DFG-SERIES SURFACE GRINDERS OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL REV. #3 (07/13/06) PAGE 8
The concept of powered SURFACE GRINDER has been successfully utilized for many years as a practical
solution to many types of surface preparation requirements. The basic concept is proven and well
accepted within the associated marketplaces. Use of a SURFACE GRINDER requires strenuous work
activity. This type of work activity can be considered to be greater in magnitude than that experienced
with the use of many other types of both light construction and lawn and garden related equipment. This
type of work activity should only be attempted by operators of adequate physical size and stature, mental
awareness and physical strength and condition. The body parts most noticeably affected during any
specific process are the arms, hands, wrists, shoulders, lower back and legs. The process can also
produce excessive stress/strain directly to the back muscles, spinal vertebrae and many other body
parts. Back related pain can be a side effect of utilizing a SURFACE GRINDER. An operator with a chronic
back related problem or a history of back and/or other medically related problems should not attempt to
utilize the SURFACE GRINDER. Use of the SURFACE GRINDER may only aggravate this and any other
medically related problem. Because of the diverse type of prevailing job applications, job site conditions,
operator experience levels and operator physical characteristics, no warranty, guarantee, representation
and/or liability is made by the manufacturer as to the absolute correctness or sufficiency of any
operational procedure, operational position and/or technique. There is no absolute guarantee that an
operator of any given experience level, physical size and/or physical condition will be immune to the
possibility of and/or probable physical side effects of the normal use of the SURFACE GRINDER. Each
potential operator must be made aware of and assume the operational and physical liability described
and/or associated with the use of the SURFACE GRINDER. Improper use of the SURFACE GRINDER can
result in property damage and/or personal injury, including death. Each potential operator not willing to
assume the operational and physical liability described and/or associated with the use of the SURFACE
GRINDER, should not operate it. Proper levels of operator experience, skill and common sense are
essential for maximizing the safe and efficient operation of the SURFACE GRINDER.
