tool vibration can result in loss of sense of
touch, numbness, tingling and reduced ability to grip. Long term exposure
can lead to a chronic condition. If necessary limit the length of time
exposed to vibration. Use the figures provided in the specification relating
to vibration if provided to calculate the duration and frequency of operating
the tool. The 2002/44/EC directive relating to vibration in the workplace
may provide useful information even for domestic use of tools. In the first
instance of feeling uncomfortable due to vibration STOP using the tool
immediately.
WARNING: Always wear ear protection where the sound level exceeds
85dB(A) and limit the time of exposure if necessary. If sound levels are
uncomfortable even with ear protection stop using the tool immediately and
check the ear protection is correctly fitted and provides the right level of
sound attenuation for the level of sound produced by your tool.
3) Tool use and care
a) Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
tool's operation. If damaged, have the tool repaired before use.

b) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the tool for operations different from
those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
4) Service

identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the tool
is maintained.
Hoist Support Arm Safety
• Ensure use of personal protective equipment (PPE) when installing/
operating this device. Wear a hard hat and protective gloves at all times.
• Before installation, ensure the mounting facility fits the requirements for
the support arm. Assess whether the fitting is the correct dimensions,
height, and position for lifting loads, and no obstructions will interfere
with the hoist's path when operational.
• Frequently check all fastening components, the components of this
support arm will be under large amounts of strain. Assemble using all
mounting components, do not omit any components during assembly.
• Do not assemble alone. The support arm is heavy and may require
being configured at a height, always seek help when installing/
setting-up.
• Ensure compatibility and secure fitment with the hoist. Corresponding
load capacities are detailed within the instruction manual and need to
be adhered to.
• When selecting a mounting pole, check the pole is capable of
supporting the load of the hoist when under full load. A secure mounting
base is required, seek security in a firm mounting base of concrete with
gusset supports if possible.
• Never lift people or animals using the hoist. When operating the hoist
always keep bystanders, and animals away from the load.
