Initial Operation - Metabo Rsev 19-125 Rt Originalbetriebsanleitung

en ENGLISH
Accessories must be stored and handled with care
in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
The workpiece must be seated firmly and be
secured against slipping, e.g. using clamps. Large
workpieces must be supported adequately.
If accessories with threaded inserts are used, the
end of the spindle may not touch the base of the
hole on the grinding tool. Make sure that the thread
in the accessory is long enough to accommodate
the full length of the spindle. The thread in the
accessory must match the thread on the spindle.
See page 3 and chapter 14. Technical Specifica-
tions for more information on the spindle length and
thread.
Impurities that manage to enter the
machine may block the switching
mechanism. This is why, when the machine is
running, it is necessary to blow compressed air
through the rear ventilation slots of the machine
regularly, frequently and thoroughly. The machine
must be held firmly in this case.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be
used.
Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electrical
cables and load-bearing walls (building structure).
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, converting or servicing the machine.
A damaged or cracked side handle must be
replaced. Never operate the machine with a
defective additional handle.
A damaged or cracked safety guard must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
safety guard.
Only use accessories that are surmounted by
brushes of the safety guard.
Only use the guard supplied: The wrong guard can
lead to loss of control, insufficient shielding,
increased risk from dust exposure and serious
injury.
Use authorised tools only.
Reducing dust exposure:
WARNING - Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead-based paints,
- crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
- arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals,work in a well-
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
This also applies to dust from other materials, such
as some timber types (like oak or beech dust),
metals, asbestos. Other known diseases are e.g.
12
allergic reactions, respiratory diseases. Do not let
dust enter the body.
Observe the relevant guidelines and national
regulations for your material, staff, application and
place of application (e.g. occupational health and
safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the particles generated at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this
way, fewer particles enter the environment in an
uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream towards yourself or nearby
persons or towards dust deposits,
- use an extraction unit and/or an air purifier,
- ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep
it clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust.
- Vacuum or wash protective clothing. Do not blow,
beat or brush protective gear.

6. Initial Operation

Before plugging in the machine, check that the
rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as
specified on the rating label, match your power
supply.
Australia: Always use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply with a rated residual
current of 30 mA or less.
6.1 Fitting of bar auxiliary handle
Always work with the bar auxiliary handle (1)
attached! Fit the bar auxiliary handle as shown
(see illustration A, page 2).
