Oregon 760 Mode D'emploi page 3

or otherwise engage the traveling belt, wheel, or disc
surface with the work piece pointing into the direction
from which the belt, wheel, or disc is traveling. However,
if you choose to do so, be aware the work piece may
lodge in the traveling belt, wheel, or disc and be forcibly
and dangerously ejected.
22. Do not operate this machine if the gap (nip point)
between a moving belt, wheel or disc, and the work
support surface exceeds 1/8 inch.
23. Do not operate this machine if the gap between the
moving abrasive belt, disc or wheel and the adjacent
face of the work rest (or table) will permit passage
of the work piece through the gap (nip point). Note,
however, that certain alloys such as titanium may create
conditions where grinding debris can accumulate in a
tight gap creating a potential fire hazard. When in doubt
consult with your safety officer. Failure to observe
this warning may result in the work piece or other item
being caught in this gap, and/or being forcibly ejected.
Failure to heed this warning may cause serious bodily
harm to the operator and/or bystanders.
24. Never position the work rest table at an acute angle
between the top of the work rest table and the moving
belt or wheel. Doing so will create "nip point" that can
cause serious injury should an operator body part
become entangled (pulled into) the nip point created by
this acute angle.

Occupational Noise Exposure
Oregon products produce levels of noise consistent with
their intended purposes. The level and spectral content of
noise produced is dependent on the product type, the degree
that the product is maintained in proper operating condition,
the abrasive/media and accessories used, the specific
application, and the surrounding environment.
Noise levels produced by various Oregon grinders, as
measured at the factory, range from 80 to 93 decibels.
Product operators and persons in the immediate product
vicinity should be protected from excessive noise dose
levels as prescribed in OSHA regulation 29CFR Part 1910.95
titled "Occupational Noise Exposure".
