5. SAFETY RULES FOR STRAPING TOOLS
5.1 Joints
You are fully responsible to review the joints made by your tool. Become familiar
with the seal control and seal adjustment described in this operation manual.
Misformed joints may not secure the load and could cause serious injury. Never
handle or ship any load with improperly formed joints.
5.2 Dispensing Strap
Only dispense strap from a dispenser specifically designed for strap.
Tuck strap end back into dispenser when not in use.
5.3 Strap Warnings
Never use strap as a means of pulling or lifting loads. Failure to follow these
warnings can result in severe personal injury.
5.4 Strap Breakage Hazard
Improper operation of the tool, excessive tensioning, using strap not recommended
for this tool or sharp corners on the load can result in a sudden loss of strap tension
or in strap breakage during tensioning, which could result in the following:
A sudden loss of balance causing you to fall.
Both tool and strap flying violently towards your face.
Note as follows:
If the load corners are sharp, use edge protectors.
Place the strap correctly around a properly positioned load.
Positioning yourself in-line with the strap, during tensioning and sealing, can
result in severe personal injury from flying strap or tool. When tensioning or
sealing, position yourself to one side of the strap and keep all bystanders
away.
Use the correct strap quality, strap width, strap gauge and strap tensile
strength recommended in this manual for your tool. Using strap not
recommended for this tool can result in strap breakage during tensioning.
5.5 Cutting Tensioned Strap
When cutting strapping, use the proper strapping cutter and keep other personnel
and yourself at a safe distance from the strap. Always stand to side of the strap,
away from the direction the loosened strap end will fly. Use only cutters designed
for strap and never hammers, pliers, hacksaws, axes, etc.
5.6 Environment Protection
Do not dispose of used batteries in the household refuse, water or by burning them.
For disposal of the batteries the local laws and prescriptions must be observed.
