Safety Instructions
Please read the operator’s manual carefully and make sure you
understand the instructions before using the machine.
WARNING! Dust forms when grinding which can cause injuries if
inhaled. Use an approved breathing mask. Always provide for
good ventilation while machine is in use.
Always wear:
Approved protective helmet.
Approved hearing protection.
Protective goggles or a visor.
Dust Mask
Dust forms when grinding, which can cause injuries if inhaled.
Always wear approved protective gloves.
Always wear sturdy non-slip boots with steel toe-caps.
WARNING
Under no circumstances may the machine be started without ob-
serving the safety instructions.
Should the user fail to comply with these, SASE Company Inc or its
representatives are free from all liability both directly and indirectly.
Read through these operating instructions and make sure that you
understand the contents before starting to use the machine.
Should you, after reading these safety instructions, still feel uncer-
tain about the safety risks involved you must not use the machine,
please contact your SASE representative for more information.
Only qualified personnel should be allowed to operate machinery.
Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks, mainte-
nance and service instructions described in this manual. All repairs
not covered in this manual must be performed by a repairer nomi-
nated by either the manufacturer or distributor.
Always wear personal safety equipment such as sturdy non-slip
boots, ear protection, dust mask and approved eye protection.
The machine should not be used in areas where potential for fire or
explosions exist.
Machinery should only be started when grinding heads are resting
on the ground.
The machine should not be started without the rubber dust skirt
attached. It is essential a good seal between floor and machine be
established for safety, especially when operating in dry grinding
applications.
When changing the grinding discs ensure power supply to the unit
is OFF by engaging the Emergency Stop button and the power-plug
disconnected.
The machine should not be lifted by handles, motor, chassis or
other parts. Transportation of the machine is best done on a pallet /
skid to which the machine must be firmly secured.
Extreme caution must be used when moving machinery by hand on
an inclined plane. Even the slightest slope can cause forces/
momentum making the machinery impossible to brake manually.
Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have consumed any
alcohol, or if you are taking medication that could affect your vision,
your judgment or your coordination.
Never use a machine that has been modified in any way from its
original specification.
Be on your guard for electrical shocks. Avoid having body contact
with lightning conductors/metal in the ground.
Never drag the machine by means of the cord and never pull out
the plug by pulling the cord. Keep all cords and extension cords
away from water, oil and sharp edges.
Safety Instructions
Check that the cord and extension cord are intact and in good condi-
tion. Never use the machine if the cord is damaged, hand it in to an
authorized service workshop for repair.
Does not use a rolled up extension cord.
Electrical cords must not exceed 200ft in length.
The machine should be connected to an earthed outlet socket.
Check that the mains voltage corresponds with that stated on the
rating plate on the machine.
Ensure the cord is behind you when you start to use the machine so
that the cord will not be damaged.
WARNING
A
t no time should lifting of machinery be attempted without
mechanical means such as a hoist or a forklift.
WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE!
Inspection and/or maintenance should be carried out
with the motor switched off and the plug discon-
nected.
This product is in accordance with applicable
EU directives
Introduction
The SASE PDG 8000 planetary diamond grinders are designed for wet or
dry grinding of marble, terrazzo, granite and concrete. Their applications
range from rough grinding through to a polished finish.
It is extremely important all users be familiar with the contents of this
manual before commencing operation of either machine. Failure to do so
may result in damage to machinery or expose operator to unnecessary
dangers.
IMPORTANT!
Only staff that has received the necessary training, both practically and
theoretically concerning their usage should operate the machinery.
Transportation
The machine comes equipped with an electronic system called a variable
speed drive or a frequency converter. The drive enables the variable
speed and direction component of the motor.
The drive is located in the steel cabinet mounted on the machine chassis.
As with all electronic equipment, the drives are sensitive to excessive
vibration, rough treatment and high levels of dust. Much care and atten-
tion has been given by SASE to ensure maximal protection is given to the
drive. Note the shock absorbing mounting system used to mount the
steel cabinet on the machine chassis/frame.
When transporting, it is important to ensure the machinery is properly
secured at all times to eliminate “bouncing” of the variable speed drive.
Ensure the chassis or frame section of the machine is secured down at
all times when in transit.
The machine should always be transported under cover limiting the ex-
posed to natural elements – in particular rain and snow.
WARNING
The machine should not be lifted by handle, motor, chassis or other
parts. Transportation of the machine is best done on a pallet/skid to
which the machine must be firmly secured.
Do not attempt to slide the tines/forks from a fork lift under grinding
heads unless on a pallet/skid.
Failure to do so can cause irreparable damage to grinding heads of
machine and internal parts.
IMPORTANT!
It is recommended that machinery be transported with a set
of diamonds attached at all times to ensure protection of
locking mechanism for diamond plates.
Storage
The machine should always be stored in a dry place when not in use.
