Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and

other materials with silica in their composition may give

off dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a

basic component of sand, quartz, brick clay, granite and

numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or

substantial inhalation of airborne crystalline silica can

cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including

silicosis.Inaddition, California and some other

authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica as a

substance known to cause cancer. When cutting such

materials, always follow the respiratory precautions

mentioned above.

WARNING

Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and

other materials can generate dust, mists and fumes

containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal

injury or illness, such as respiratory disease, cancer,

birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are

unfamiliar with the risks associated with the particular

process and/or material being cut or the composition of

the tool being used, review the material safety data

sheet and/or consult your employer, the material

manufacturer/supplier, governmental agencies such as

OSHA and NIOSH and other sources on hazardous

materials. California and some other authorities, for

instance, have published lists of substances known to

cause cancer, reproductive toxicity,or other harmful

effects.

Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where

possible. In this regard use good work practices and

follow the recommendations of the manufacturers or

suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and trade

associations.Water should be used for dust

suppression when wet cutting is feasible. When the

hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot

be eliminated, the operator and any bystanders should

always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for

the materials being used.

ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY/DECOMMISSIONING

NOTICE

Decommissioning is a controlled process used to safely

retire a piece of equipment that is no longer serviceable.

If the equipment poses an unacceptable and unrepairable

safety risk due to wear or damage or is no longer cost

effective to maintain (beyond life-cycle reliability) and is to

be decommissioned (demolition and dismantlement), be

sure to follow the rules below.



Contact your country’s Department of Public Works or

recycling agency in your area and arrange for proper

disposal of any electrical components, waste or oil

associated with this equipment.



When the life cycle of this equipment is over, it is

recommended that the trowel frame and all other metal

parts be sent to a recycling center.

Metal recycling involves the collection of metal from

discarded products and its transformation into raw

materials to use in manufacturing new products.

Recyclers and manufacturers alike promote the process

of recycling metal. Using a metal recycling center

promotes energy cost savings.
