Safety
2.1 General Safety Instructions
•
Read the operating instructions carefully before use.
•
The instrument can only to be used for the purpose described
•
We recommend that a safety logbook should be kept in which
all work (service, repairs etc.) carried out on the machine
should be entered.
•
Use only original accessories and original spare parts. Failure
to do so may call into question the performance of the instru-
ment.
•
Do not use damaged accessories.
•
The operators must be familiar with the contents of the operat-
ing instructions.
To this end, for example, the operating instructions must be
kept with the instrument.
•
Do not remove labels.
•
Protective devices must not be made unserviceable or re-
moved.
•
Unauthorized modification of the instrument or any part
thereof will result in the loss of the conformity to European di-
rectives which is asserted by Fritsch and the warranty.
•
Wear protective gloves while cleaning the cutting chamber.
•
Wear ear protectors if the noise level is higher than 99dB(A).
•
Wear eye shield!
•
Behaviour at all times must be such as to strictly preclude any
risc of accidents.
•
Furthermore, the MAC values at place of work specified in the
pertinent safety regulations must be adhered to. Where appli-
cable, ventilation must be provided or the instrument must be
operated under an exhaust hood.
•
When oxidizable materials such as metals, organic materials,
wood, coal, plastic, etc. are ground or sieved, the risk of spon-
taneous ignition (dust explosion) exists whenever the fine par-
ticles exceed a specific percentage. While such materials are
being ground or sieved, it is therefore necessary to take spe-
cial safety precautions (e.g. wet grinding or wet sieving) and
the work must be supervised by a specialist.
•
The instrument is not explosion-proof and is unsuitable to
grind or sieve materials which are explosive, combustible or
promote combustion.
•
Do not run the cutting mill unsupervised.
