Additional safety rules for grinders
• Your grinder has been designed for grinding and
cutting masonry and steel.
Do not cut or grind light metal with a
magnesium content exceeding 80%
since this type of metal is flammable.
• Do not use any accessories other than fibre
reinforced grinding and cutting discs.
• Use the grinding and cutting discs recommended
by the manufacturer only.
• The max. allowable speed of the grinding wheel
or cutting disc must always be equal to or
greater than the no-load speed of the tool
specified on the nameplate.
• Do not cut workpieces requiring a maximum
depth of cut exceeding that of the cutting disc.
• Do not use grinding and cutting discs that do not
conform to the dimensions stated in the technical
data. Do not use any spacers to make a disc fit
onto the spindle.
• Inspect grinding and cutting discs before each
use. Do not use chipped, cracked or otherwise
defective discs.
• If provided, ensure that blotters are used when
the disc is fitted onto the spindle.
• When applying a threaded hole disc, ensure that
the thread is long enough to accept the spindle.
• Ensure that the grinding or cutting disc is
mounted correctly before use.
• Let the tool run at no-load in a safe position for at
least 30 seconds. If there is a considerable
vibration or if any other defect occurs, stop the
tool and check it to determine the cause.
• Do not operate this tool without the guard in place.
• Check that the workpiece is properly supported.
• Do not operate the tool near flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Sparks or hot chips from cutting
or arcing motor brushes may ignite combustible
materials.

the disc. Keep other persons away from the work
area.
• Do not use cutting discs for side grinding.
• Do not operate the spindle lock while the tool is
running.
