3.4 Careful handling and use of flange-
mounted motors
a) Do not force the device. Work with the flange-
mounted motor in the stated power range.
b) Do not use a flange-mounted motorwith a
defective switch. Flange-mounted motors that can
no longer be switched on or off are dangerous and
must be repaired immediately.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments or changing
accessories, or.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the flange-mounted motor accidentally.
d) Store idle flange-mounted motors out of the
reach of children. Do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Flange-
mounted motors are dangerous when used by
inexperienced personnel.
e) Carefully maintain the flange-mounted
motor. Check that the moving parts are
functioning properly and do not jam, that there
is no breakage of parts or any other condition
that may affect the flange-mounted motor's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained flange-mounted motors.
f) Use the flange-mounted motor in accordance
with these instructions. Take the working
conditions into consideration. Using flange-
mounted motors for applications other than those
intended can lead to dangerous situations.
3.5 Service
a) Have the flange-mounted motor serviced by
a qualified repair person using only genuine
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety
of the flange-mounted motor is maintained.
4. Special Safety Instructions
This flange-mounted motor must only be
operated, if it was safely installed in a machine
/ system and fixed.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
The flange-mounted motor must not be used as
hand-held power tool.
Applications for which the flange-mounted motor
was not designed may create a hazard and cause
personal injury.
The flange-mounted motor has no restart
protection. Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch
the tool off when the plug is removed from the mains
socket or if there has been a power cut.
The rated speed of the powered machine /
system must be at least equal to the maximum
speed marked on the flange-mounted motor.
Components running faster than their rated speed
can break and fly apart.
The system manufacturer itself carries the
responsibility to create operating instructions
for the system.
10
The system manufacturer itself carries the
responsibility to guarantee the safety of the
system.
Wear personal protective equipment. Use a
face shield, safety goggles or safety goggles
depending on the application. As appropriate,
wear a dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves
and a workshop apron capable of stopping
small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye
protection must be capable of stopping flying debris
generated by various operations. The dust mask or
respirator must be capable of filtering particles
generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure
to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
Position the cord clear of rotating parts.
After changing accessories or settings on the
tool, you must securely tighten the collet chuck
nuts, the chuck and any other clamping
elements. Loose clamping elements may slip
unexpectedly and result in loss of control over the
power tool. Unsecured, rotating components may
then be ejected with considerable force.
Regularly clean the flange-mounted motor's air
vents. The motor's fan will draw dust inside the
housing and excessive accumulation of powdered
metal may cause electrical hazards.
4.1 Additional Safety Instructions:
WARNING – Always wear protective
goggles.
Do not touch the rotating spindle.
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, changing tools, carrying out
maintenance or cleaning.
Use of a fixed extractor system is recommended.
Always install an RCD with a maximum trip current
of 30 mA upstream. When the machine is shut down
by the RCD, it must be checked and cleaned. See
Section 8. Cleaning.
Reducing dust exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool
may contain chemicals known to cause
cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some of these
substances include: lead (in paint containing lead),
mineral dust (from bricks, concrete etc.), additives
used for wood treatment (chromate, wood
preservatives), some wood types (such as oak or
beech dust), metals, asbestos.
The risk from exposure to such substances will
depend on how long you or bystanders are being
exposed.
Do not let particles enter the body.
Do the following to reduce exposure to these
substances: ensure good ventilation of the
workplace and wear appropriate protective
equipment, such as respirators able to filter
microscopically small particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
