1. Safety

The basic condition for safely handling and a hassle-free operation of the product is the knowledge about the

fundamental safety guidelines and safety regulations. This instruction manual contains important information

on how to handle the tool safely. Everyone working with this equipment shall read and understand these

instructions. These instructions shall be read and implemented in accordance with the relevant standards,

workplace health and safety legislation, installation instructions, Codes of Practice and technical connection

guideline in force in your country.

1.1 General safety guidelines for tools

a) Read and make sure you understand all safety guidelines and instructions. Failure to follow the safety

guidelines and instructions can lead to electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

b) Keep these safety guidelines and instructions for future use.

2) Safety in the work area

a) Keep your work area clean and well lit. Working in cluttered or dark areas can easily lead to accidents.

Prevent the tool from unintentional movement or dropping and assume a secure foothold.

3) Personal safety

a) Stay alert! Watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a tool.

b) Use personal protective equipment and always wear eye protection. The use of protective equipment

such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat or hearing protection, depending on the tool and

its use will reduce personal injuries.

c) Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can get caught by moving parts.

4) Tool usage and care

a) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp and clean blades do not

get stuck as easily and are easier to handle during operation.

b) The blade is subject to wear. Store the rotational pipe peeler dry and clean in the transport suitcase.

c) Keep your tools clean. Follow the servicing instructions and the instructions for changing the tools. Keep

oil and grease away from the handles.

d) Care for your tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other

condition that may affect the operation of the tools. If damaged, have the tool repaired before use. Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

e) Use the tool, accessories etc. in accordance with these instructions. Take the working conditions and the

work to be performed into account. The use of the tool for applications differing from the application

scope could result in a hazardous situation.

f) The thickness of the peeling must be checked with a suitable measuring instrument on a regular basis.

5) Service

a) Have your tool repaired only by a qualified technician with identical replacement parts. This will ensure

that the safety of the tool is maintained.
