the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check

breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool's operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.

erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.

etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.

and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles
and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe
handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.

repair person using only identical replace-
ment parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.

andmaintenance. The use of incompatible ac-
cessories or spare parts can result in electric
shocks or other injuries.

ing. Performing tasks for which the machine
is not designed can create hazards and lead to
injury.

– Never use accessories that were not specially
developed and intended for this machine. Just
because an accessory part can be fitted on
your machine does not guarantee danger-free
operation.
– The permissible rotational speed of the acces-
sory must be at least as high as the maximum
speed specifi ed on the machine. Accessories
that rotate faster than the permissible level can
rupture.
– The outside diameter and the thickness of
accessories must be within the specifi ed size
range of the machine. Accessories with incor-
rect dimensions cannot be suffi ciently protected
or controlled.
– Threaded mounting of accessories must match
the grinder spindle thread. For accessories
mounted by fl anges, the arbour hole of the
accessory must fi t the locating diameter of
the fl ange. Accessories that do not match the
mounting hardware of the power tool will run out
of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause
loss of control.
– Do not use damaged accessories. Before use,
always check accessories such as sanding pads
for nicks or cracks and check support plates
for cracks and excessive wear. Every time the
machine is dropped, check the machine and
accessories for damage, or install undamaged
accessories. Following the check and assembly
of accessories, ensure that all persons are be-
yond the rotating range of the tool and run the
machine for one minute at maximum speed.
Damage accessories usually break completely
during this test time.
– Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on the application, use a shield or protective
goggles. If practical, wear a breathing mask,
ear protectors, safety gloves and a work apron
suitable to protect against impact or small
sanding or workpiece parts. The protective
goggles must be capable of blocking flying
debris caused by the various work operations.
The breathing mask or device must be capable
of fi ltering particles generated during work.
Continuous exposure to loud noise can cause
loss of hearing.
– Ensure that persons standing near the machine
are at a safe distance from the work area. All
persons in the work area must wear personal
protective equipment. Parts of the workpiece or
broken accessories can fl y off and cause injury
outside the immediate work area.
