JDanger of fire from flying
sparks! Grinding metal creates fly- ing sparks. For this reason, always
make sure that nobody is placed in any dan- ger and that there are no inflammable materi- als near the working area.
mWarning! Noxious fumes!
Working with harmful / noxious dusts represents a risk to the health of the person operating the device and to anyone near the work area.
JWear protective glasses, hearing protection, dust protection mask and protective gloves.
JDanger of burns! The workpiece gets hot during grinding. Never touch the part you are grinding. Allow the workpiece to cool suffi- ciently first. When grinding for longer periods, stop grinding from time to time and allow the workpiece to cool before continuing. Do not operate the device for continuous periods ex- ceeding 30 minutes.
JThe double grinding machine is intended for dry grinding of the surfaces of metal objects. The device may only be used for dry grinding.
JDo not grind materials containing asbestos. As- bestos is a known carcinogen.
JDo not use damaged grinding wheels.
JOnly use grinding wheels with details that cor- respond with those given on the device rating plate. The circumferential speed should be equal to or greater than the value given on the device rating plate.
JAdjust the eye guard mounts (spark deflectors) and the eye guards periodically so that wear on the grinding wheels can be evened out. Keep the gap as small as possible.
JAvoid contact with the moving grinding wheel.
JNever leave the device working unattended.
JNever use the device for a purpose for which it was not intended.
JBefore you insert the mains plug into the sock- et, always check that the device is switched off.
