PERSONAL SAFETY

1. No children or pregnant women should enter

the work area where the paint removal is being

done until all clean up is completed.

2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all

persons entering the work area. The filter should

be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has

difficulty breathing.

NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for

working with lead paint dust and fumes should

be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer

this protection. See your local hardware dealer

for the proper respiratory protection.

3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should

be done in the work area to prevent ingesting

contaminated paint particles. Workers should

wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking

or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking

should not be left in the work area where dust

would settle on them.

ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY

1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as

to minimize the amount of dust generated.

2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should

be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils

thickness.

3. Wire brushing should be done in a manner to

reduce tracking of paint dust outside the work

area.

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL

1. All surfaces in the work area should be

vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for the

duration of the wire brushing project. Vacuum

filter bags should be changed frequently.

2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and

disposed of along with any dust chips or other

removal debris. They should be placed in sealed

refuse receptacles and disposed of through

regular trash pick-up procedures.

During clean up, children and pregnant women

should be kept away from the immediate work

area.

3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by

children should be washed thoroughly before

being used again.

Metal Applications

When using the tool in metal applications, make

sure that a residual current device (RCD) has been

inserted to avoid residual risks caused by metal

swarf.

3. Maintain a 5° to 10° angle between the tool and

work surface for wire cup brushes.

4. Maintain contact between the edge of the wheel

and the work surface with wire wheels.

5. Continuously move the tool in a forward and

back motion to avoid creating gouges in the

work surface. Allowing the tool to rest on the

work surface without moving, or moving the tool

in a circular motion causes burning and swirling

marks on the work surface.

6. Remove the tool from the work surface before

turning the tool off. Allow the tool to stop

rotating before setting it down.

CAUTION: Use extra care when

working over an edge, as a sudden

sharp movement of grinder may be

experienced.

Using Cutting (Type 1) Wheels

WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/

cutting wheels for surface grinding

applications because these wheels

are not designed for side pressures

encountered with surface grinding.

Wheel breakage and injury may result.

1. Allow tool to reach full speed before touching

tool to work surface.

2. Apply minimum pressure to work surface,

allowing tool to operate at high speed. Cutting

rate is greatest when the tool operates at high

speed.

3. Once a cut is begun and a notch is established

in the workpiece, do not change the angle

of the cut. Changing the angle will cause the

wheel to bend and may cause wheel breakage.

4. Remove the tool from work surface before

turning tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating

before setting it down.

Precautions To Take When Wire

Brushing Paint

1. Wire brushing of lead based paint is NOT

RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of

controlling the contaminated dust. The greatest

danger of lead poisoning is to children and

pregnant women.

2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a

paint contains lead without a chemical analysis,

we recommend the following precautions when

wire brushing any paint:
