Grinding or other use of this tool may produce hazardous fumes
and/or dust. To avoid adverse health effects utilize adequate
ventilation and/or a respirator. Respirators should be selected,
fitted, used and maintained in accordance with Occupational
Safety and Health Administration and other applicable regula-
tions. Read the material safety data sheet of any materials
involved in the grinding process.
Cleco grinders are designed to operate on 90 psig (6.2 bar) max.
air pressure. If the tool is properly sized and applied, higher air
pressure is unnecessary. Excessive air pressure increases the
loads and stresses on the tool parts and may result in breakage.
Installation of a filter-regulator-lubricator in the air supply line is
highly recommended.
Never use the air hose for supporting, lifting, or lowering the tool.
Use a safety line or cable on the tool when working in elevated
areas.
Before tool is connected to air supply, check throttle for proper
operation, i.e., throttle moves freely and returns to closed posi-
tion. Being careful not endanger adjacent personnel, clear air
hose of accumulated dust and moisture. Use protective barriers
where necessary — hot sparks can burn. Barriers also help
reduce noise levels. Before removing tool from service or chang-
ing accessories, make sure air line is shut off and drained of air
to prevent the tool from operating if the throttle is accidently
engaged. The use of a self-relieving valve for this purpose is
highly recommended.
The wheel guard is designed to prevent serious injury to the
operator in the event of wheel failure and must not be modified
in any way. Any wheel guard that is damaged or bent must be
replaced.
NOTE: The grinder must be held so that the opening in the guard
is away from the operator.
For your safety and the safety of others, read and understand the
safety recommendations before operating any grinder.
Always wear protective equipment and clothing.
Caution: Faceshields do not provide unlimited protection against
flying particles and are not to be considered as eye protection.
ANSI Z87.1 states that separate eyewear shall be used. For
additional information on eye protection, refer to Federal OSHA
Regulations, 29 CFR, Section 1910.133, Eye and Face Protec-
tion, and ANSI Z87.1, Occupational and Educational Eye and
Face Protection. This standard is available from the American
National Standards Institute, Inc., 11 West 42nd street, New
York, NY 10036.
Hearing protection is recommended in high noise areas (above
85 dBA). Close proximity of additional tools, reflective surfaces,
process noises, and resonant structures can substantially con-
tribute to the sound level experienced by the operator. Excessive
air pressure (greater than 90 psig) or worn components can also
increase sound level emitted by the tool. Proper hearing conser-
vation measures, including annual audiograms and training in
the use and fit of hearing protection devices may be necessary.
For additional information on hearing protection, refer to Federal
OSHA Regulations, 29 CFR, Section 1910.95, Occupational
Noise Exposure, and American National Standards Institute,
ANSI S12.6, Hearing Protectors.
• Gloves and other protective clothing should be worn as
required.
• Do not wear clothing that may restrict movement, become
entangled or in any way interfere with the safe operation
of grinders.
