  • Keep air hose away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Check the air hose for wear before each use and ensure that all connections are secure.
    WARNING: Before each use check tool is secure, and not worn or damaged. If damaged, replace it immediately.
  • Ensure replacement tools are not damaged (cracks, deformations or splinters, etc).

    WARNING: Always wear approved eye or face protection when operating the die grinder.
  • Use breathing protection in accordance with COSHH regulations if fumes or dust pose a hazard. Wear ear defenders and gloves if necessary.
  • Keep hands and body clear of the workpiece when operating the die grinder.
  • Maintain correct balance and footing. Ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip shoes.
  • Secure unstable workpiece with a clamp, vice, or other adequate holding devices.
  • Keep children and nonessential persons away from the working area.
  • Avoid subjecting tool to excessive strain, always ease against the workpiece (a harsh impact may break the bit). Maintain a controlled progression.
  • DO NOT hold the workpiece by hand. Use clamps or a vice to secure the workpiece.
  • DO NOT use the die grinder for a task it is not designed to perform.
    WARNING: DO NOT use a die grinder if damaged or faulty. Contact your local service agent.
  • DO NOT use a die grinder unless you have been instructed in its use by a qualified person.
  • DO NOT carry the die grinder by the air hose, or pull the hose sharply from the air supply.
  • DO NOT direct air from the air hose at yourself or others.
    WARNING: DO NOT grind any materials containing asbestos.
  • DO NOT turn the die grinder on whilst the tool is in contact with the workpiece.
  • DO NOT use a die grinder where there are flammable liquids, solids, or gases such as paint solvents, including waste wiping or cleaning rags, etc as generated sparks may be dangerous.
  • DO NOT touch the workpiece close to the ground surface as it will be very hot. Allow cooling. The workpiece may also be very sharp.
  • DO NOT operate die grinder if you are tired, under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or intoxicating medication.
  • When not in use disconnect from air supply and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.

PREPARATION

  1. AIR SUPPLY
    Recommended hook-up procedure. Ensure die grinder air valve (or trigger) is in “off” position before connecting to the air supply. You will require an air pressure of 90psi, and an air flow according to specification.
    • WARNING: Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating the die grinder. Too high an air pressure and contaminated air will shorten the product life owing to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury. Drain the air tank daily.
    • Water in the air line will damage the die grinder.
    • Clean air inlet filter weekly. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres).
    • The minimum hose diameter should be 1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
    • Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
  2. COUPLINGS
    • Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the die grinder.
    • To overcome this, connect a leader hose to the grinder. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose.

OPERATION

  1. FITTING TOOLS
    • WARNING: Disconnect from the air supply before changing tools.
      Check that tools are not damaged in any way such as cracks, deformations, splinters etc. Damaged tools must not be used. Use wrenches enclosed to loosen the collet locking collar. Insert tool and re-lock collar.
  2. OPERATING
    • WARNING: Ensure you have read, understood and apply safety instructions.
    • Connect the die grinder to the air supply.
    • To start, hold firmly and push the trigger locking lever forward whilst depressing trigger.
    • The tool must be running at its maximum speed before attempting to grind the workpiece.
    • Slowly and smoothly bring the tool toward the workpiece (avoid jerky movements).
    • Exert adequate pressure on the die grinder to grind according to the type and size of the material you are working with.
    • Avoid subjecting the tool to excessive strain or harsh impacts. Always hold die grinder firmly and ease grinding bit against the workpiece. Maintain a controlled progression.
    • DO NOT allow die grinder to free run for an extended period of time as this will shorten its life.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Disconnect die grinder from air supply before changing accessories, servicing or performing maintenance. Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.

  • Lubricate the air die grinder daily with a few drops of Sealey air tool oil dripped into the air inlet or in the air systems oiler.
  • Clean the die grinder after use.
  • Loss of power or erratic action may be due to the following:

Excessive drain on the air line. Moisture or restriction in the air pipe. Incorrect size or type of hose connectors. To remedy check the air supply and follow instructions in section 4.
