Safety instructions
Introduce the appliance to the work-
piece when it is switched on. When the
task is complete, lift the appliance from the
work-piece and then switch it off.
Let the switched off appliance come
to a complete standstill before putting
it down.
After every use check the speed and
the noise level.
Check speed regularly.
ATTENTION! Clean the appliance before
maintenance from all dangerous substances
which (due to work processes) may have accu-
mulated on the appliance. Avoid all skin con-
tact with these substances.
Note: If your skin comes into contact with
dangerous dusts, severe dermatitis may result.
If dust is produced or dispersed during the
maintenance work, it can be inhaled.

General safety rules

The operator always has to assess the particu-
lar risks involved in the respective applications
and has to carry out the connected safety
measures.
Multiple hazards. The safety instructions
must be read and understood before rigging,
operating, repairing, maintaining and exchang-
ing accessories on the sander and before
working near the machine. Failure to observe
this may result in severe physical injuries.
The sander or polisher should only be set up,
adjusted or used by qualified and trained
operators.
This sander or polisher must not be
modified. Modifications may reduce the
effectiveness of safety measures and increase
operator risks.
Do not allow these safety instructions
to get lost - hand them to the operator.
Never used damaged discs for the
sander or polisher.
The machines have to be regularly
inspected to check that the machines
are marked with the rated values and
38 GB/MT
markings clearly given in this docu-
ment. If necessary the employer/operator
has to contact the manufacturer to receive
replacement labels.

Risks due to projected parts

If the work-piece, one of the accessories or the
tool itself breaks, parts may be projected at
great speed.
When operating the sander or the
polisher, always wear impact resistant
eye protection. The level of required pro-
tection required should be assessed individually
for each application.
When working overhead, a safety
helmet must be worn.
In this case, the risk to other people must also
be assessed.
It must be ensured that the work-piece
is properly secured.

Hazards from entanglement

There is the danger of suffocation,
scalping or suffering cuts, when loosely
fitting clothing, jewellery, hair or
gloves are not kept away from the
machine and its accessories.

Operating hazards

When using the machine, the operator's
hands may be at risk, for example
from cutting, abrasion and heat. Wear
suitable gloves to protect hands.
The operator and maintenance personnel must
be physically capable of managing the size,
weight and power of the machine.
Hold the machine correctly: be prepared
to counteract typical or sudden movements –
keep both hands ready.
Be sure your body is well balanced
and that you maintain a solid grip.
