increase in noise.
■ If the grinder has a silencer, always ensure that it is in
place and in good working order whenever the grinder
is being operated.
■ Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted
tool as recommended in the instructions handbook to
prevent an unnecessary increase in noise.

vIBRAtION hAzARDs

The information for use shall draw attention to vibration
hazards that have not been eliminated by design and
construction and remain as a residual vibration risk. It shall
enable employers to identify the circumstances in which
the operator is likely to be at risk from vibration exposure.
If the vibration emission value obtained using ISO 28927-
1 for angle and vertical grinders, ISO 28927-4 for straight
grinders or ISO 20643 does not adequately represent the
vibration emission in the intended uses (and foreseeable
misuses) of the machine, additional information and/or
warnings shall be supplied to enable the risks arising from
vibration to be assessed and managed.
■ Exposure to vibration can cause disabling damage to
the nerves and blood supply of the hands and arms.
■ Wear warm clothing whenever working in cold
conditions and keep your hands warm and dry.
■ If you experience numbness, tingling, pain or whitening
of the skin in your fingers or hands, stop using the
grinder, tell your employer and consult a physician.
■ Operate and maintain the grinder as recommended in
the instructions handbook to prevent an unnecessary
increase in vibration levels.
■ Do not allow the inserted tool to chatter on the work
piece as this is likely to cause a substantial increase
in vibration.
■ Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted
tool as recommended in the instructions handbook to
prevent an unnecessary increase in vibration levels.
■ Support the mass of the tool in a stand, tensioner or
balancer, if possible.
■ Hold the tool with a light but safe grip, taking account
of the required hand reaction forces because the risk
arising from vibration is generally greater where the
grip force is higher.
■ Use blotters where they are provided with the bonded
abrasive product.

■ Air under pressure can cause severe injury.
■ Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure
and disconnect tool from air supply whenever not in
use, before changing accessories or where making
repairs.
■ Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
■ Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always
check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
■ Whenever universal twist couplings (claw couplings)
are used, lock-pins shall be installed and whip check
safety cables shall be used to safeguard against
possible hose-to-tool and hose-to-hose connection
failure.
■ Do not exceed the maximum air pressure stated on
the tool.
■ Never carry an air tool by the hose.
■ The spare parts should be not changed by the user.
■ Regularly check the spindle and wheel fixation for
wear.
