Care And Maintenance; Environmental Protection; Technical Specifications - Metabo DW 125 Original Instructions Manual

Abrasive cutting:
always work against the run of the disc
(see illustration). Otherwise there is
the danger of the machine kicking
back from the cut out of control. Guide
the machine evenly at a speed suit-
able for the material being processed. Do not tilt,
apply excessive force or sway from side to side.

9. Care and Maintenance

Danger! Disconnect the compressed air con-
nection before carrying out any work.
Danger! Repair and maintenance work other
than described in this section should only be
carried out by qualified specialists.
- Carry out regular maintenance to ensure the
safety of the air tool.
- Check that all screw fittings are seated securely,
and tighten if necessary.
- Clean the filter in the compressed air connection
at least once a week.
- It is recommended that you install a pressure
reducer with an air-water separator and lubricator
upstream of the air tool.
- If a large amount of air or oil is escaping, check the
air tool and have it maintained if necessary. (see
Section 11.)
- Check the rotational speed regularly and after
every use. Also carry out a simple check on vibra-
tion emission.
- Regularly check the spindle, thread and clamping
devices for wear and tolerance for accommo-
dating mounted tools.
- Avoid contact with dangerous substances that
have collected on the tool. Wear suitable personal
protective equipment and take appropriate meas-
ures to remove any dangerous substances before
maintenance.

12. Environmental Protection

The sanding dust generated may contain
hazardous materials: do not dispose of this dust
with household waste, but at a special collection
point for hazardous waste.
Observe national regulations on environmentally
compatible disposal and on the recycling of disused
air tools, packaging and accessories. You must not
cause risks to people or the environment.

Emission values
Using these values, you can estimate the
emissions from this tool and compare these with the
values emitted by other tools. The actual values
may be higher or lower, depending on the particular
application and the condition of the tool or mounted
tools. In estimating the values, you should also
include work breaks and periods of low use. Based
on the estimated emission values, specify protec-
tive measures for the user - for example, any organ-
isational steps that must be put in place.
