Special Safety Instructions
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding, Wire Brushing or Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
Use
a) This power tool is intended to function as a grinder, sander, wire
brush, or cut-off tool. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious
injury. WEVA 15-125 Quick, WEVA 15-150 Quick can also be used as a polishing
tool.
b) Operations such as polishing are not recommended to be performed with
this power tool. Operations for which the power tool was not designed may
create a hazard and cause personal injury. (Does not apply to WEVA 15-125
Quick, WEVA 15-150 Quick.)
c) Do not use accessories that are not specifically designed and
recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be
attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum
speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated
speed can break and fly apart.
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be
within the capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories
cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder spindle
thread. For accessories mounted by flanges, the arbor hole of the accessory
must fit the locating diameter of the flange. Accessories that do not match
the mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate
excessively, and may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspects the accessory
such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear, or
excess wear, and a wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If a power tool or
accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory.
After inspecting and installing an accessory, position yourself and bystanders
away from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at
maximum no-load speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break
apart during this test time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on the application, use a face shield, safety goggles, or safety
glasses. As appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves, and
workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The
eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various
operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating
particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high-intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from the work area. Anyone
entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of
workpiece or of a broken ccessory may fly away and cause injury beyond the
immediate area of operation.
j) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
k) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose
control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled
into the spinning accessory.
I) Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has come to a complete
stop. The spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull the power tool out
of your control.
m) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental
contact with the spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the
accessory into your body.
n) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.
The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive
accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could
ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or
other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel, backing
pad, brush, or any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling
of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to
be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the point
of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the
edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the
surface of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel
may either jump toward or away from the operator, depending on the direction
of the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching.
Abrasive wheels may also break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm
to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always use an auxiliary handle, if
provided, for maximum control over kickback or torque reaction during start-
up.
The operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces if proper
precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory may
kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where the power tool will move
if kickback occurs.
Kickback will propel the tool in a direction opposite to the wheel’s movement
at the point of snagging.
d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges, etc. Avoid
bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a
tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw blade. Such
blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.
Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding and Abrasive Cutting-Off
Operations:
a) Use only wheel types that are recommended for your power tool and the
specific guard designed for the selected wheel. Wheels for which the power
tool was not designed cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe.
b) The grinding surface of the center depressed wheels must be mounted
below the plane of the guard lip. An improperly mounted wheel that projects
through the plane of the guard lip cannot be adequately protected.
c) The guard must be securely attached to the power tool and positioned
for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed to the operator.
The guard helps to protect the operator from broken wheel fragments and
accidental contact with the wheel and sparks which could ignite clothing.
d) Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For example: do
not grind with the side of the cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are
intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may
cause them to shatter.
e) Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of the correct size and
shape for your selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus
reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from grinding wheel flanges.
f) Do not use worn-down wheels from larger power tools. Wheel intended
for a larger power tool is not suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool
and may burst.
Additional Safety Warnings Specific for Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:
a) Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not
attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases
the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut
and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
b) Do not position your body in line with and behind the rotating wheel.
When the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving away from your body, the
possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at
you.
c) When the wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason,
switch off the power tool and hold the power tool motionless until the wheel
comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the
cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate and
take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel
reach full speed and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up
or kick back if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
e) Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of
wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their own
weight. Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and
near the edge of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into existing walls or
other blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical
wiring or objects that can cause kickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding Operations:
a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper. Follow
manufacturer’s recommendations, when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding
paper extending beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may
cause snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.
Only for WEVA 15-125 Quick, WEVA 15150 Quick:
Safety Warnings Specific for Polishing Operations:
a) Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet or its attachment
strings to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any loose attachment strings.
Loose and spinning attachment strings can entangle your fingers or snag on the
workpiece.
Safety Warnings Specific for Wire Brushing Operations:
a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even during
ordinary operations. Do not overstress the wires by applying excessive load to
the brush. The wire bristles can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
b) If the use of a guard is recommended for wire brushing, do not allow
any interference of the wire wheel or brush with the guard. Wire wheel or
brush may expand in diameter due to workload and centrifugal forces.
Additional Safety Instructions:
WARNING – Always wear protective goggles.
WARNING – Always operate with two hands.
Use elastic cushioning layers if they have been supplied with the grinding
media and if required.
Observe the specifications of the tool or accessory manufacturer! Protect the
discs from grease or impacts!
Grinding discs must be stored and handled with care in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Never use cutting discs for roughing work! Do not apply pressure to the side
of the cutting discs.
The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against slipping, e.g. using
clamps. Large workpieces must be sufficiently supported.
If accessories with threaded inserts are used, the end of the spindle may not
touch the base of the hole on the grinding tool. Make sure that the thread in
the accessory is long enough to accommodate the full length of the spindle.
The thread in the accessory must match the thread on the spindle.
See page 4 and chapter 14. Technical Specifications for more information on
the spindle length and thread.
The use of a fixed extractor system is recommended.
Always install an RCD with a max. trip current of 30 mA upstream. If the angle
grinder is shut down via the RCD, it must be checked and cleaned. See chapter
9. Cleaning.
Damaged, eccentric, or vibrating tools must not be used.
Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electrical cables, and load-bearing walls
(static).
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any adjustments, converting, or
servicing the machine. Metabo S-automatic safety clutch. When the safety
clutch responds, switch off the machine immediately!
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be replaced. Never operate a
machine with a defective additional handle.
A damaged or cracked safety guard must be replaced. Never operate a machine
with a defective safety guard.
Secure small workpieces. For example, clamp in a vice.
Reducing dust exposure:
WARNING – Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals
are:
- Lead from lead-based paints,
- Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
- Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that
are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
This also applies to dust from other materials such as some timber types (like
oak or beech dust), metals, and asbestos. Other known diseases are e.g.
allergic reactions and respiratory diseases. Do not let dust enter the body.
Observe the relevant guidelines and national regulations for your material,
staff, application, and place of application (e.g. occupational health and
safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the particles generated at the source, and avoid deposits in the
surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this way, fewer particles enter
the environment in an uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- do not direct the escaping particles and the exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons or on dust deposits,
- use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers, ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or blowing stirs up dust.
- Vacuum or wash the protective clothing. Do not blow, beat or brush.
