Additional Safety Rules - Ryobi FVM51 Manuel D'utilisation

SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR WIRE
BRUSHING OPERATIONS:
 Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush
even during ordinary operation. Do not overstress the
wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire
bristles can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
 Allow brushes to run at operating speed for at least
one minute before using them. During this time no
one is to stand in front or in line with the brush. Loose
bristles or wires will be discharged during the run-in time.
 Direct the discharge of the spinning wire brush away
from you. Small particles and tiny wire fragments may be
discharged at high velocity during the use of these brushes
and may become imbedded in your skin.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

 WARNING - Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other common rotary
tool activities contains chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust
masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
 Always use proper guard with grinding wheel. A guard
protects operator from broken wheel fragments.
 Know your power tool. Read operator's manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well
as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious injury.
 Always wear eye protection with side shields marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
 Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the
operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
 Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during
extended periods of operation. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
 This product is not intended for use with pet grooming,
dental work, or any human or veterinarian medical
applications.
 Keep pets away while operating this tool.
 Check damaged parts. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should
be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
ROTARY TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
properly and perform its intended function. Check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced
by an authorized service center. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of shock, fire, or serious injury.
 Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before
using this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
 Do not grind or sand heat flammable materials. Sparks
from the wheel could ignite these materials.
 This product is not intended for use as a dental drill or
in human or veterinary medical applications. Serious
injury may result.
 When using steel screws, cut-off wheels, high speed
cutters, or tungsten carbide cutters, always have
the work securely clamped. Never attempt to hold
the work with one hand while using any of these
accessories.
 Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in
operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards
when not using your battery tool or when changing
accessories. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
 Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire
or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly
injury.
 Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped
or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject
to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
 Batteries can explode in the presence of a source
of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, never use any cordless product
in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can
propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water
immediately.
 Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact
with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water.
If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean
water for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate
medical attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
 For organic material, a flex shaft accessory is
required. Proper cleaning and sanitizing is required
after use. Any material including organic material cut or
altered by this tool is not intended nor suitable for human
consumption.
