Safety instructions for pneumatic tools
Grinding and parting discs may
† z
not be used for face grinding
(exception: face grinding wheels).
Pneumatic angle grinders may not
be used at circumferential speeds
greater than the maximum value
specified for an abrasive.
The operating personnel must
† z
make sure that there is nobody
standing nearby.
Personal protective equipment
† z
such as suitable gloves, aprons,
and hard hats must be used.
The sparks generated by part-
† z
ing work may ignite clothing and
cause serious burns. Make sure
that the sparks do not contact
clothing. Wear fire retardant
clothing, and make sure that there
is a pail of water nearby.
HAZARDS FROM REPEATED
MOVEMENTS
Using a pneumatic angle grinder
† z
for work related activities may
cause unpleasant sensations in
the operating personnel's hands,
arms, neck, shoulders, and other
parts of the body.
When using a pneumatic angle
† z
grinder, the operating person-
nel should adopt a comfortable
posture, stand on a stable sur-
face, and avoid postures making
it difficult to maintain balance.
26 GB/IE/NI
The operating personnel should
change their posture during long
work periods, thereby helping to
minimise unpleasant sensations
and fatigue.
If the operating personnel should
† z
feel symptoms like e.g. constant
or recurrent nausea, complaints,
throbbing, pain, tingling,
numbness, burning, or stiffness,
these should not be ignored. The
operating personnel should report
this to the employer and consult a
qualified medical expert.
HAZARDS FROM ACCESSORIES
Disconnect the pneumatic angle
† z
grinder from the power source
before fitting or replacing the
machine tool or accessory.
Use exclusively those accessories
† z
and consumables of the sizes
and types recommended by the
manufacturer of the pneumatic
angle grinder. Do not use any
other size or type of accessories
and consumables.
Make sure that the parting disc
† z
size is compatible with that of the
pneumatic angle grinder and that
the parting disc fits on the spindle.
Make sure that the parting disc's
† z
thread type and size correspond
exactly to the spindle thread's type
and size.
