Global Machinery Company R1200 - Manual (Page 6)

• Do not touch the bit immediately after operation. It
may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
• Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never be
left around the work area.
• Use safety equipment including safety goggles or shield,
ear protection, dust mask and protective clothing
including safety gloves.
WARNING. Before connecting a tool to a power source
(power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the
voltage supply is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage
greater than that specified for the tool can result in
serious injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool.
If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source
with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful
to the motor.
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual will
be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the
manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury
resulting from such cases of misuse.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any changes
made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from such
changes.
Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not possible
to eliminate all residual risk factors. The following hazards
may arise in connection with the tool’s construction and
design:
• Damage to hearing if effective earmuffs are not worn.
• Harmful emissions of wood dust when the machine is
used in closed rooms. Always use supplementary dust
extraction.
• Always remove the plug from the mains socket before
making any adjustments or maintenance, including
changing the bit.
• Contact with the bit.
• Reaching into the housing whilst the tool is running
and making contact with the bit.
• Kickback of workpiece and parts of workpiece.
• Bit fracture.
• Catapulting of faulty pieces from the bit.
• Do not use bits that are deformed or cracked.
• Always remove the plug from the mains socket before
making any adjustments or maintenance, including
changing the bit and setting the depth of cut.
