Maintain the operator handle and motor control
handle grip areas in good condition and free of
moisture, pitch, oil or grease. Wear gloves to
improve your grip. Bent and damaged handles, a
motor control with damaged or no grip aggravate
the torque effect upon the operator by limiting
control and comfort. Do not operate the Floor
Grinder until such damage has been repaired and/
or replaced. Damage to property and/or personal
injury can result.
4) A multi-accessory attachment that comes in direct
contact with a protruding obstruction from the floor
can result in unexpected, 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 attachment
becoming dislodged from the aluminum disc. This
occurrence is intended to protect the Floor Grinder
from excessive damage and allow the operator to
remain in proper control of the machine.
ALWAYS MAINTAIN PROPER CONTROL OF THE
FLOOR GRINDER. IF AN OPERATOR LOOSES
CONTROL OF THE MACHINE, A “RUNAWAY”
FLOOR GRINDER CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
THE ELECTRIC MOTOR IS INTENDED TO
AUTOMATICALLY STOP IF THE OPERATOR FAILS
TO MAINTAIN PROPER CONTROL AND RELEASES
THE STARTER CONTROL GRIP.
WHEN OPERATING THE FLOOR 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 RESULT
IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY.
5) Productivity rates with the various multi-accessory
attachments can be increased with the addition of
external weight being applied to the area over the
aluminum disc. The maximum allowable external
weight for the SG87Sh is 150 lbs (68 kg). Exceeding
this figure can result in permanent structural damage to
the Floor Grinder. Provisions for securing the weight by
the means of strapping or other, appropriate methods
is provided. FIGuRE 19.
