extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used,
especially in confined areas.
▪ Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine whether it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, free running of moving
parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other conditions that may affect its operation.
