Electrical Safety; Personal Safety - ATIKA WS 225 Notice Originale

2. Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension
cord suitable for out-door use. Use of a cord suitable for
out-door use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoid-
able, use a residual current device (RCD) protected sup-
ply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power
tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while oper-
ating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust 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-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Car-
rying 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 be-fore 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 unex-
pected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves 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 extrac-
tion and collection facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.
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 dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, changing accessories, 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. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool
aged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many ac-
cidents 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 conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those in-
tended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-
son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-
sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety notes on sanding with abrasive paper
a) This power tool is to be used as abrasive paper sander.
Follow all warnings, instructions, illustrations and data
you have received with the device. Electrical shock, fire
and/or serious injuries may occur when not observing the
following instructions.
b) This power tool is not suitable for working with wire
brushes, polishing, or abrasive cutting. Uses for which
the power tool is not intended may cause hazards and inju-
ries.
c) Do not use any accessories not specifically provided
and recommended by the manufacturer for this power
tool. Just being able to attach the accessories for your
power tool does not guarantee it's safe use.
d) The permissible rotational speed of the accessory must
be at least as high as the maximum speed specified on
the power tool. Accessories rotating faster than permitted
may break and fling about.
e) The outside diameters and thickness of the implement
must correspond to the dimensions of your power tool.
Incorrectly dimensioned implements cannot be sufficiently
shielded or controlled.
f) Implements with threaded insert must fit exactly on the
thread of the grinding spindle. For implements mounted
via a flange the hole diameter of the implement must
match the receiving diameter of the flange. Implements
not fastened accurately on the power tool turn irregularly,
vibrate strongly and may cause the loss of control.
