■
Injury caused by dust
–
Wear appropriate dust control mask with filters
suitable for protecting against particles from the
material being worked on and abrasive particles
from the accessories. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in
the work area. Ensure adequate ventilation.
■
Injury from contact with the attachments
–
The attachment and workpiece will become hot
during use. Wear gloves when changing discs or
touching workpiece. Keep hands away from the
working area at all times. Clamp the workpiece
whenever possible.
■
Injury caused by noise
–
Prolonged exposure to noise will increase the risk
of hearing damage, and the effects are cumulative.
When using power tools for any extended period of
time, wear hearing protection.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent
upon exposure to cold environments. Hereditary factors,
exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work
practices are all thought to contribute to the development
of the these symptoms. There are measures that can be
taken by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of
vibration:
■
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating
the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists
warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor
contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to increase
blood circulation.
■
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of
exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your doctor.
WARNING
Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by prolonged
use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods,
ensure you take regular breaks.
OPERATING TIPS
INSTALLING ACCESSORIES
Insert the shank of the accessory into the collet until
the shank bottoms out, then pull it out 2 mm to allow for
expansion when the accessory gets hot.
BALANCING ACCESSORIES
For precision work, it is important that all accessories
be properly balanced. To balance an accessory, slightly
loosen the collet nut and give the accessory or collet a 1/4
turn. You should be able to tell by the sound and feel if
the accessory is running in balance. Continue adjusting
in this fashion until the best balance is achieved. Replace
accessories if they become damaged or unbalanced.
LEARNING TO USE THE ROTARY TOOL
Hold the pen in your hand and get used to its weight,
balance, and the taper of the housing. This taper permits
the pen to be grasped like a pencil.
