machine. Personnel must also read all supplemental manuals from other
manufacturers.
From time to time the working practices of the operators are to be checked by a
supervisor, especially regarding awareness of safety and hazards.
Observe all applicable local, state and Federal safety regulations that pertain to
the equipment, the products being operated and the substances being removed
from the surface.
Operators must tie back long hair and avoid wearing loose clothing or jewelry,
including rings. There is a risk of injury by items getting caught, or being drawn
into moving machinery.
The use of appropriate gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when
working with this machine.
Follow the OSHA and other applicable regulations for approved respiratory
protection standards when operating this machine in a dry operation with a dust
collector to avoid possible airborne contaminants. Grinding and cutting
concrete produces dust that may generate airborne respirable crystalline silica
which can lead to silicosis and death.
Do not use in dry operation without an approved dust collector system to
reduce or eliminate the escape of potentially hazardous or nuisance dust into
the environment.
All safety and hazard notices at or on the machine must be kept complete and
legible.
If safety-critical changes occur to the machine or its working method, the
machine must be shut down immediately. The cause of the fault must be
established and remedied.
This applies in particular to the fitting and adjustment of safety devices.
Use personnel protection equipment as required by OSHA and
other local regulations! Take notice of all safety and hazard
notices on the machine!
