When the machine is shut down via the FI circuit-
breaker, it must be checked and cleaned.
Cleaning the motor, see Maintenance.
The dust created when working is often harmful to
health (e.g. when working with oak and beech,
stone, or paint coats which may contain lead or
other harmful substances). This dust must not be
allowed to enter your body. Use a dust extractor
and in addition wear a suitable dust protection
mask.
Thoroughly remove any dust deposits, e.g. by
cleaning with a suitable vacuum cleaner. Dust is
potentially explosive!
Materials that generate dusts or vapours that may
be harmful to health (e.g. asbestos) must not be
processed.
When working in dusty conditions, ensure that
ventilation openings are not blocked. If it
becomes necessary to remove dust, first
disconnect the power tool from the mains supply
(use non-metallic objects) and avoid damaging
internal components.
Ensure that the speed specified on the tool is
equal to, or greater than, the maximum speed of
the machine.
Ensure that the tool dimensions match those of
the machine.
Tools must be stored and handled with care in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be
used.
Ensure that tools are installed in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
Use elastic cushioning layers if they have been
supplied with the tool and if required.
Prior to use, ensure that the tool is properly fitted
and secured. Run the tool in idling for one minute
in a safe position and bring to a standstill
immediately if there are significant vibrations or if
other deficiencies are determined. If such a
situation occurs, check the machine to determine
the cause.
Do not use separate reducing bushings or
adapters to adapt tools with a large hole.
In the case of tools with threaded inserts, ensure
that the thread is long enough to accommodate
the spindle length.
Secure the workpiece firmly.
Use only dry tools!
Keep hands away from the rotating tool - risk of
injury!
Ensure that sparks produced during work do not
constitute a risk to the user or other personnel
and are not able to ignite inflammable
substances. Endangered areas must be protected
with flame-resistant covers. Make sure that fire-

risk areas are always provided with suitable fire
extinguishers.
Always wear eye goggles and hearing protection.
Use other available protective equipment such as
protective gloves, suitable protective work
clothing and helmet.
The tool continues running after the machine has
been switched off.
When sanding and working with the lambskin
polishing disc with cord drive always work with
the hand protection guard installed.
If operating the power tool in damp locations is
unavoidable, a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
must be used to supply the power to your tool.
Electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will
further enhance your personal safety.
Grinding wheels or any other accessory must
have a maximum safe operation speed greater
than the "no load RPM" marked on the tool´s
nameplate.
Always use auxiliary handle for maximum
control over torque reaction or kick-back.
Operation of the grinder without the side handle
could cause loss of control of the grinder,
resulting in possible serious personal injury.
Warning! Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
– Lead from lead-based paints,
– Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
– Arsenic and cromium from chemically treated
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
