Superabrasive
Propane changes into a gas, is ‐44
unprotected skin to propane gas or liquid could result in
frostbite injury.
All new cylinders should be vented and purged of air per
manufacturer's instructions before use. Never bleed propane
cylinders indoors.
STORAGE CYLINDERS
When not in use, propane cylinders always should be stored
outside in an upright position in a secure, tamperproof, steel
mesh storage cabinet. This cabinet may be located next to
the building but with at least five
feet (1.5 m) of space between the cabinet and the nearest
building opening (door or window), also away from heat
and direct sunlight.
Do not install the cabinet near a stairway or street elevator
as vented propane gas will seek a lower level since it is
heavier than air and could find its way into the basement of
the building. Do not store cylinders full or empty inside a
building or inside a vehicle. Although it is unlikely that
propane will vent from a stored cylinder, if it should, the
vapor could come in contact with an ignition source such as
a spark from a power tool or other appliance and create a
flash fire.
Do not smoke or use a device with an open flame when
handling or transporting propane cylinders.
3. HANDLING AND TRANSPORTATION
ADJUSTING THE HANDLE
The Handle on the frame is
adjustable in height and allows the
operator to work in a correct and
safe posture (Fig. 3.1, Fig. 3.2, Fig.
3.3). Choose the upright position to
move easy the machine (Fig.3.3).
The machines manufactured after
2013 are with changed locking of
the handle on the frame.The
unlocking is by pulling the handle (
fig.3.2.1)The locking is
automatically under action of the
spring. Fig.3.2.2 shows all possible
position of the handle.
To avoid turning the head during
transport should be unscrewed the
(butterfly, wing‐headed) screw and
move the lever from the position
shown in Fig.3.4a to position
Fig.3.4b.
When the machine operates the lever must be in position shown in Fig.3.4a, in order to rotate the head when change the tool.

TRANSPORTING CYLINDERS
When transporting cylinders to a propane dealer or to a job,
make sure the cylinders are securely fastened and standing in
an upright position with the service valve closed.
A cylinder rattling around in the back of a vehicle and
banging into other objects constitutes a hazard. Avoid
dropping or banging cylinders against sharp objects.
The propane cylinders are sturdily constructed but a series
of hard jolts could cause damage.
Please note that any cylinder that has been filled is always
considered full, no matter how little propane gas remains
in it. This is because even when all liquid has evaporated
into vapor there is still some propane gas vapor left in the
cylinder. Because this remaining fuel is flammable, an
empty cylinder should be treated with the same careful
procedures as one that is filled to the 80% level with liquid
propane. The only time that a cylinder is considered
empty is when it is new, before it has been filled with
propane.
When transporting a propane powered floor machine, the
propane cylinder may be strapped onto the machine as
long as the machine itself is firmly secured in the vehicle.
Of course, spare cylinders should always be secured in an
upright position.
