v is the peripheral speed in metres per second;
D is the outside diameter of the abrasive product in millimetres

abrasive product guard
guard which encloses the abrasive product exposing only the part necessary for grinding and which is designed and
constructed in such a way that it retains fragments in the guarded area in the event of breakage of the abrasive
product
3.18
work zone enclosure
guard enclosing the working area and retaining any parts which may be ejected during processing
3.19
tool holding device
device intended to secure the abrasive product to the grinding wheel spindle

extraction system
system for removal of the dusts, fumes and mists released during the grinding process
4 List of significant hazards
Significant hazards associated with the machine have been identified in accordance with the procedures described
in EN 292-1:1991, clause 5 and in EN 1050 (see Table 3).
4.1 The list of hazards contained in Table 3 is the result of a hazard identification and risk assessment carried out
as described in EN 1050, for the wide range of stationary grinding machines covered by the scope of this standard.
The safety requirements and/or protective measures and information for use contained in clauses 5 and 7 are based
on the risk assessment and deal with the identified hazards by either eliminating them or reducing the effects of the
risks they generate.
4.2 The risk assessment assumes foreseeable access from all directions, as well as unexpected start-up. Risks to
both the operators and other persons who can have access to the hazard zones are identified, taking into account
hazards which can occur under various conditions (e. g. commissioning, set-up, production, maintenance, repair,
decommissioning) during the life of the machine. The assessment includes an analysis of the effect of failure in the
control system.
4.3 In addition, the user of this standard (e. g. the designer, manufacturer, supplier) shall validate that the risk
assessment is complete for the machine under consideration with particular attention to:
– the intended use of the machine including maintenance, setting and cleaning and its reasonably foreseeable
misuse;
– the identification of the significant hazards associated with the machine.
