Hazards caused by flying parts
■ If a workpiece or accessory or even part of the
machine tool itself breaks, parts can be flung
out at high speeds.
■ Always wear shock-resistant eye protection when
operating the grinding machine for abrasive
media. The degree of necessary protection must
be evaluated separately for each individual
task.
■ You must ensure that the workpiece has been
securely fixed.
■ You must ensure that the abrasive media has
been safely attached to the grinding machine
for abrasive media.
■ You must ensure that the maximum operating
rotational speed of the abrasive media calcu-
lated in revolutions per minute is the same as
or higher than the rated spindle speed.
■ Ensure that the protective guard has been fitted,
that it is in good condition and properly fixed,
and that it is regularly checked.
■ It is possible that no protective guard is required
during internal grinding under the condition that
the workpiece encloses the abrasive media.
■ You must ensure that the clamping flange is be-
ing used in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions and that it is in good condition, i.e.
without cracks and flaws, and that it is flat.
■ You must check to see whether the spindle and
spindle thread have become damaged or worn.
■ You must ensure that any sparks or ashes
produced during operation do not cause any
hazards.
■ Always disconnect the grinding machine from
the power supply before replacing the abrasive
media or servicing it.

Hazards caused by entanglement

■ Suffocation, scalping and/or cut wounds can
occur if loose clothing, jewellery, necklaces, hair
or gloves are not kept away from the machine
and its accessories.

Hazards during operation

■ Avoid contact with the rotating spindle and the
fitted grinding disc in order to avoid cuts to the
hands and other body parts.
■ When using the machine, the operator's hands
can be subject to hazards such as cuts, grazing
and heat. Wear suitable gloves to protect your
hands.
■ The operator and maintenance personnel must
be physically capable of handling the size, mass
and power of the machine.
■ Hold the machine correctly:
Be ready to counteract any normal or suddenly
occurring movements. Keep both hands ready
for use.
■ Ensure that your body is balanced and that you
have a secure standing position.
■ Release the start/stop control if there is a disrup-
tion to the power supply.
■ Use only the recommended lubricants.
■ Safety goggles must be worn; wearing of protec-
tive gloves and safety clothing is recommended.
■ Wear a safety helmet if working above head
height.
■ Do not put the machine down after switching
off until the disc has stopped rotating.
■ When abrasive cutting, the workpiece must be
supported so that the cutting slot has a constant
or increasing width during the entire cutting
process.
■ If the abrasive media jams in the cutting slot, the
grinding machine for abrasive media must be
turned off and the grinding disc must be loos-
ened. Before continuing operation, check that
the abrasive media is still properly fixed and
has not been damaged.
