the exposed metal parts of the electrical tool "under voltage"
and can cause an electrical shock for the operator.
Position the cable far from the rotation accessory. If control
is lost, the cable can be cut or twisted and your hand or arm
could be pulled into the rotation accessory.
Never put the electrical tool back before the accessory
has completely stopped. The rotation accessory can be
pressed on the surface with the electrical tool put out of
your control.
Do not operate the electrical tool while carrying it at the
side. Accidental contact with the rotation accessory can get
your clothes entangled and attract the accessory towards you.
Regularly clean the fan openings of the electrical tool. The
motor fan will attract the dust into the housing; excess dust
accumulation can cause electrical
hazards. Do not operate the electrical tool in the proximity
of flammable material. The sparks can ignite these materials.
Do not use accessories that need liquid coolants. The use
of water or other liquid coolants can cause electrocution or
electrical shock
SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS
Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet or
its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any
loose attachment strings. Loose and spinning attachment
strings can entangle your fingers or snag on the workpiece.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL
OPERATIONS
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating
wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory. Pinching or
snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which
in turn causes the uncontrolled tool to be forced in the direction
opposite of the accessory's rotation at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the
workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch
point can dig into the surface of the material causing the wheel
to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or
away from the operator, depending on direction of the wheel's
movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also
break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the tool and position your body
and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always
use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum control
over kickback or torque reaction during start-up. The
operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if
proper precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.
Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where tool will move
if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in direction
opposite to the wheel's movement at the point of snagging.
d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners,
sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the
rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed
saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss
of control.
COMMISSIONING
WARNING Observe the mains voltage! The mains
voltage should correspond the rated voltage of the
electrical tool.
HAZARD Before performing any intervention on the
electrical tool, unplug the same from mains outlet.
TOOL ASSEMBLY
Position the cap (6) on the gearbox such that the holes for mounting
the screws (5) are aligned with those on the gearbox (8).
Screw the side handle (5). Side handle may be positioned to
the right or to the left of the equipment.
ASSEMBLY / DISASSEMBLY OF ACCESSORIES
ASSEMBLY
PLATE PAD HOLDER
Screw plate pad holder (7) over spindle shaft (4) while
preventing it from moving or stop movement by enabling lock
button (10).
PAD
Apply pressure on polishing pad to join pad to plate.
DISASSEMBLY
PLATE PAD HOLDER
- Lock the spindle by pressing button (10), while at the same
time rotating the pad until it locks position.
- dismount the pad.
Never press the button to lock the pad or pas until the
tool has stopped moving and is perfectly stationary;
the gear box or the push button pin could be broken
and the guarantee would be invalidated.
- PAD
Tear off the worn pad and fit the new pad (see ASSEMBLY).
BEFORE COMMISSIONING
Before putting the machine into operation ensure that:
- the package is intact and there is no sign of damage due to
transport and storage;
- the machine is complete; check the number and the type of
parts to make sure they comply with those in this guide;
- the energy source complies with machine rated features;
- the power cable and its plug are in perfect condition;
- the ON/OFF (2) switch is effective and works with the plug
removed;
- all machine parts are correctly installed and free of damage;
- the ventilation slits (11) are not obstructed.
START AND STOPPING
WARNING: after power cutout, if the ON/OFF switch is
in the ON position, it must be released (see Stop).
LH19E
- Starting: push the lever of the switch (9) towards the body
of the tool; if the tool is to be locked in the ON position,
press button (2) at the same time and keep it pressed while
releasing lever (9), thus locking the switch.
- Stopping: release the lever of the switch or, if locked in
position, push the lever to release the lock button.
