of employer and in accordance with the requirements of hygiene and safety. Service and maintenance of the pneumatic tool should be carried out according to the recommendations
of the manual, to avoid the unnecessary increase of noise level. If the pneumatic tool has a muffl er, you should always make sure that it is correctly mounted when you use the tool.
Select, maintain and replace worn inserted tools according to the recommendations of the manual. This will allow to avoid the unnecessary increase in noise.
Risks of vibrations
Exposure to vibration may cause permanent damage to the nerves and blood supply to the hands and arms. You should stay away from the screw driver sockets. You should
wear warm clothing when working at low temperatures and you should keep your hands warm and dry. If you experience numbness, tingling, pain or skin whitening in the fi ngers
and hands, you should discontinue the use of pneumatic tool, and then inform your employer and seek medical advice. Operation and maintenance pneumatic tool according to
the recommendations of the manual, will allow to avoid the unnecessary increase of vibration. Do not use worn or ill-fi tting caps, because it can cause a signifi cant increase in the
level of vibration. Select, maintain and replace worn inserted tools according to the recommendations of the manual. It will allow to avoid the unnecessary increase of vibration.
Where it is possible the covering assembly should be used. If it is possible, you should subpart the weight of the tool in a rack, tensioner or equivalent. Hold the tool, with light
but a fi rm grip, taking into account the required reaction forces, because the risk from vibration is ususally much larger, when the grip force is higher. An improperly mounted or
damaged inserted tool can cause an increase in vibration.
Additional safety instructions for pneumatic tools
Air under pressure can cause serious injury:
- always shut off the air supply, drain hose of air pressure and detach tool from air supply, when it is not in use, before changing accessories or performing repairs;
- never direct the air stream at yourself or anyone else.
Hose hitting can cause serious injury. You should always check for damaged or loose hoses and fi ttings. Cold air should be directed away from the hands
Every time when there are used universal screwed connection (claw couplings), you should apply the protecting pins and connectors against the possibility of damage to the
connections between the hoses and between the hose and tool. Do not exceed the maximum air pressure specifi ed for the tool.
Never carry the tool, by holding it by the hose.
OPERATING CONDITIONS
You should make sure that that the source of compressed air allows you to create the proper working pressure and that it provides the required air fl ow. In the case of a too high
air pressure, a reducer should be used together with a safety valve. The pneumatic tool must be powered by the system of a fi lter and lubricator. This will ensure, at the same
time, the air, which is pure and moistured by oil. The state of the fi lter and lubricator should be checked before each use, and possibly clean the fi lter or refi ll shortage of oil in the
lubricator. This will ensure proper operation of the tool and will extend its service life.
If you use any additional handles or supporting racks, you should make sure, that the tool is mounted correctly and securely.
You should adopt an appropriate posture to counteract the normal or unexpected movement of the tool, caused by its torque.
Be careful of your work surroundings, the grinder machine can easily cut through something.
Do not use any grinding wheels and tools designed for grinding the their surface side, for cutting.
Do not use any cutting wheels or wheels for milling.
Self-mounting grinding wheels should be concentric located on the grinder pad.
When you turn off the grinder, your should wait with its stacking, until a complete stop to the rotating tool.
Before the installation of additional equipment, your should make sure the maximum speed of the equipment is higher than the speed of the grinder. Do not use any equipment with
handles of other dimensions than those specifi ed in the instructions. Insert tool must be fi rmly and securely mounted in the tool holder. Do not use reduction rings and sleeves, in
order to match the diameter of the tool spindle and grinding wheel.
Abrasive element of the getting wheel should be stored and used in accordance with its manufacturer's instructions. Do not use damaged equipment. Equipment with any faults
must be replaced immediately to new and effi cient. Check the status of the spindle and tool holders for wear or damage.
Do not operate the grinder in a place with a high risk of explosion. The sparks, which are produced during operation, can cause a fi re.
After mounting the grinding wheel you should run it for about 30 seconds in a safe position. Immediately stop the device, if you observe a large vibration or other defects in the
grinder behavior.
Any irregularities must be removed before the next launch of the grinder.
You should make sure that the grinding speed is not greater than the speed which is specifi ed on the rating plate.
During processing of certain materials, poisonous or combustible dusts and fumes can be created. Work in well ventilated areas and use personal protective equipment.
When you are selecting safeguard measures you should take into account the type of workpiece.
You should make sure, that sparks and debris created during operation do not cause any hazards.
