Intended use of the machine.
The cylindrical grinding device GIC is to be used together with the belt grinder GI75/GI150 exclusively for grinding and polishing round steel pipes, light metal pipes as well as solid round stock with diameters D = 10–130 mm using the application tools and accessories recommended by FEIN in weather-protected environments.
The cooling unit GXW is intended for cooling of the workpiece.
Special safety instructions.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. Where appropriate, wear 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.
While working, do not wear loose clothing, jewellery or open, long hair. Despite protective devices, loose objects can be snagged or caught by moving parts and lead to injury.
Before switching on, make sure that no workpiece is inserted in the cylindrical grinding device. The workpiece can be thrown from the machine and cause serious accidents.
Never touch the running grinding belt. Danger of injury.
In situations of danger, immediately press the safety pushbutton. The machine runs on for approx. 50 seconds.
Clean the ventilation openings on the power tool at regular intervals using non-metal tools. The blower of the motor draws dust into the housing. An excessive accumulation of metallic dust can cause an electrical hazard.
The mains plug of the machine may be mounted only by a qualified electrician. The protective conductor in the mains socket outlet must be connected with the protective earthing of the mains supply.
Pull out the mains plug for maintenance and repair!
Switching the machine on unintentionally can lead to serious injuries.
Have the electrical safety of the machine checked regularly in accordance with statutory regulations. For machines that have not been checked, there may be danger of electrical shock!
Check the rotation direction of the motor before starting the operation of the machine for the first time. If the rotation direction of the motor is incorrect, the workpiece can be thrown from the machine and cause an accident. The rotation direction may be changed only by a qualifiedelectrician.
Always work with great care and attention, especially when inserting and removing the material. If your attention fades, your hands may be seriously injured.
The surface being worked can become very hot. Do not touch it with your hands.
Be careful when working short or thin material. When inserting and removing, your hands may be caught by the grinding belt or brake wheel, causing serious injury.
For longer pipes and round stock, we recommend the using the pipe guide GXIS-1/GXIS-2.
Exercise caution after switching off. The machine runs on for approx. 50 seconds. Carry out adjustments and maintenance only when the grinding belt is stopped.
Handling hazardous dusts
For work procedures with this power tool where material is removed, dusts develop that can be hazardous to one's health.
Contact with or inhaling some dust types, e. g. asbestos and asbestos-containing materials, lead-containing coatings, metal, some wood types, minerals, silicate particles from materials containing stone, paint solvents, wood preservatives, antifouling paints for vessels, can trigger allergic reactions to the operator or bystanders and/or lead to respiratory infections, cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. The risk from inhaling dusts depends on the exposition. Use dust extraction matched appropriately for the developing dust, as well as personal protective equipment and provide for good ventilation of the workplace. Leave the processing of asbestos-containing materials to specialists.
Wood and light-metal dust, hot mixtures of grinding dust and chemical materials can self-ignite under unfavourable conditions or cause an explosion. Avoid sparking in the direction of the dust collector as well as overheating of the power tool and the materials being sanded, empty the dust collector/container in time, observe the material manufacturer's working instructions, as well as the relevant regulations in your country for the materials being worked.
