b ) If the use of a guard is recommended for wire
brushing, do not allow any interference of the
wire wheel or brush with the guard. Wire wheel
or brush may expand in diameter due to work and
centrifugal forces.
Additional Safety Rules for Grinders
•
Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder
spindle thread. For accessories mounted by flanges, the arbor
hole of the accessory must fit the locating diameter of the
flange. Accessories that do not match the mounting hardware
of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively
and may cause loss of control.
•
The grinding surface of the centre depressed wheels must
be mounted below the plane of the guard lip. An improperly
mounted wheel that projects through the plane of the guard
lip cannot be adequately protected.
WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current
device with a residual current rating of 30mA or less.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
•
Impairment of hearing.
•
Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
•
Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
•
Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
