Lubrication - Facom V.CE100F Notice Originale

dust or fumes should be correctly used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted tool as recommended in the instructions,
to prevent an unnecessary increase in dust or fumes.
• Working with certain materials creates emissions of dust and fumes, causing a potentially
explosive environment.
• Exposure to high noise levels can cause permanent, disabling hearing loss and other problems,
such as tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, whistling or humming in the ears). Therefore, a risk assessment
and the implementation of appropriate controls for these hazards are essential.
• Appropriate controls to reduce the risk may include actions, such as damping materials, to
prevent workpieces from «ringing».
• Operate and maintain the grinder as recommended in the instructions handbook to prevent an
unnecessary increase in noise.
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted tool as recommended in the instructions
handbook to prevent an unnecessary increase in noise.
• Wear warm clothing whenever working in cold conditions and keep your hands warm and dry.
USING THE MACHINE
• Before using the machine, check that there is no dangerous interaction with the
immediate environment (explosive gas, inflammable or dangerous liquid, unknown
piping, electric sheathing or cable, etc).
• Before connecting the machine to the air inlet, check the trigger is not blocked in the
on position by an obstacle and no adjustment or assembly tool is still in position.
• Check the machine is connected to the network by a quick disconnect joint and
that an air braker valve is close by to shut the air down immediately in the event of
blockage, breakage or any other incident.
• Keep hands, loose clothing and long hair away from rotating end of machine.
• To turn the tool «on» release the safety lever. Be certain that its
maximum safe operating speed does not exceed the nameplate speed on the
cut-off tool. Before switching on the tool, make sure that the cutting wheel
is correctly assembled and properly tightened. Use cutting wheels rated
above17,000 RPM and with a diameter of 100 mm and center hole diameter
of max 10 mm only. Do not exceed the recommended wheel diameter.
MAINTENANCE
Your FACOM grinder has been designed to operate over a long period of
time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

Lubrication

Every eight hours' operation, if a lubricator is not used on the compressed
air network, inject 1/2 to 1cm through the machine's inlet connection.

Do not use damaged, frayed or deteriorated air hoses
and fittings.
The pneumatic machine can vibrate in use. Vibration, repetitive
motions or uncomfortable positions may be harmful to your hands
and arms. Stop using any machine if discomfort, tingling feeling
or pain occurs.
Seek medical advice before resuming use.
Do not carry the machine by the hose.
Keep body stance balanced and firm. Do not overreach when
operating this machine.

• Operate and maintain the grinder as recommended in the instructions handbook to prevent an
unnecessary increase in vibration levels.
• Do not allow the inserted tool to chatter on the workpiece as this is likely to cause a substantial
increase in vibration.
• Select, maintain and replace the consumable/inserted tool as recommended in the instructions
handbook to prevent an unnecessary increase in vibration levels.
• Hold the tool with a light but sale grip, taking account of the required hand reaction forces
because the risk arising from vibration is generally greater where the grip force is higher.
• Use blotters where they are provided with the bonded abrasive product.
• never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
• Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
• Whenever universal twist couplings (claw couplings) are used, lock-pins shall be installed and
whipcheck safety cables shall be used to safeguard against possible hose-to-tool and hose-to-hose
connection failure.
Larger hole diameters of the cutting wheel may start to wobble. Push the
adjustable guard button and adjust the guard direction to the required working
positions.
• Anticipate and be alert for sudden changes in motion during start up and
operation of any power machine.
• Ensure that the unit on which the work is being carried out is immobilised.
• In the event of blockage, release the trigger and disconnect the machine
from the compressed air network.
• Use accessories recommended by FACOM.
• The use of other than genuine FACOM replacement parts may result in safety
hazards, decreased machine performance, and increased maintenance, and cancel all
warranties.
Repairs should be made only by authorized trained personnel. Consult your nearest
FACOM Authorized Servicenter.
Cleaning
WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the
non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic
materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water and
mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never
immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
WARNING
Use protective equipment such as glasses, gloves, safety shoes as well
as acoustic protection.
Remain vigilant, use common sense and pay attention when using
the machine.
Always turn off the air supply and disconnect the airsupply hose
before installing, removing or adjusting any accessory on this
machine, or before performing any maintenance on this machine.
When working with certain materials, exposure to dust may be
dangerous for health.
Get information on the composition of the material you are working
on and use suitable protective equipment. If in doubt, use as much
protection as possible.
