Electrical Safety - Ferm AGM1086 Traducción Del Manual Original

• Only use grinding discs that are recommended
by the manufacturer. Only use guards that are
specifically designed for the grinding disc.
• Only use grinding discs that are suitable for the
application. For example: do not grind with the
side of a cut-off disc.
• Do not use the machine without the guard.
Securely mount the guard for maximum safety.
Make sure that the user is protected from the
grinding disc as much as possible.
• Make sure that the workpiece is properly
supported or fixed.
• Wear safety goggles. Wear hearing protection.
Wear a dust mask. If necessary, use other
protective means, such as safety gloves, safety
shoes, etc. Risk of personal injury.
• Keep bystanders away from the work area.
Make sure that all persons in the work area
wear protective equipment. Risk of personal
injury.
• Keep the mains cable away from the rotating
grinding disc. If the mains cable touches the
rotating grinding disc, your hands or arms may
come in contact with the grinding disc.
Risk of personal injury.
• Hold the machine by the insulated gripping
surfaces where the grinding disc may contact
hidden wiring or the mains cable. If the grinding
disc contacts a 'live' wire, the exposed metal
parts of the machine can also become 'live'.
Risk of electric shock.
• Do not use the machine while carrying it at your
side. Risk of personal injury.
• Do not use the machine on workpieces
requiring a maximum grinding depth that
exceeds the maximum grinding depth of the
grinding disc.
• Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Risk of electric shock.
• Do not use the machine near flammable
materials. Risk of fire.
• Do not work materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.
• Do not work metal with a magnesium content of
more than 80%.
• Beware that the grinding disc continues to
rotate for a short period after switching off the
machine. Do not attempt to bring the grinding
disc to a standstill yourself.
• Never put the machine down on a table or a
workbench before it has been switched off.
6
• Regularly clean the ventilation slots.
Risk of electric shock.
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound
or twisted grinding disc, which causes the machine
to lift up and out of the workpiece towards the user.
If the grinding disc is pinched or bound tightly by
the cut, the grinding disc jams and the machine
is rapidly driven back towards the user. If the
grinding disc is twisted in the cut, the back edge of
the grinding disc can dig into the top surface of the
workpiece, which causes the grinding disc to climb
out of the cut and jump back towards the user.
Kickback is the result of incorrect use of the
machine and/or incorrect operating procedures
or conditions. Kickback can be avoided by taking
proper precautions:
• Firmly hold the machine with both hands.
Position your arms to resist kickback forces.
Position your body to either side of the grinding
disc, but not in line with the grinding disc.
Kickback can cause the grinding disc to jump
backwards. If proper precautions are taken,
kickback forces can be controlled by the user.
• Be extra careful when using the machine on
corners, sharp edges, etc. Make sure that the
grinding disc does not become jammed.
Risk of kickback.
• If the grinding disc jams or if you interrupt a
cut for any reason, release the on/off switch
and hold the machine motionless in the
material until the grinding disc comes to a
complete standstill. Never attempt to remove
the machine from the workpiece or pull the
machine backward while the grinding disc is in
motion. Risk of kickback.
• Do not use blunt or damaged grinding discs.
Unsharpened or incorrectly mounted grinding
discs produce narrow cuts, which causes
excessive friction and kickback and increases
the risk of the grinding discs becoming
jammed.
• Do not use toothed saw blades. Do not use
woodcarving blades for saw chains.
Risk of personal injury.

Electrical safety

Always check that the voltage of the
power supply corresponds to the voltage
on the rating plate.
