8 dO nOT switch the grinder on whilst the disc is in contact with the work piece.
8 dO nOT cover the grinder air vents. to do so will overheat the machine.
8 dO nOT touch the work piece immediately after grinding as it will be very hot.
8 dO nOT use the grinder as a fixed tool, and dO nOT try to cool the grinding discs with water or other lubricants.
8 dO nOT hold unsecured work in your hand and dO nOT touch the grinding disc whilst operating, or whilst plugged into the mains
power.
8 dO nOT leave the grinder running unattended and dO nOT lay the grinder down whilst it is running.

ignition.
8
dO nOT use the grinder where there are flammable liquids, solids or gases.
8
dO nOT allow grinder sparks to make contact with the operator’s clothing or any other fabric such as cleaning rags. fabrics
contaminated with inflammable materials such as petrol, oil, grease, paint and solvents are a particular fire hazard.
9 to reduce the risk of clothing catching fire the operator should wear wool or cotton outer garments treated with a fire retardant in
preference to man-made fibres.
wArning! – risk of Hand Arm Vibration injury.
This tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
this tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We
recommend that a specic evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each
tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
this tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
measured vibration emission value (a): ..........5.30 m/s²
uncertainty value (k): ........................................ 1.5 m/s²
the state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand
Arm Vibration syndrome.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can
be modified accordingly.
Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm
and dry and maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to
the correct use and maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be
found on the HSC website. www.hse.gov.uk - Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.
