RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

2)Productivity rates with the various multi- accessory attachments can be increased with the addition of external weight being applied to the area over the counter-rotating discs. FIGURE 36. Maximum allowable external weight is 300 lbs. Exceeding this figure can result in permanent structural damage to the SURFACE GRINDER. Provisions for securing the weight by the means of strapping or other, appropriate methods is provided.

DANGER

DO NOT OPERATE THE SURFACE GRINDER WITHOUT ALL EXTERNAL WEIGHT PROPERLY SECURED TO THE MAIN FRAME. A SUDDEN CHANGE IN MOVEMENT OR DIRECTION CAN ALLOW THE UNSECURED WEIGHT TO FALL OFF THE SURFACE GRINDER, RESULTING IN LOSS OF MACHINE CONTROL, PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY. THIS PROCEDURE IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT WHEN OPERATING THE SURFACE GRINDER ON FLOORS AND/OR SURFACES ABOVE GROUND LEVEL.

3)Proper operator posture and stance will enhance operational safety and overall productivity. FIGURE 38. For most job applications, operate the engine at maximum, governed speed. Consult the material supplied by the engine manufacturer and the SPECIFICATIONS section for specific information.

4)The wide variety of potential work surface materials along with the corresponding variety of job site environments, makes it impossible to develop a standardized operating procedure for the SURFACE GRINDER. Use of the SURFACE GRINDER will require constant trial and error testing until satisfactory results are achieved. Experience gained over time and common sense will help minimize the amount of necessary testing. Many factors will directly affect the operating parameters and/or techniques utilized for a specialized job application. Some of these factors include:

a) Work surface material yield and tensile values. As a general rule, these values will determine material removal rate per unit of time. Materials with high yield and tensile values will characteristically resist/limit material penetration. For such materials, the accepted procedure is to make a number of multiple passes over the work surface rather than attempt to make a single, deep pass. The net effect is to actually increase productivity: more material removed in less time. Other added benefits to this technique are decreased vibration, less operator fatigue and increased component service life.

b.Higher material removal rates can sometimes be achieved by making a series of shallow passes 90 degrees to each other to form a waffle like pattern. This technique is especially useful when removing deeper accumulations of rubber, paint, dirt debris, etc. from industrial floors.
