2. Instruccions de seguretat

Seguiu sempre els avisos i les instruccions generals de seguretat de les eines elèctriques per evitar descàrregues elèctriques, incendis i lesions greus.

2.1 Seguretat de l'àrea de treball

• Mantenir la zona de treball neta i ben il·luminada. Les zones desordenades o fosques conviden a accidents.
• No feu servir eines elèctriques en atmosferes explosives, com ara en presència de líquids, gasos o pols inflamables. Les eines elèctriques generen espurnes que poden encendre la pols o els fums.
• Mantingueu els nens i els espectadors allunyats mentre feu servir una eina elèctrica. Les distraccions poden fer que perdis el control.

2.2 Seguretat elèctrica

• Els endolls de les eines elèctriques han de coincidir amb la presa de corrent. No modifiqueu mai l'endoll de cap manera.
• Eviteu el contacte corporal amb superfícies connectades a terra com ara canonades, radiadors, estufes i refrigeradors. Hi ha un major risc de descàrrega elèctrica si el vostre cos està connectat a terra o a terra.
• No exposar les eines elèctriques a la pluja o a condicions humides. L'entrada d'aigua en una eina elèctrica augmentarà el risc de descàrrega elèctrica.
• No abuseu del cordó. No utilitzeu mai el cable per transportar, estirar o desconnectar l'eina elèctrica. Mantingueu el cable allunyat de la calor, l'oli, les vores afilades o les peces mòbils. Els cables danyats o enredats augmenten el risc de descàrrega elèctrica.

2.3 Seguretat personal

• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). This includes safety glasses, hearing protection, gloves, and a dust mask.
• Estigueu alerta, observeu el que feu i feu servir el sentit comú quan utilitzeu una eina elèctrica. No utilitzeu una eina elèctrica mentre esteu cansat o sota els efectes de drogues, alcohol o medicaments.
• Eviteu l'arrencada no intencionada. Assegureu-vos que l'interruptor estigui a la posició apagada abans de connectar-lo a la font d'alimentació, agafar o portar l'eina.
• Mantenir un bon peu i un equilibri en tot moment. Això permet un millor control de l'eina elèctrica en situacions inesperades.
• Utilitzeu clamps o una altra manera pràctica d'assegurar i recolzar la peça a una plataforma estable. Aguantar l'obra amb la mà o contra el cos és inestable i pot provocar la pèrdua de control.
