▸
Do not use composite discs.
▸
Use flexible underlays if these are supplied with
the abrasive and when they are required.
▸
Observe the instructions of the tool or accessory
manufacturer! Protect the wheels and discs from
grease and run-out!
▸
Accessories must be stored and handled with
care in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
▸
The workpiece must be resting on a stable sur-
face and secured to prevent slipping, e.g. using
clamping devices. Large workpieces must be
adequately supported.
▸
Damaged or vibrating tools or tools with run-out
must not be used.
▸
Check that at the point where work is to be per-
formed that there are no power, water, gas
lines (e.g. using a metal detector).
▸
Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electric
cables and load-bearing walls (statics).
▸

Further safety instructions
Reducing the dust load
▸
Several rods that are not produced by means
of sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other
work processes contain chemicals that are known
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproduc-
tive harm. Several examples of these chemicals
include:
— Lead from lead-containing paint,
— Mineral dust from mineral stones, cement and
other brickwork materials, as well as
— Arsenic and chrome from chemically treated
wood
▸
The risk posed to you due to exposure varies de-
pending on how often your carry out this type of
work. In order to reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: Work in a well-ventilated area and
work with approved protective equipment, e.g.
dust masks which have been specially developed
to filter out microscopic particles.
▸
This also applies to dust deriving from other
materials, e.g. several types of wood (such as oak
or beech-tree dust), metal, asbestos. Other known
afflictions include allergic reactions, respiratory ill-
nesses for example. Do not swallow or inhale dust.
▸
Observe the directives and national regulations
applicable for your material, personnel, appli-
cation and place of use (e.g. health and safety
regulations, disposal).
▸
Capture the particulates generated at the place
of origin, do not allow them to be deposited in
the surroundings.
▸
Use accessories suitable for special work. This
will reduce the uncontrolled escape of particu-
lates into the surroundings.
▸
Use a suitable dust extraction system.
▸
Reduce the dust load by:
• Ensuring the escaping flow of particulates and
exhaust air from the machine is not directed
towards yourself or towards other persons in the
vicinity or towards settled dust.
• Use an extractor system and/or an air cleaner,
• Provide good workplace ventilation and keep
clean by vacuuming. Sweeping or blowing
swirls up dust.
• Vacuum or wash protective clothing. Do not
blow, hit or brush.
WARNING!
Dusts from materials can be harmful to
health.
Use a dust mask or respirator.
