English
many hours of use of the machine could cause the
¨white finger syndrome¨ also known as Raynaud
phenomenon. This causes a reduction in the tact of
the fingers and their capacity to regulate temperature
generating a lack of sensibility. This sickness could
in extreme cases cause problems with the nerve
endings.
The exposure to the vibrations is the cause of
the white finger syndrome. To minimise this
effect as much as possible, follow the following
recommendations:
• Always use gloves.
• Always have your hands warm.
• Take frequent breaks.
• Always hold the machine tightly by the handles.
If you detect any of the symptoms of the white finger
syndrome, consult immediately with your doctor.
2.3. SECURITY IN THE WORKING AREA
Make sure that all electrical conductors are
protected against water. Those elements not
protected could cause a short circuit of the system
and could cause an electric shock to the end user.
Maintain the work area clean and work with good
illumination. Work areas that are not tidy and/or dark
could cause accidents.
Do not use this machine in explosive atmospheres,
for example, inflammable liquids, gases and dust or
even smoke.
Maintain children and onlookers well clear of the
work area when using the machine. Distractions
can cause loss of control. Make sure that children,
onlookers and animals are not in the work area.
Do not use the machine when other people are in the
work area and not protected by boots, goggles and
homologated protective clothing.
2.4. ELECTRIC SECURITY
Do not touch the electric mains and cables with wet
hands.
Connect this machine only to alternate current
230V/50 Hz.
The electric plug of this machine must coincide
with the electric mains. Do not modify in any way
the electric plug. Electric plugs not modified and that
coincide with the electric mains would reduce the risk
of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as
tubes, radiators, electric kitchens and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if in
contact with earthed products.
Do not expose this machine to rain or humid
conditions. The water that could enter the machine
could increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not overstretch the cable. Do not use the cable
to transport the machine, to lift the machine or to
remove from the electric mains. Maintain the cable
far away from heat sources, oil, sharp edges or
pieces in movement. Damaged cables or twisted
cables increase the risk of electric shock.
Never use the machine with a damaged cable or
with the electric mains damaged. Before connecting
the machine, check the plug and the cables for
damages. If you discover any damages take
your machine to your nearest after sales service
for repair. If the cable is damaged or broken,
disconnect the machine immediately. Damaged
