5. HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION
LOCATION:
1. Posture
Ensure when mounting the machine that the chosen location does not lead to unhealthy
posture or repetitive strain during normal operation.
2. Lighting
Adequate lighting must be provided to ensure no operations are light impaired possibly
leading to injury. Light should be from multiple sources to avoid any strobing effects from
flourescent or LED sources.
3. Reach
Do not reach over or around the machine at any time.
UNEXPECTED START-UP:
1. Remove the plug
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
ERRORS OF FITTING:
1. Tools
Ensure a suitable tool for the job in hand is securely and correctly fitted prior to starting the
machine.
Guards shall be fitted and in place at all times.
STABILITY:
1. Toppling
The drill shall be securely bolted down to a suitable and level surface to prevent the machine
from overturning leading to injury.
2. Slipping
Ensure the area is clean of any residue cutting/lubrication fluid and other materials which
may lead to a slip, trip or other such hazard.
5.3 CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Make sure the power supply information on the machine’s rating plate are compatible with the
power supply you intend to connect it to.
The Drill comes supplied with a UK standard 3 pin plug fitted. It is designed for connection to a
domestic power supply rated at 230V AC.
Because it is constructed mostly of metal parts, it is a Class 1 machine; meaning, it must have
an earth connection in the power supply. This is to prevent electrocution in the event of a
failure.
Apart from replacing the fuse in the plug, no other electrical work is recommended on this drill.
