Operator’s manual
2.1
Operation
After wiring and adjusting the machine it is now ready for use. Slowly lead the work
piece towards the polishing disc and avoid strokes and heavy pressure against the
polsihing disc. Use a light pressure to avoid destroying the polishing disc and
overloading the motor. Let the machine run at max speed before start polishing.
Always aim to polish at highest possible speed. If possible secure the work piece
with a clamp or a similar device as it is safer than holding the work piece in your
hands.
Do not stop the rotation of the polishing disc by pressing a work piece against it.
Always let it rotate freely until it stops by itself.
Make sure you always have the workspace illuminated.
2.2
Safety regulations for stationary machine tools
2.
Keep the safety guards in place
and in good condition.
Follow these regulations to achieve the best result and to make the best use of your
new machine.
Any good craftsman must respect the tool
he is working with. He knows they represent
a constantly improved design. He also
knows that incorrect use of the machine is
dangerous.
This is the theme of a new safety
programme for use of machine tools. These
safety regulations are based on approved
practice in the industry and in the workshop.
3.
All machine tools equipped with a
power plug must be earthed. If you
use an adapter to fit a 2-pin socket,
the adapter must always be earthed.
Never remove the 3rd pin.
4.
Remove adjustable
spanners and wrenches.
Get into the habit of checking
that these have been
removed before connecting
the machine.
5.
Keep the workbench tidy.
Untidiness can lead to
accidents.
6.
Avoid dangerous work environments. Do
not use machine tools in damp or wet
premises and do not expose them to rain.
Make sure you have good working light.
7.
Keep children away. All visitors should keep
a good distance from the work area.
8.
Make your workshop childproof by using a tool lock, a
line breaker or by removing start keys.
1.
Know your tool. Read the
instructions carefully.
Familiarise yourself with its use
and limitations, as well as the
specific potential dangers
associated with this tool.
