e) Grinding discs, sanding drums or other ac-
cessories must match the grinding spindle or
collet chuck of your power tool exactly. Ac-
cessory tools which do not fit precisely into the
take-up of the power tool will rotate unevenly,
vibrate severely and can lead to a loss of control.
f) Discs, grinding cylinders, cutting tools or
other accessories mounted on a mandrel must
be completely inserted in the collet or chuck.
Any "protrusion" or exposed parts of the
mandrel between the grinding tool and the
collet or chuck must be kept to a minimum.
If the mandrel is not sufficiently tightened or the
grinding tool protrudes too far, the tool could
come loose and been thrown out at high speed.
g) Never use damaged accessory tools. Before
each use, check accessory tools such as
grinding discs for chips or cracks, sanding
drums for cracks, wearing or excessive wear
and tear and wire brushes for loose or bro-
ken wires. If the power tool or the accessory
tool in use is dropped, check to see if it is
damaged or use an undamaged accessory
tool.
When you have checked and inserted the
accessory tool, ensure that you and any other
people in the vicinity remain outside of the
range of the rotating accessory tool and al-
low the tool to rotate at maximum speed for
one minute. Damaged accessory tools usually
break during this test period.
h) Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on the application, ensure that
you use full face protection, eye protection
or goggles. If required, use a dust mask, ear
protectors, protective gloves or special apron
to protect you from grindings and material
particles. The eyes should be protected from
flying debris that may be caused during certain
applications. Dust or filter masks must be used
to filter any dust created by the application. If
you are exposed to loud noise for any length
of time, you may suffer hearing loss.

i) Ensure that other people remain at a safe dis-
tance to your workspace. Anyone who enters
the workspace must wear personal protective
equipment. Fragments of the workpiece or
broken accessory tools can fly off and cause
injury – even outside the immediate working
area.
j) Hold the power tool only by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing an opera-
tion where the accessory tool may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with
a live cable may also cause metal parts of the
appliance to become live and may result in an
electric shock.
k) Always hold the power tool firmly. When
running up to full speed, the torque of the motor
can cause the power tool to twist.
l) If possible, use clamps to hold the workpiece
in position. Never hold a small workpiece
in one hand and the power tool in the other
while you are using it. By clamping small
workpieces, you keep both hands free for better
control of the power tool. When cutting round
workpieces such as dowels, rods or pipes, be
aware that these can roll away and this can
cause the tool to jam and be thrown towards
you.
m) Hold the power cord away from any rotating
accessories. If you lose control of the appli-
ance, the cord may get cut or caught and your
hand or arm could get caught in the rotating
accessory tool.
n) Never put the power tool down until the ac-
cessory tool has come to a complete stand-
still. The rotating accessory tool could come
into contact with the surface and cause you to
lose control of the power tool.
