bien alignées, non voilées, ou toute autre condition qui pourrait entraver
leur bon fonctionnement. Toujours réparer ou remplacer les protections
ou les autres pièces endommagées avant d’utiliser l’outil.
18. TOUJOURS VÉRIFIER LE SENS DE ROTATION DE LA LAME AVANT
D’UTILISER L’OUTIL. Toujours avancer la pièce dans l’outil contre le
sens de rotation de la lame pour éviter tout risque de blessure.
19. NE JAMAIS S’ÉLOIGNER DE L’OUTIL QUAND IL FONCTIONNE. LE
METTRE HORS TENSION. Ne pas s’éloigner de l’outil tant qu’il n’est
pas complètement arrêté. Toujours mettre l’outil hors tension quand on
ne s’en sert pas. Toujours débrancher le cordon d’alimentation quand on
ne se sert pas de l’outil.

UTILISER LE CORDON DE RALLONGE APPROPRIÉ
Utiliser exclusivement un cordon de rallonge en bon état. Lorsqu’on utilise un cordon de rallonge, veiller à ce qu’il soit suffisamment lourd pour supporter
le courant dont l’appareil aura besoin. Un cordon trop petit provoquera une chute de la tension de ligne, ce qui entraînera une perte de puissance et une
surchauffe. Le tableau indique le calibre à utiliser en fonction de la longueur du cordon et de l’intensité nominale indiquée sur la plaque signalétique. En cas
de doute, utiliser un calibre supérieur. Plus le numéro du calibre est petit, plus le cordon est lourd.

AVERTISSEMENT :
Eviter tout risque de choc électrique. Ne jamais utiliser l’outil avec un cordon électrique ou un cordon de rallonge endommagé ou dénudé.
Inspecter régulièrement les cordons électriques. Ne jamais utiliser dans l’eau ou à proximité d’eau, ni dans un environnement susceptible
de provoquer un choc électrique.
DOUBLE ISOLATION POUR UN FONCTIONNEMENT PLUS SUR
Pour assurer un fonctionnement plus sûr de cet outil électrique, metabo HPT a adopté une conception à double isolation. “Double isolation” signifie que deux
systèmes d’isolation physiquement séparés ont été utilisés pour isoler les matériaux conducteurs d’ électrique connectés à l’outil électrique à partir du cadre
extérieur manipulé par l’utilisateur. C’est pourquoi, le symbole “ ” ou les mots “Double insulation” (double isolation) apparaissent sur l’outil électrique ou sur
la plaque signalétique.
Bien que ce système n’ait pas de mise à la terre extérieure, il est quand même nécessaire de suivre les précautions de sécurité électrique données dans ce
mode d’emploi, y compris de ne pas utiliser l’outil électrique dans un environnement humide.
Pour garder le système de double isolation effectif, suivre ces précautions :
∗ Seuls les CENTRES DE SERVICE AUTORISES metabo HPT peuvent démonter et remonter cet outil électrique et uniquement des pièces de rechange
metabo HPT garanties d’origine doivent être utilisées.
∗ Nettoyer l’extérieur de l’outil électrique uniquement avec un chiffon doux légèrement imbibé d’une solution savonneuse et essuyer minutieusement.
∗ Ne jamais utiliser de solvants, d’essence ou de diluants sur les parties en plastique; sinon le plastique risquerait de se dissoudre.
