DFG-SERIES SURFACE GRINDERS OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL REV #4 (05/28/09) PAGE 33
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATIONS
DANGER
AS SOON AS THE CENTRIFUGAL CLUTCH
ASSEMBLY BECOMES ENGAGED, THE
OPERATOR MUST BE IN A POSITION TO
ASSUME DIRECT AND FULL CONTROL OF THE
SURFACE GRINDER. FAILURE TO ASSUME
DIRECT AND FULL CONTROL CAN RESULT IN
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY.
DANGER
DO NOT OPERATE A GASOLINE ENGINE IN
CLOSED SPACES WITHOUT PROPER
VENTILATION. GASOLINE ENGINES PRODUCE
CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES. BREATHING
CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES CAN RESULT IN
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY. EXCESSIVE LEVELS OF CARBON
MONOXIDE CAN CAUSE DEATH.
4) Stop the engine in accordance with the
instructions as described in the material supplied
by the engine manufacturer.
OPERATING THE SURFACE GRINDER ON THE
JOBSITE.
Application: All Models.
DANGER
THE GRINDING PROCESS PRODUCES
EXCESSIVE NOISE, VIBRATION AND FLYING
DEBRIS. ALL OPERATORS AND WORK
PERSONNEL IN THE VICINITY OF THE SURFACE
GRINDER MUST WEAR APPROPRIATE SAFETY
EYE WEAR AND HEARING PROTECTION
DEVICES. OTHER SAFETY APPAREL AND/OR
PROCEDURES, DEEMED NECESSARY BY
SUPERVISORY PERSONNEL MUST ALSO BE
WORN AND/OR PRACTICED BY ALL
APPROPRIATE PERSONNEL.
DANGER
EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN
OPERATING THE SURFACE GRINDER IN THE
VICINITY OF DECK INSERTS, PIPES, COLUMNS,
OPENINGS, LARGE CRACKS, UTILITY OUTLETS
OR ANY OBJECT PROTRUDING FROM THE
SURFACE. CONTACT WITH SUCH OBJECTS
CAN LEAD TO LOSS OF MACHINE CONTROL,
RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
DANGER
DO NOT OPERATE A GASOLINE ENGINE IN
CLOSED SPACES WITHOUT PROPER
VENTILATION. GASOLINE ENGINES PRODUCE
CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES. BREATHING
CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES CAN RESULT IN
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY. EXCESSIVE LEVELS OF CARBON
MONOXIDE CAN CAUSE DEATH
1) The SURFACE GRINDER incorporates counter-
rotating discs for mounting a wide variety of
multi-accessory attachments. The
counterrotating action results in a "self
propelled" effect that substantially enhances
machine control and reduces fatigue as long as
the multi-accessory attachment does not come
in direct contact with a protruding obstruction
from the floor. Direct contact with such an
obstruction can result in rapid and jerky
directional movement of the machine. In most
operating situations, direct contact with a
protruding obstruction from the floor will result in
the multi-accessory atta
chment becoming
dislodged from the counter-rotating disc. This
occurrence is intended to protect the SURFACE
GRINDER from excessive damage and allow
the operator to remain in proper control of the
machine.
DANGER
ALWAYS MAINTAIN PROPER CONTROL OF THE
SURFACE GRINDER. IF AN OPERATOR LOOSES
CONTROL OF THE MACHINE, A "RUNAWAY"
SURFACE GRINDER CAN RESULT IN
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY. BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUE
OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS OF THE
SURFACE GRINDER, THERE IS NO PROVISION
FOR THE ELECTRIC MOTOR/ENGINE TO
AUTOMATICALLY STOP IF THE OPERATOR
FAILS TO MAINTAIN PROPER CONTROL.
DANGER
WHEN OPERATING THE SURFACE GRINDER ON
ABOVE GROUND FLOOR LEVELS, EXERCISE
EXTREME CAUTION TO PREVENT LOSS OF
CONTROL THAT COULD ALLOW THE MACHINE
AND/OR OPERATOR TO FALL DOWN TO
LOWER LEVELS. SUCH AN OCCURRENCE CAN
