12.4 General Safety Instructions
To avoid malfunctions, damage and health hazards when working with the machine, in addition to
the general rules for safe working, the following points in particular must be observed:
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!
Only use suitable tools that are free of cracks and other defects (e.g. deformations).
Remove setting tools from the machine before switching it on.
Keep the area around the machine free of obstacles (e.g. dust, chips, etc.).
Check that the machine is in perfect condition before each use.
Never leave the running machine unattended.
The machine may only be operated, serviced or repaired by persons who are familiar with
it and who have been informed of the dangers arising during this work.
Ensure that unauthorised persons maintain an appropriate safety distance from the
machine and keep children away from the machine in particular.
Wear suitable work clothing (eye protection, ear protection, dust mask, safety shoes) and
close-fitting protective clothing - never loose clothing, ties, jewellery, etc. - danger of
being drawn in!
Hide long hair under hair protection.
Do not remove splinters and chips by hand!
Do not work on the machine if you are tired, not concentrated or under the influence of
medication, alcohol or drugs!
Do not use the machine outdoors, in very damp rooms or in the presence of flammable
liquids or gases.
Do not smoke in the immediate vicinity of the machine (fire hazard)!
Make sure that the on/off switch is in the "Off" position before connecting the machine to
the power supply.
Ensure that the machine is earthed.
Check the mains cable regularly and, if damaged, have it repaired by an authorised
workshop.
Do not operate the machine if the on/off switch is defective.
Only use suitable extension cords.
Always disconnect the machine from the mains before cleaning, maintenance or repair
work and secure it against unintentional restarting.
12.5 Special Safety Instructions for Operating the DSM2000 DS
Allow the grinding wheel and brush to reach their maximum speed before starting
machining.
Adjust the protective cover and spark protection so that you, the operator, are protected
from flying sparks.
Always hold the workpiece with both hands.
Do not hit the workpiece on the grinding wheel or brush, but exert progressive pressure.
Cool the workpiece from time to time in a water tray.
Do not touch the moving wheel or the rotating brush.
Wait until the grinding wheel and brush have come to a complete stop before carrying out
any work on the machine.
Pay attention to the surface of the drum during continuous operation - there is an acute
risk of burns due to heat generation!
12.6 Hazard Warnings
Despite their intended use, certain residual risks remain. Due to the design and construction of
the machine, hazardous situations may occur when handling the machines, which are identified
as follows in these operating instructions:
A safety instruction designed in this way indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
