14 Maintain your tools with care. For better and safer work, keep cutting tools sharp and
clean. Follow the instructions for lubrication and changing tools. Regularly inspect the elec-
tric tool's connection cable, and if it is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized expert.
Regularly check extension cords, and replace them if they are damaged. Keep the handles
dry, clean and free of oil and grease.
15 Pull the plug from the socket. When not using the electric tool, before maintenance or
when changing tools, such as saw blades, drills and cutting bits.
16 Do not leave any tool keys inserted. Before switching on, check to see that keys and ad-
justment tools have been removed.
17 Avoid unintentional activation. When plugging the tool in, make sure that the switch is
turned off.
18 Use outdoor extension cords. When outdoors, use only extension cords that are approved
and appropriately marked.
19 Be alert. Pay attention to what you do. Approach your work sensibly. Do not use the electric
tool when you are distracted.
20 Check the electric tool for damage. Before using the electric tool, you must inspect safety
equipment or slightly damaged parts carefully to ensure that they work properly and as in-
tended. Check to see that the moving parts operate freely and don't stick, and to make sure
no parts are damaged. All parts must be mounted properly and meet all the conditions for
ensuring trouble-free operation of the electric tool.
Damaged safety equipment and parts must be properly repaired or replaced by a profes-
sional facility, unless otherwise indicated in the user manual. Damaged switches must be
replaced by a customer service facility.
Never use an electric tool whose switch cannot be turned on and off.
21 Caution. Using other insertion tools and accessories may cause injury.
22 Have your tool repaired by an electrical expert. This electric tool meets applicable safety
requirements. Repairs must be made only by an electrical expert using original replacement
parts. Otherwise accidents many occur.
1.3 Special safety instructions
•
Observe the operating instructions for the diamond coring machine used.
• Avoid restriction or blocking of the hose, e.g. pinching, kinking or entry of dirt.
• Keep the ventilation slots on the pump clean and unobstructed. Ensure adequate free space
at the air exit in order to avoid overheating of the appliance.
• Never allow the pump to stand in water.
• The pump should stand on a dry horizontal surface when in operation and should be se-
cured to prevent possible movement.
• The vacuum will be maintained for a short time after failure of the electric supply or malfunc-
tion of the appliance. Should this occur, stop working immediately and check the pressure
gauges on the pump and vacuum base plate. Secure the workpieces to prevent falling.
•
Do not modify the appliance or tamper with its parts.
• Use only genuine spare parts.
• Empty the water separator each time before transporting the pump.
• Ensure that the workplace is well lit.
• Check that the mains voltage is the same as the voltage rating stated in the CE plate.
•
Learn how to stop the vacuum pump suddenly and how to use all controls.
• Before any intervention, empty the pressure tank and disconnect the power supply, to pre-
vent any sudden unexpected re-start of the appliance.
• After any maintenance operation, make sure all components have been fitted correctly.
• Keep children and animals away from the working area, so as to avoid any injury caused by
devices connected to the vacuum pump.
• Carefully read the instructions of any tool you have installed.
