2. Informacione të Përgjithshme të Sigurisë

Ndiqni gjithmonë masat themelore të sigurisë për të zvogëluar rrezikun e zjarrit, goditjes elektrike dhe lëndimeve personale. Mbajeni këtë manual afër për referencë të shpejtë.

2.1. Siguria e zonës së punës

• Mbajeni zonën e punës të pastër dhe të ndriçuar mirë. Zonat e rrëmujshme ose të errëta shkaktojnë aksidente.
• Mos përdorni veglat elektrike në atmosfera shpërthyese, si p.sh. në prani të lëngjeve, gazeve ose pluhurit të ndezshëm. Mjetet elektrike krijojnë shkëndija të cilat mund të ndezin pluhurin ose tymrat.
• Mbani larg fëmijët dhe kalimtarët kur përdorni një vegël elektrike. Shpërqëndrimet mund t'ju bëjnë të humbni kontrollin.

2.2. Siguria elektrike

• Spinat e veglave elektrike duhet të përputhen me prizën. Asnjëherë mos e modifikoni spinën në asnjë mënyrë.
• Shmangni kontaktin e trupit me sipërfaqet e tokëzuara ose të tokëzuara, të tilla si tubat, radiatorët, raftet dhe frigoriferët. Ekziston një rrezik i shtuar i goditjes elektrike nëse trupi juaj është i tokëzuar ose i tokëzuar.
• Mos i ekspozoni mjetet elektrike ndaj shiut ose kushteve të lagështa. Hyrja e ujit në një vegël elektrike do të rrisë rrezikun e goditjes elektrike.
• Mos abuzoni me kordonin. Asnjëherë mos e përdorni kordonin për të mbajtur, tërhequr ose shkëputur veglën elektrike nga priza. Mbajeni kordonin larg nxehtësisë, vajit, skajeve të mprehta ose pjesëve të lëvizshme.
• The Livetool Indicator™ light will illuminate when the tool is connected to power, indicating it is live. This helps prevent accidental startup.

2.3. Siguria Personale

• Always wear eye protection. Use safety glasses with side shields or goggles.
• Vishni mbrojtëse për dëgjimin kur përdorni mjetin për periudha të gjata.
• Vishuni siç duhet. Mos vishni rroba të gjera ose bizhuteri. Mbani flokët, veshjet dhe dorezat larg pjesëve të lëvizshme.
• Qëndroni vigjilent, shikoni se çfarë po bëni dhe përdorni sensin e përbashkët kur përdorni një vegël elektrike.
• Use safety equipment such as dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hats, or hearing protection for appropriate conditions.
• Ensure the large blade guard is always in place and functioning correctly to protect against debris.
