SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Grinding Safety
•
The direct work area should not contain
buried or embedded electrical, gas, or
water lines that could be damaged and/or
cause personal injury while grinding.
•
Turn off all electricity, gas, and water
around the direct work area prior to
grinding.
•
Inspect the work area to ensure nothing will
impede full control of the machine at all
times.
•
DO NOT allow any person, animal, and/or
objects in and around the work area while
grinding.
•
Ensure the work area is adequately
illuminated to ensure safe operation of the
machine.
•
Disconnect power when not in use, before
servicing, and when changing the grinding
head.
Belt Safety
•
Turn off the motor and let the belt cool
down prior to servicing it.
•
Regularly inspect the belt for fraying, stress
cracks, and/or breakage and replace
immediately when damaged. Always check
the belt alignment prior to operating the
equipment.
•
Use extreme caution when working with
belts and rotating machine parts to avoid
entanglement.
•
Over-tensioning the belt may reduce the
life of the blade shaft bearings. Under-
tensioning the belt may cause slippage,
shorter belt life, and/or poor equipment
performance.
•
Squealing belts indicate looseness.
Transporting Safety
•
Remove the grinding head prior to
transporting the equipment.
•
Chock the wheels and secure the floor
grinder in the truck/trailer prior to
transporting.
•
Ensure the grinding head does not make
contact with the ground and/or other surface
when transporting the floor grinder.
•
Refer to the Department of Transportation
(DOT)
for
additional
transportation
recommendations.
Lifting Safety
•
Move yourself and all others
away from the lifting area when
hoisting the floor grinder to
prevent being crushed.
•
DO NOT attempt to lift the floor grinder
irresponsibly and/or improperly.
