1 Safety Notes
1.1 Intended use
The ROPULS with its respective components may be operated by qualified technicians, in
accordance with the following instructions. No other application is permissible.
All measuring is based on the relevant German standards and guidelines.
1.2 General safety instructions
ATTENTION! When using electric tools, the following fundamental safety measures
must be taken to prevent electric shock, injury or fire.
Read all of these instructions before you use the electric tool, and store the safety
instructions properly.
Service and maintenance:
1 Regular cleaning, maintenance and lubrication. Always pull the electrical plug before any
adjustment, maintenance or repair.
2 Have your device repaired only by qualified experts and only with original
replacement parts. This ensures the continued safety of the device.
Working safely:
1 Keep your work area orderly. A messy work area can cause accidents.
2 Consider environmental influences. Do not expose electric tools to rain. Do not use
electric tools in damp or wet environments. Keep the work area well lit. 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 (such as
pipes, radiators, electric stoves or cooling devices).
4 Keep other people away. Do not let other people — especially children — touch the
electric tool or its cable. Keep them clear of the work area.
5 Store electric tools safely when they are not in use. Unused electric tools should be kept
in a dry, high or closed area, out of reach of children.
6 Do not overload your electric tool. Work is better and safer within the performance range
indicated.
7 Use the right electric tool. Don't use low-performance machines for heavy-duty jobs. Do
not use the electric tool for purposes for which it was not intended. For example, do not use
a portable circular saw for cutting tree branches or logs.
8 Wear proper clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, as they can get caught in
moving parts. When working outdoors, wear slip-resistant shoes. Wear a hairnet over long
hair.
9 Use protective gear. Wear safety glasses. Wear a breathing mask during work that creates
dust.
10 Connect the dust extraction equipment. If there are connections to dust extraction and
collection equipment, make sure that they are connected and properly used.
11 Do not use the cable for purposes for which it was not intended. Never use the cable to
pull the plug from the socket. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
