Safety Warnings Specific for Wire Brushing
Operations:
a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even
during ordinary operation. Do not overstress the wires by
applying excessive load to the brush.
The wire bristles can easily
penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
b) Allow brushes to run at operating speed for at least one
minute before using them. During this time no one is to
stand in front or in line with the brush.
Loose bristles or wires
will be discharged during the run-in time.
c) Direct the discharge of the spinning wire brush away from
you.
Small particles and tiny wire fragments may be discharged
at high velocity during the use of these brushes and may become
imbedded in your skin.
