ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATIONS

Assembly

The DFG Series SURFACE GRINDER is shipped from the factory secured on a specially designed wooden pallet and protected from external damage by a corrugated carton or wood crate. If shipped with

acorrugated carton, the SURFACE GRINDER can be secured to the pallet by wood laths nailed to the pallet body. Remove the carton or crate immediately upon receipt using suitable tools to remove the nails.

REMOVING THE SURFACE GRINDER FROM THE PALLET.

Application: All Models

Tools Required:

1 each, pliers.

1each, claw hammer or a hammer and an appropriate pry bar.

The SURFACE GRINDER is secured to the pallet with steel banding. Using the pliers, cut and remove the banding. The SURFACE GRINDER can then be removed from the pallet.

DANGER

WEAR SAFETY GLASSES AND OTHER APPROPRIATE SAFETY APPAREL WHEN CUTTING THE STEEL BANDING AND/OR

REMOVING THE CORRUGATED/WOOD SHIPPING CRATE.

Visually inspect the shipment for freight damage and/or missing parts. If shipping damage is evident, contact the delivering carrier immediately to arrange for an inspection of the damage by their claims representative. Federal law requires that a claim be filed within a specific time period. If missing parts are detected, notify your dealer who will assist you in obtaining them.

The SURFACE GRINDER is shipped from the factory completely assembled. If ordered with the SURFACE GRINDER, multi-accessory attachments are normally shipped separately to minimize the potential for loss during shipment.

Check all fasteners for proper security. Consult a fastener torque chart for the proper torque value if any fastener is found to require retorquing.

After April 1, 1996 all SURFACE GRINDERS are shipped from the factory with the SG24-1000 Safety

and Dust Shield Assembly Kit included as a standard accessory. The kit is included in a separate package and is not normally installed by factory personnel. The owner and/ or operator (has) have the option to install the skirt assembly for any specific job application. The DFG-1000 Safety and Dust Shield is designed to perform the following job functions:

1)To contain loose materials within the platform area of the SURFACE GRINDER as a direct result of a specific grinding process. This includes materials removed from the surface as well as any slurry mixture utilized to help maximize material removal efficiencies.

2)To provide a method for a vacuum system to help remove airborne dust related materials from within the skirt assembly. Dust related materials are usually created as a result of the grinding process. A specific job application may require the reduction and/or minimization of airborne dust related materials from the atmosphere while the SURFACE GRINDER is being operated. The kit includes a hose and necessary hardware to connect the skirt assembly to the 3 inch diameter vacuum attachment fitting located at the rear of the machine. Use of the kit along with a suitable vacuum system will not completely remove all airborne and loose materials directly from the work surface.

DANGER

THE USE OF THE SG24-1000 SAFETY AND DUST SHIELD ASSEMBLY KIT ALONG WITH A SUITABLE VACUUM SYSTEM TO REMOVE

HAZARDOUS CLASSIFIED, AIRBORNE MATERIALS FROM THE WORK SURFACE WILL NOT ELIMINATE THE REQUIREMENT FOR PROPER SAFETY RELATED EQUIPMENT, OPERATING PLAN AND/OR PROCEDURES.

DANGER

USE OF THE SG24-1000 SAFETY AND DUST SHIELD ASSEMBLY KIT ALONG WITH A SUITABLE VACUUM SYSTEM WILL NOT

COMPLETELY REMOVE ALL LOOSE MATERIALS FROM THE WORK SURFACE. HAZARDOUS CLASSIFIED, LOOSE MATERIALS MUST BE REMOVED FROM THE WORK

SURFACE BY PROCESSES AND/OR PROCEDURES MEETING THE APPLICABLE OSHA AND/OR EPA REQUIREMENTS.
