Risks Due To Repetitive Movements - Parkside PDAP 75 A1 Translation Of The Original Instructions

■ Suitable safety goggles must be worn; wearing protective gloves
and safety clothing is recommended.
■ Check the grinding disc before every use. Do not use if this is
cracked, broken or has been dropped.
■ Avoid direct contact with the movable grinding disc, to avoid
squashing or cutting your hands or other parts of the body.
Always wear suitable gloves to protect your hands.
■ Never use the machine without an abrasive attachment.
■ There is a risk of electrostatic discharge if the machine is used on
plastic and other non-conductive materials.
■ Dust and vapours created by the grinding and sanding can cause
a potentially explosive atmosphere. Always use a dust extraction
or suppression system suitable for the material being worked.

Risks due to repetitive movements

■ When using a sander or polisher to perform work-related activi-
ties, operators may experience uncomfortable sensations in their
hands and arms, as well as in the neck and shoulders or other
parts of the body.
■ When using a sander or a polisher, the operator should adopt a
comfortable posture whilst ensuring a secure hold and avoiding
awkward postures or positions in which it is difficult to maintain
balance. The operator should change positions during the course
of long-lasting tasks. This can be helpful in the prevention of dis-
comfort and fatigue.
■ If the operator notices symptoms such as persistent or recurring
illness, discomfort, throbbing, pain, tingling, burning or stiffness,
these indications should not be ignored.
In this case, the operator should consult a suitably qualified
physician.
