Safety Precautions The Bycon Floor Grinder has been designed to minimize noise, vibration levels and to provide maximum operator safety. However, incorrect use of the grinder may cause serious injury and therefore the following precautions must be taken: 1.Do not use the grinder for longer than prescribed in your local environmental working regulations, as the noise load from extensive daily use may result in hearing damage.
Use engineering controls to control dust, mist and fumes at the source wherever possible.Use good work practices and follow the recommendations of the manufacturers/suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and trade associations.Water should be used for dust suppression when wet grinding/cutting/drilling is feasible.When the hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot be eliminated,the operator and any bystanders should always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for the material being used.
Check the security of the adjustable folding handle latch periodically. The wheel bearings use sealed bearings and require no regular greasing. Parts Diagram Code Description Drawing No. .FG10-001 Handle .FG10-002 Upper arm SHMDJ71501 .FG10-003 Switch assembly .FG10-004...
