Always wear safety goggles and hearing protection. If desired or required also
use another kind of protection like for example an apron or helmet.
Ensure that mounted wheels and points are fitted in accordance with the
manufacturer’s
instructions.
Ensure that blotters are used when they are provided with the bonded
abrasive product and when they are required.
If a guard is supplied with the tool never use the tool without such a guard.
For tools intended to be fitted with threaded whole wheel, ensure that the
thread in the wheel is long enough to accept the spindle length.
Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear when working in dusty
conditions. If it should become necessary to clear dust, first disconnect the
tool from the mains supply (use non metallic objects) and avoid damaging
internal parts.
Though poor conditions of the electrical mains, shortly voltage drops can
appear when starting the equipment. This can influence other equipment (eq.
blinking of a lamp). lf the mains impedance Zmax <0,348 Ohm such
disturbances are not expected. (in case of need, you may contact your local
supply authority for further information).
