DISC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Check the speed of the disc before fitting. Never use a disc with a rated
speed less than the no-load speed of your angle grinder. Only use discs
that comply with EN12413. See Specifications on page 14. Check that the
speed marked on the wheel is compatible with the grinder and that discs
are specifically for hand held angle grinder use.
2. Inspect the disc before fitting. Never use a disc that is chipped, cracked
or damaged. Fragments from a broken or damaged disc can cause
serious injury. Make sure that defective discs are destroyed and not used.
3. Bonded abrasive products are breakable and must therefore be handled
with utmost care. The use of damaged or improperly mounted or used
abrasive products is dangerous and can cause serious injuries.
4. Always refer to the label for specified usage and observe the safety
information. Do not use for purposes other than specified. Discs for wet
cutting applications must not be used with this angle grinder.
5. Always use the correct disc for it’s intended task. Using the incorrect disc
can cause serious injury.
6. Allow the disc and tool to do the work. Never force the disc onto the
workpiece as this could cause kickback and/or shatter the disc causing
serious injury. Kickback can occur in the event of a disc jam.
7. Do not use cutting discs for side grinding. Do not put sideways pressure on
cutting discs.
8. Do not use separate reducing bushes or adapters to adapt large hole
abrasive wheels. Do not force a disc onto a machine or alter the size of
the arbor hole
.
9. Abrasive products shall be handled and transported with care. Abrasive
products shall be stored in such a manner that they are not subjected to
mechanical damage and harmful environmental influences. It is
recommended that discs are stored in the case provided to protect them
from damage and hazardous materials.
Please keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference.
