Using An Angle Die Grinder Continued
12)Always shut off the air supply to the tool and depress the trigger to release air from the feed hose before fitting, adjusting or removing the working attachment.
13)Check hoses and fittings regularly for wear. Replace if necessary. Do not carry the tool by its hose. Ensure the hand is removed from the on/off trigger when carrying the tool with the air supply connected.
14)Take care against entanglement of moving tool parts with clothing, ties, hair, cleaning rags, etc. This will cause the body to be drawn towards the tool and can be very dangerous.
15)Safe working practices and observe all relevant legal requirements when installing, using or maintaining the tool.
16)Only install the tool when an easily accessible and easily operable on/off switch is incorporated in the air supply.
17)Take care that the tool exhaust air does not
cause problems or blow onto another person.
18)Never lay a tool down unless the working attachment has stopped moving.
PRE-START CHECKLIST (FIG. 1, PG. 2)
•Drain water from air compressor tank and condensation from air lines. (Please refer to air compressor’s operation manual.)
•Lubricate the tool. (Please refer to the “Maintenance” section in the manual.)
•Select the required attachment. The mandrel of the attachment must match the size of the collet on the air grinder.
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp air hose with hand when installing or disconnenting to prevent hose whip. WARNING: Risk of bursting. Too much air pressure causes
a hazardous risk of bursting. Check the manufacturer’s maximum
pressure rating for air tools and accessories. The regulator output pressure must never exceed the maximum pressure rating.
INSERT TOOL ASSEMBLY (FIG. 1, PG. 2)
