SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Machinery should only be started when grinding heads
are resting on the ground unless carrying out a testing
procedure as outlined in this manual.
• The machine should not be started without the rubber
dust skirt attached. It is essential a good seal between
machine and floor be established for safety, especially
when operating in dry grinding applications.
• During grinding, the machine must be connected to a
vacuum cleaner for the removal of the dust.
• When changing the grinding discs ensure power supply to
the unit is OFF by engaging the Emergency Stop button
and the power-plug disconnected.
• After each grinding/polishing operation always remove the
diamond tools.
• Make sure that the rubber skirt is intact and clean and that
it seals tightly against the floor. Damaged rubber skirt
should always be replaced.
• The grinding disc continues to rotate for some time after
the motor has stopped. Maintain grinding action until the
fan has come to a complete stop. Make sure the grinding
head has stopped rotating before raising the machine.
• When removing glue, asphalt, paint etc. always raise the
machine from the surface after use to prevent it from
sticking to the floor due to the heat. Make sure the
grinding head has stopped rotating before raising the
machine.
• Diamond tools may be very hot after use. Leave machine
to cool off before removing the diamond segments. Use
protective gloves.
• Always use the machine mounted lifting eye when lifting.
• Always carry the machine by the carrying handle and the
handle.
