12.3
General Safety Instructions
To avoid malfunctions, damage and health hazards when working with the machine, the following
points must be observed in addition to the general rules for safe working:
Before start-up, check the machine for completeness and function.
Choose a level, vibration-free, non-slip surface for the installation location.
Ensure sufficient space around the machine!
Ensure sufficient lighting conditions at the workplace to avoid stroboscopic effects.
Ensure a clean working environment.
Only use perfect tools that are free of cracks and other defects (e.g. deformations).
Remove tool keys and other adjustment tools before turning on the machine.
Keep the area around the machine free of obstacles (e.g. dust, chips, cut parts, etc.).
Never leave the running machine unattended. Switch off the machine before leaving the
working area and secure it against unintentional or unauthorised restart.
The machine may only be operated, maintained or repaired by persons who are familiar
with it and who have been informed of the dangers arising in the course of this work.
Ensure that unauthorised persons maintain an appropriate safety distance from the
machine and keep children away from the machine.
When working on the machine, never wear loose jewellery, loose clothing, ties or long,
open hair.
Hide long hair under hair protection.
Wear close-fitting protective clothing and suitable protective equipment (eye protection,
dust mask, ear protection, work gloves).
Always work with care and the necessary caution and never use excessive force.
Do not overload the machine!
Shut down the machine and disconnect it from the power supply before carrying out any
adjustment, retrofitting, cleaning, maintenance or repair work. Before starting any work
on the machine, wait until all tools or machine parts have come to a complete standstill
and secure the machine against unintentional restarting.
Do not work on the machine if it is tired, not concentrated or under the influence of
medication, alcohol or drugs!
12.4
Electrical Safety
Make sure that the machine is earthed.
Only use suitable (extension-)cables. Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the
socket. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
The machine may only be used in humid environments if the power source is protected by
a residual current circuit breaker.
Protect yourself from electric shock. Avoid body contact with earthed parts.
A damaged cable must be replaced immediately!
12.5
Special safety instructions for that machine
Only grind dry.
Do not reach into the running machine.
Do not brake the grinding wheel with your hand or other objects.
Do not use the machine if the grinding wheel is damaged.
The machine must stand firmly on a firm, stable, vibration-resistant base with rubber feet
mounted. For stationary operation, we recommend that the machine be fixed to the
ground (e.g. stable workbench) or to a suitable machine stand (e.g. DSMMS1).
If the grinding wheel is used up, the workpiece support and the protective glass must be
readjusted! Protect grinding wheels from shocks, impacts etc. Replace defective grinding
wheels immediately. Whenever a grinding wheel is fitted, we recommend that it be fitted
as accurately as possible to avoid imbalance and irregular wear, in order to ensure a long
service life of the wheel. Additional unbalance checking, e.g. static is recommended.
