PURPOSE OF USE
- The air die grinder can be used for the following purposes:
• smoothing surfaces
• removing burrs and/or scraps
• the grinder can also be used in open places exposed to water and air
- The air die grinder must not be used for the following operations:
• no grinding wheels or similar devices exceeding 50 mm in diameter may be used
• no grinding wheels or similar devices that do not support the maximum rotational speed of the tool may be used
• no cutting disc wheels or milling cutters may be used
• the grinder must not be used in environments containing potentially explosive atmospheres
• the trigger must not be locked with adhesive tape or clamps
WORK AREA SAFETY
- Beware of both surfaces that may become slippery due to the use of the machine and the danger of tripping over the air hose.
- While using the pneumatic tool for jobs performed high from the ground, take all necessary precautions, to eliminate or minimize risk
to other workers, following the accidental falling of any tools (for example, isolation of the work area and proper signs).
Do not operate the pneumatic tool in environments containing potentially explosive atmospheres, because sparks may
be generated, which can ignite the dust or fumes.
Avoid contact with live equipment, because the pneumatic tool is not insulated, and contact with live parts can cause
electric shocks.
Keep children and bystanders away from your workplace while operating the pneumatic tool. Distractions from other
people can cause you to lose control over the pneumatic tool.
To find any hidden power supply lines, use suitable search tools or contact the local power supply company.
Contact with electric lines can cause fires and electric shocks. Damaging gas lines causes the risk of explosion.
Penetrating a water pipe will result in severe material damage.
PNEUMATIC TOOL SAFETY
- Do not point the air flow to yourself or other people. Compressed air can cause serious injury.
- Check the connections and the air supply lines. All units, couplers and hoses should conform to the product specifications in
terms of pressure and air volume. Too low pressure impairs the function of the pneumatic tool; too high pressure can cause
damage and/or injury.
- Do not bend or tighten any hoses; avoid using solvents and sharp edges. Keep the hoses away from heat, oil and rotating
parts. Immediately replace any damaged hose. A defective feed pipe may cause uncontrolled movements of the compressed
air pipe. Raised dust or chips may cause eye injury. Make sure that the hose clamps are always secured firmly.
PERSONNEL SAFETY
- Stay alert; watch what you are doing. Do not use the pneumatic tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication
- Always use personal protective equipment
- Make sure you are in a safe position, keeping proper balance at all times. A safe working position and a proper body posture
enable better control of the pneumatic tool in unexpected situations.
- Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery,
and long hair can get caught in moving parts.
- Do not directly inhale the exhaust air, and prevent it from getting into your eyes. The exhaust air of the pneumatic tool can
contain water, oil, metal particles and impurities, which may cause hazards
- Do not place the die grinder before the grinding wheel has stopped completely.
