WARNING - SAFETY RULES
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions must be read and understood before any operation.
Any modification or update that is not specified in the instructions manual should not be undertaken.
The manufacturer is not liable for any injury or damage due to a non-compliance with the instructions contained in this manual.
If unsure of what to do, please ask a qualified person to handle the installation.
POSSIBLE RISKS IN RELATION TO POWER SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
• Pressurised air can cause serious damage.
• Always stop the air distribution and disconnect the tool from the air supply when replacing or repairing accessories or when not in use.
• Do not direct the air flow at other people or yourself; always use the tool at a safe distance from people near the work area.
• Fast moving pipes can cause serious damage; check pipes and connections carefully for loss or breakage.
• Do not use the quick-change connections on the tool, they could weigh it down and loosen due to vibration.
• Read the instructions for correct assembly.
• Whenever the universal swivel couplings are used, use a locking pin.
• Do not exceed the maximum air pressure limit of 6-7 bar or the value indicated on the plate of the pneumatic tool.
• Handle hoses and connectors with care. Do not hold the pipe to carry the machine. Do not use excessive force to pull the air connector out. Keep
pipes away from heat sources, lubricants and sharp edges.
• Check the hoses for wear before use. Check that all connections are secure.
RISKS CAUSED BY FRAGMENTS
• Always use eye and face protection equipment when using the tool.
• Smaller fragments could also cause eye damage and possibly blindness.
• The explosion of pneumatic tools can cause serious damage.
AVOID BECOMING ENTANGLED
• Keep a suitable distance from working drills, blades, moving tools, etc.
• Do not wear loose fitting clothing or jewellery and avoid long hair.
RISKS CAUSED BY OPERATION
• Avoid direct contact with the shaft and its accessory if they are in motion to avoid any interruption.
• Wear protective gloves.
• Do not modify the tool or its accessories.
• Operators and maintenance personnel must be physically able to handle the power of the tool and follow the necessary procedures.
• Do not force the tool; if you use it at the speed for which it was designed, its performance will be better and more reliable.
DANGERS CAUSED BY WORKING CONDITIONS
• Slipping, tripping and falling are the main causes of accidents.
• The high noise level can cause permanent damage to hearing. Employers and trade safety organisations recommend the use of earmuffs.
Keep your body in balance and firmly on your feet. Repetitive work movements, unusual positions and exposure to vibration can be harmful to your
hands and arms. In case of numbness, tingling, pain or face getting pale, stop using the tool and consult a doctor.
• This tool is not suitable for use in hazardous areas.
SAFETY STANDARDS REGARDING THE USE OF THE TOOL
• Handle the mini-grinder with care to ensure longer life.
• Wear eye and ear protection, a half mask and protective gloves when using the tool.
• Use only in ventilated areas.
• Do not use the tool in hazardous areas and use it away from combustible materials; the contact between the tool and metals produces sparks.
• Do not hold the devide by the pipe.
• Abrasives heat up during use. Allow them to cool before handling them. Disconnect the air line whenever changing or adjusting the abrasives.
The user must wear appropriate clothing. Loose clothing, long hair, ties, straps, belts or jewellery should not be worn when using this tool.
Always use eye protection to avoid injuries caused by debris or parts ejected at high speed when operating the tool.
High sound levels can lead to permanent hearing loss.
Use hearing protection during operation.
INSTALLATION – PRODUCT OPERATION
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This tool is specifically designed to grind sharp surfaces, edges or corners, soften or polish metal parts. Any other use of this tool is strongly
discouraged.
START UP
•
The compressed air network must be perfectly purged and adapted to the consumption of the tool. A pressure-reducer and lubricator filter (except
for tools without lubrication) of appropriate size must be installed at a maximum distance of 10 metres from the tool. Its regulation pressure must be
set at 6.2 bar and the specialist oil flow rate for tools to be lubricated must be about 1 drop of oil every 30 seconds for an air flow rate of 100 litres/
mm. Be careful, the air consumption of your tool must be higher than the minimum priming rate of your lubricator. A shut-off valve must be placed
upstream.
