You may obtain an rcd by contacting your local sealey dealer. if the used in the course of business duties, it must be maintained in a safe condition and routinely PAt (Portable Appliance test) tested.
electrical safety information, it is important that the following information is read and understood. 9 ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. 9 regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that they are secure. 9 Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is tted with the correct fuse - see
fuse rating in these instructions. 8 dO nOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable. 8 dO nOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable. Remove the plug from the socket by maintaining a rm grip on the plug. 8 dO nOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. ensure that any faulty item is repaired or replaced immediately by a

8 dO nOT get the grinder wet or use in damp or wet locations. 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. 8 dO nOT operate the grinder when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
9 When not in use, switch off grinder, remove plug from power supply and store in safe, dry, childproof area.
wArning! the grinding process can produce streams of sparks (especially when grinding metal) which are a potential source of
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 specic 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.
