that a specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm
Vibration Syndrome.
Health surveillance.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be
modified accordingly.
Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry
and maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the Correct
Use and Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the HSC
website www.hse.gov.uk - Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.

4. OPERATION
4.1.
Air Supply
‰
WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90 psi while operating the grinder. Too high an air pressure and unclean air
will shorten the product life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury.
4.1.1. Recommended hook-up procedure is shown in fig.2.
Ensure grinder air valve (or trigger) is in "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
4.1.2. You will require an air pressure of 90psi, and an air flow according to specification.
4.1.3. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the grinder.
4.1.4. Clean air inlet filter weekly.
4.1.5. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres).
4.1.6. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
4.2.
Couplings.
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the grinder. To overcome this, connect a leader hose to
the grinder. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose.

4.3.
Operating
‰
WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply safety instructions.
4.3.1. Using the tools provided fit the grinding disc as shown in fig.3. DO NOT have air supply connected.
Ensure that only type 27 or type 28 grinding discs are used fig.4.
Ensure disc size, operating speed, and type are suitable for use with grinder and material to be ground.
4.3.2. To start, hold firmly and push the trigger locking lever forward whilst depressing trigger.
