GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

1. Keep the work area tidy.

• Clutter in the work area can lead to accidents.

2. Take environmental influences into account.

• Do not expose electric tools to rain.

• Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet environment.

• Make sure that the work area is well-illuminated.

• Do not use electric tools where there is a risk of fire or explosion.

3. Protect yourself from electric shock.

• Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g. pipes, radiators, electric

ranges, cooling units).

4. Keep other persons away.

• Do not let persons, especially children, not involved in the work touch

the tool or the extension cord and keep them away from the work area.

5. Securely store unused electric tools.

• Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry, elevated or closed

location out of the reach of children.

6. Do not overload your electric tool.

• They work better and more safely in the specified output range.

7. Use the correct electric tool.

• Do not use low-output electric tools for heavy work.

• Do not use the electric tool for purposes for which it is not intended. For

example, do not use handheld circular saws for the cutting of branches

or logs.

8. Wear suitable clothing.

• Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which can become entangled

in moving parts.

• When working outdoors, anti-slip footwear is recommended.

WARNING: READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN

ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE AND/OR SERIOUS INJURY.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

• Tie long hair back in a hair net.

9. Use protective equipment.

• Wear protective goggles.

• Wear a mask when carrying out dust-creating work.

10. Connect the dust extraction device if you will be processing wood,

materials similar to wood, or plastics.

• If connections for dust extraction and a collecting device are present,

make sure that they are connected and used properly.

• When processing wood, materials similar to wood, and plastics.

Operation in enclosed spaces is only permitted with the use of a suitable

extraction system.

11. Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not intended.

• Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the outlet. Protect the cable

from heat, oil and sharp edges.

12. Secure the workpiece.

• Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the workpiece in place. In

this manner, it is held more securely than with your hand.

• An additional support is necessary for long workpieces (table, trestle,

etc.) in order to prevent the machine from tipping over.

• Always press the workpiece firmly against the working plate and stop in

order to prevent bouncing and twisting of the workpiece.

13. Avoid abnormal posture.

• Make sure that you have secure footing and always maintain your

balance.

• Avoid awkward hand positions in which a sudden slip could cause one

or both hands to come into contact with the cutter bit.

14. Take care of your tools.

• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean in order to be able to work better

and more safely.

• Follow the instructions for lubrication and for tool replacement.

• Check the connection cable of the electric tool regularly and have it

replaced by a recognised specialist when damaged.

• Check extension cables regularly and replace them when damaged.

• Keep the handle dry, clean and free of oil and grease.

15. Pull the plug out of the outlet.

• Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed wood pieces from the

running cutter bit.

• When the cutter bit is blocked due to abnormal feed force during

cutting, turn the machine off. Remove the work piece and ensure that

the cutter bit runs freely. Turn the machine on and start a new cutting

operation with less feed force.

16. Do not leave tools inserted in the machine.

• Before switching on, make sure that adjusting tools are removed.

17. Avoid inadvertent starting.

• Make sure that the switch is switched off when plugging the plug into an

outlet.

18. Stay Alert.

• Pay attention to what you are doing. Remain sensible when working. Do

not use the electric tool when you are distracted or tired.

19. Check the electric tool for potential damage.

• Protective devices and other parts must be carefully inspected to

ensure that they are faultfree and function as intended prior to

continued use of the electric tool.

• Check whether the moving parts function faultlessly and do not jam or

whether parts are damaged. All parts must be correctly mounted and

all conditions must be fulfilled to ensure faultfree operation of the

electric tool.

• The moving protective hood may not be fixed in the open position.

• Damaged protective devices and parts must be properly repaired or

replaced.

• Do not use any faulty or damaged connection cables.

• Do not use any electric tool on which the switch cannot be switched on

and off.

20. ATTENTION!

• The use of other tools or accessories than recommended items can

have a risk of injury.

21. Have your electric tool repaired by a qualified electrician.

• This electric tool conforms to the applicable safety regulations. Repairs

may only be performed by an electrician using original spare parts.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Check that the cutters are in perfect condition before use.

2. Use table insert rings appropriate for the size of the cutters.

3. Always wear suitable personal protective equipment. This includes:

• Hearing protection to avoid the risk of becoming hearing impaired.

• Respiratory protection to avoid the risk of inhaling harmful dust.

4. There is the possibility of injury when handling the cutters and rough

materials due to sharp edges. Wear safety goggles to avoid eye injuries

due to ejected parts.

5. When working with wood, the operator must be informed of the conditions

that affect the release of dust, e.g. the type of material to be processed,

the significance of local separation (collection or source) and the correct

setting of the hood/guide plates/guides.

6. Support long workpieces sufficiently to hold their position.

7. Possible rebound, a sudden reaction due to the guide for a small

workpiece being out of control.

8. Use additional equipment, such as horizontal pressure devices, when

processing narrow workpieces.

9. Tools that have not been maintained can trigger uncontrollable situations.

Only use sharp, maintained milling tools in accordance with the tool

manufacturer’s specifications.

10. Before changing cutters or making adjustments, switch off the machine

and unplug the power plug.

11. Select a rotational speed that is suitable for the milling tool and material

used.
