• Ensure that the work piece is securely fi xed.
To reduce the risks associated with fi re and/or explosion:
• Do not operate the tool in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable liquids, gases, or dust. The abrasives are able to create sparks when
working material, resulting in the ignition of the fl ammable dust or fumes.
• Make sure tool is in proper working order.
• Be aware of material being worked. Refer to SDS of material being worked as to potential for creating fi re or explosion hazard.
To reduce the risks associated with fl y off of abrasive product or parts:
• Inadequately tightened abrasive product, mounting hardware, safety features or accessories could cause damage to the tool, product and/or work piece and
possible injury to the operator or bystanders.
• Check that the maximum operating speed of the related abrasive and/or accessories is equal to or higher than the rated speed of the power tool.
To reduce the risks associated with hazardous dust ingestion or eye/skin exposure:
• Dusts and fumes generated when using power tools can cause ill health (for example: cancer, birth defects, asthma and/or dermatitis); risk assessment of
these hazards and implementation of appropriate controls is essential.
• Risk assessment should include dust created by the use of the tool and the potential for disturbing existing dust.
• Operate and maintain the power tool as recommended in these instructions, to minimize dust or fume emissions.
• Where dusts or fumes are created, the priority shall be to control them at the point of emission.
• All integral features or accessories for the collection, extraction or suppression of airborne dust or fumes should be correctly used and maintained in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable as recommended in these instructions, to prevent an unnecessary increase in dust or fumes.
• Use respiratory protection as instructed by your employer and as required by occupational health and safety regulations.
• Use dust capture or local exhaust as stated in the SDS of the material being worked on. Wear government approved respirator protection and eye and skin
protection.
• Periodically blow out all air passages and area above disk pad and under shroud with dry compressed air. All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp
cloth. Never use solvents to clean plastic parts.
• Wear safety glasses while using compressed air.
• Failure to follow these warnings can result in serious lung damage and/or physical injury.
To reduce the risks associated with hazardous vibration:
• Discontinue use of power tool when you are feeling discomfort in your fi ngers, hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body.
• If you experience numbness, tingling, pain, whitening of the skin or any additional hand/wrist discomfort, work should be stopped promptly to seek medical
attention. Overexposure to vibration from repetitive work/motion can cause disabling damage to the nerves and blood supply of the hands and arms.
• Hold the tool with a light but safe grip taking account of the required hand reaction forces, because the risk from vibration is generally greater when the grip
force is higher.
To reduce the risks associated with hazardous noise:
• Unprotected exposure to high noise levels can cause permanent, disabling, hearing loss and other problems such as tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, whistling or
humming in the ears).
• Always wear hearing protection while operating this tool. Follow your employer's safety policy or local/national standards for personal protective equipment
requirements.
• Use appropriate controls to reduce the work piece vibration. Including but not limited to, damping materials being worked on.
To reduce the risks associated with overhead work:
• On overhead work, wear a safety helmet and protect from falling debris.
• Be aware of environment and bystanders below grinding application if working on a platform.
To reduce the risks associated with skin abrasion, burns, cutting and severing, entrapment or entanglement:
• Keep hands, hair, jewelry, neckwear and clothing away from the rotating part of the tool.
• Wear suitable protective gloves while operating tool.
• Do not touch the rotating parts during operation for any reason.
• Hold the tool correctly. Be ready to counteract normal or sudden movements - have both hands available.
• Use only lubricants recommended by the manufacturer or as designated by the facility.
To reduce the risks associated with fl y off of abrasive product or parts:
• Use care in attaching abrasive product, mounting hardware, safety features and accessories, following the instructions to ensure that they are securely
attached, aligned, and in good working order before use.
• Never over-tighten the abrasive product, mounting hardware, safety features or accessories.
• Never free spin the tool without inspecting tool, abrasive product, mounting hardware, safety features and accessories.
• Do not allow the tool to be started unintentionally.
• Never point this product in the direction of yourself or another person.
To reduce the risks associated with environmental contamination:
• Dispose of all process dust and affected abrasive in accordance with all applicable regulations and/or material SDS.
• Do not throw electric power tools into the household waste! In accordance with the European Directive 2002/96/CE on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment and transposition into national law, used electric power tools must be collected separately and recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.
• Separate collection of used products and packaging allows materials to be recycled. Use of recycle materials helps prevent environmental pollution and
reduces the demand for raw materials.
