Workplace and danger areas
Allow enough room for manoeuvre to ensure danger-free working.
Make sure you have sufficient lighting at your workplace.
Clearly cordon off the danger area so that no person can enter the danger
area during sawing.
The front, underneath and rear of the sawing area must be protected so
that persons or equipment cannot be harmed by falling parts or sawing
sludge, or by the protruding cutting tool.
Secure lumps of concrete that have been loosened against falling.
Breathing in the water fog that is created is a health hazard. Ensure
adequate ventilation in sealed-off areas.
The sludge resulting from cutting is very greasy. Remove this or ensure
that you or other people do not slip on it.
