General Safety Instructions For Handling Power Tools; Instructions - Meister MES480-1 Traduction Du Manuel D'utilisation Original

Just because you can affix an accessory
to your electrical tool, there is no guar-
antee it is safe to use.
The permitted revolutions of the tool
insert must be at least as high as the
highest value specified on the electrical
tool. Accessories that turn faster than is
permitted may break and fly away.
The external diameter and thickness
of the tool insert must match the dimen-
sions of your electrical tool. Incorrectly
measured tool inserts cannot be proper-
ly protected or checked.
There is a risk of injury. The user of the
device is liable for all property and per-
sonal damages occurring as the result
of incorrect use.
If other components or non-original
components are used with the machine,
the manufacturer guarantee is voided.
Remaining risks:
The operating instructions for this elec-
trical tool contain comprehensive tips
for the safe handling of electrical tools.
However, every electrical tool has a cer-
tain level of remaining risks which can-
not be excluded by the protective mech-
anisms on the device. Always operate
electrical tools with the necessary care.
Remaining risks may be, for
example:
• Touching rotating parts or tools.
• Injury caused by flying tools or tool
parts.
• Risk of fire with insufficient ventilation
of the motor.

• Adverse effects on the hearing
caused by working without ear
defenders.
The ability to work safely is dependant
on the familiarity of the operator when it
comes to handling the given electrical
tool. Appropriate knowledge of the
machinery and careful behaviour when
working help to minimise the remaining
risks.
