˜ Safety instructions for
abrasive cutting appliances
The blade guard, which is a part of
a)
the power tool, must be attached se-
curely and set in a way that ensures
maximum safety, i.e. the smallest
possible amount of the grinding tool
is exposed to the operator. Ensure that
you and anyone else in the vicinity remain
outside of the range of the rotating grinding
disc. The blade guard is designed to protect
the operator from fragments and accidental
contact with the grinding tool.
Use only diamond-coated cutting
b)
discs for your power tool. Just because
you can attach the accessories to your pow-
er tool, does not ensure they are safe to use.
The permissible speed of the
c)
accessory tool used must be at
least as high as the maximum
speed specified for the power tool.
Accessories which rotate faster than the
maximum permissible rate can break and
throw pieces into the air.
Grinding tools should only be used
d)
for the recommended applications.
For example: Never grind with the side
surface of a cutting disc. Cutting discs
are designed to remove material with the
edge of the disc. Any lateral application of
force on these grinding tools can lead to a
breakage.
Always use an undamaged
e)
clamping flange of the correct size
and shape for the selected grinding
disc. Suitable flanges support the grinding
disc and reduce the risk of a disc breakage.
Do not use worn grinding discs from
f)
larger power tools. Grinding discs for
larger power tools are not designed for the
higher rotational speeds of smaller power
tools and can break.
The external diameter and thickness
g)
of the accessory tool used must
comply with the dimensions of your
power tool. Incorrectly dimensioned
accessory tools cannot be sufficiently
shielded or controlled.
Grinding discs and flanges must fit
h)
precisely onto the grinding spindle
of your power tool. Accessory tools
which do not fit precisely on the grinding
spindle of the power tool will rotate unevenly,
vibrate severely and can lead to a loss of
control.
Do not use damaged grinding discs.
i)
Check the grinding discs before each use
for chips and cracks. If the power tool or
grinding disc is dropped, check to see if it
either are damaged, or use an undamaged
grinding disc. After checking and inserting
the grinding disc, ensure that you and any
other people in the vicinity remain outside of
the range of the rotating grinding disc and
allow the tool to rotate at maximum speed
for one minute. Damaged grinding discs
usually break during this test period.
Wear personal protective equip-
j)
ment. Depending on the application,
ensure that you use full face pro-
tection, eye protection or goggles.
If required, use a dust mask, ear
muffs, protective gloves or a special
apron to protect you from grindings
and material particles. Protect your
eyes from flying debris that may be created
during certain applications. Dust or filter
masks must be used to filter any dust created
by the application. If you are exposed to
loud noise for any length of time, you can
suffer a hearing loss.
