  • Never repair damaged batteries. Servicing of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SPECIFIC SAFETY REGULATIONS FOR BUS BUFFER

General safety warnings for grinding, sanding and polishing operations:

  • This power tool is designed to be used as a grinding, grinding or polishing tool. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations, and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all of the instructions below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
  • Do not use accessories not specifically designed or recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because an accessory can be attached to your power tool does not guarantee safe operation.
  • The rated speed of the grinders must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Sanding accessories running faster than their rated speed may break and fly apart.
  • The outside diameter and thickness of the accessory must match the power of your power tool. Wrong-sized accessories are not properly controlled.
  • The size of the wheel arbor, grinding drum or any other attachment must be suitable for the power tool's spindle or collet. Accessories that do not fit the power tool's mounting hardware will lose balance, vibrate excessively, and may result in loss of control.
  • Arbor-mounted wheels, grinding drums, cutters or other accessories must be fully inserted into the collet or chuck. If the mandrel is not held sufficiently and/or the wheel offset is too long, the installed wheel may become loose and fly out at high speed.
  • Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use, check accessories such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, sanding drum for cracks, tears or excessive wear. If the power tool or accessory has been dropped, inspect it for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and installing the nozzle, step away from the plane of the rotating nozzle and turn on the power tool at maximum idle speed for one minute. Damaged accessories usually break during this test time.
  • Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on the application, use a face shield, goggles, or goggles marked AS/NZS 1337.1 conformity. If necessary, wear a dust mask, hearing protection, gloves, and a work apron capable of stopping fine abrasive particles or pieces of workpiece. Eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various operations. A dust mask or respirator must be able to filter particles generated by your work. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
  • Keep bystanders at a safe distance from the work area. Everyone entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of a workpiece or broken fixture may fly out and cause injury outside the immediate area of ​​effect.
  • Hold the power tool only by insulated gripping surfaces when performing operations where the cutting tool may touch hidden wiring. Touching a cutting tool to a “live” wire can make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and cause an electric shock to the operator.
  • Always hold the tool firmly in your hand(s) while starting. The moment the motor reacts when it accelerates to full speed, it can cause the tool to twist.
  • Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever possible. Never hold a small workpiece in one hand and a tool in the other while working. Clamp Machining a small workpiece allows you to use your hand(s) to control the tool. Round material such as dowels, pipes or tubes tend to roll while cutting and can cause the bit to stick or jump towards you.
  • Never put down the power tool until the tool has come to a complete stop. A rotating accessory can grip the surface and take the power tool out of your control.
  • After changing bits or making any adjustments, make sure that the collet nut, chuck, or any other adjustment devices are securely tightened. Loose control devices can move unexpectedly causing loss of control, loose rotating components are violently thrown.
  • Do not switch on the power tool by carrying it on its side. Accidental contact with a rotating accessory may catch on your clothing and pull the accessory into your body.
  • Clean the ventilation openings of the power tool regularly. The motor fan draws dust into the case, and excessive accumulation of metal powder can cause an electric shock hazard.
  • Do not use power tools near flammable materials. Sparks can ignite these materials.
  • Do not use accessories that require liquid coolant. Use of water or other liquid coolants may result in electric shock or electric shock. Kickback and Related Warnings Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or seized rotating wheel, sanding belt, brush, or any other attachment. Pinching or binding causes the rotating tool to stop quickly, which in turn causes the power tool to move uncontrollably in the opposite direction of the tool rotation. For the former, that is, if the abrasive wheel gets caught or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that enters the pinch point can cut into the surface of the material, causing the wheel to skid or slip out. The wheel may bounce towards or away from the operator, depending on the direction of travel of the wheel at the pinch point. Under these conditions, abrasive wheels can also break. Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or improper operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking the proper precautions listed below.
  • Hold the power tool firmly and position your body and hand so that you can resist the kickback force. The operator can control the kickback force if appropriate measures are taken.
  • Take extra care when working around corners, sharp edges, etc. Avoid bouncing or snagging on the attachment. Corners, sharp edges, or bouncing can catch on a rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
  • Do not attach a notched saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.
  • Always feed the drill into the material in the same direction as the cutting edge exits the material (in the same direction as the chips). Feeding the tool in the wrong direction causes the drill tip to pop out of the work and pull the tool in the direction of that feed.
  • When using rotary files, high-speed cutters or tungsten carbide cutters always provide reliable work. These wheels will seize if they are slightly warped in the groove and may cause kickback. When gripping a cutting wheel, the wheel itself usually breaks. When a rotary file, high-speed cutter, or tungsten carbide cutter catches it, it may jump out of the groove and you may lose control of the tool.
    Additional safety warnings
    To reduce the risk of injury, wear appropriate
    respiratory protection or use a suitable dust removal solution when working in dusty conditions.
  • Do not use the battery as leverage. Use the correct power tool for your application. The right power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate it was designed for.
  • Always use common sense and be careful when using tools. It is impossible to foresee every situation that could lead to a dangerous outcome. Do not use this tool if you do not understand these operating instructions or if you feel that the operation is beyond your ability; contact MILWAUKEE® Tool or a trained professional for more information or training.
  • Watch labels and nameplates. They carry important information. If they are unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE® Service Center for a replacement.
    Some dust from sanding, sawing, sanding, drilling and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some former & lesser of these chemicals are:
  • lead from lead based paint
  • crystalline silica from brick, cement and other stone products, and
  • arsenic and chromium from chemically treated wood. Your risk from these exposures varies depending on your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated area and work with approved protective equipment such as respirators specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse a tool, battery, or charger in liquid or allow liquid to flow inside them. Corrosive or conductive liquids such as sea water, some industrial chemicals, bleaches or products containing bleach, etc. may cause a short circuit.

Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.

  • The characteristic of rubber deformation under compression is fully used here. The rapid growth of deformations is accompanied by a gradually increasing load, and the rubber buffer becomes the stiffer, the more it is deformed.

    Typical body buffers are shown in fig. 401, and for the chassis - in fig. 402. The main dimensions of buffers for bodies are given in Table. 56.

    Characteristics of round buffers "Megulastic" (Fig. 403) is given in Table. 57. Dimensions of round buffers are chosen so that

    the maximum deformation of rubber under the influence of dynamic load does not exceed the allowable limits [103, 127, 128].

    The deformation of a rubber buffer loaded with a vertical dynamic force (Fig. 404) is calculated [58] using the following formula:

    where / is the buffer deformation under dynamic load, cm; K is the height of the fall of the load G on the buffer, cm; G is the mass of the load falling on the buffer, kg; s din - dynamic stiffness 6v (beoa, kgf / cm, and - max

    small "permissible buffer compression, N, given in table. 57; f d - deformation of the buffer during compression by force P d > given in Table 57. a is the correction factor for dynamic loads given in Table 58.

    57 refer to buffers

    made of rubber with a hardness of HSh 60. When it is necessary to use rubber with a different hardness, select the correction factor corresponding to this hardness from table. 58. The resulting deformation of the buffer should not exceed 25% of the height of the rubber.

    403. Designations of the main dimensions of the buffers "Megulastic" [58]

    The deformation of the rubber buffer (in cm), loaded with a dynamic horizontal force (Fig. 405), is calculated using the following formula:

    where V is the speed of the impacting mass when it meets an obstacle, cm/s; g is the acceleration due to gravity 981 cm/s 2 .

    Deformation during a horizontal impact should not exceed the values ​​given for f d in Table 57, more than 50%.

    Increasingly, front and rear rubber bumpers are used in passenger cars (Fig. 406 and 407) [11-15, 23, 135]. For example, Ford uses natural rubber bumpers, while others use synthetic rubber. The introduction of bumpers of this type leads to greater traffic safety. Studies initiated by US insurance companies have shown that in the US compensation,

    paid out for minor injuries in road accidents eats up billions of dollars. The same situation exists wherever there is heavy traffic. Minor injuries usually occur when an accident occurs at low vehicle speeds.

    In order to improve traffic safety, in 1973, the United States introduced the MVSS215 safety regulation, which requires that if a car traveling at a speed of 2. 2 m / s (8 km / h) hits a stationary obstacle, the functioning of the steering device should not be impaired , brakes, drivetrain, suspension, fuel system, exhaust and cooling systems.

    Lighting devices, direction indicators, hood, trunk roof, doors should also remain in working order. It is expected that these requirements will soon be tightened, since the critical speed at the time of the collision should increase to 4.4 m/s (16 km/h).

    Automotive companies in Europe, especially those exporting their products to the USA, strive to ensure that their cars also meet these requirements. This can be achieved by skillfully designing rubber bumpers. Often they are * multi-chamber rubber beams with HSh 70-90, fixed on fixing steel beams.

    The rubber used to produce these safety bumpers should have high aging resistance and little change in elasticity over a temperature range of -40 to +80°C. for their manufacture in vehicles.
