Additional Safety Warnings specific for
Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations
Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply

excessive pressure. Do not attempt to
make an excessive depth of cut.
Overstressing the wheel increases the
loading and susceptibility to twisting or
binding of the wheel in the cut and the
possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
Do not position your body in line with and

behind the rotating wheel. When the
wheel, at the point of operation, is moving
away from your body, the possible
kickback may propel the spinning wheel
and the power tool directly at you.
When wheel is binding or when

interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off
the power tool and hold the power tool
motionless until the wheel comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the cut-off wheel from the cut while the
wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may
occur. Investigate and take corrective
action to eliminate the cause of wheel
binding.
Do not restart the cutting operation in the

workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed
and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel
may bind, walk up or kickback if the power
tool is restarted in the workpiece.
Support panels or any oversized

workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel
pinching and kickback. Large workpieces
tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the
workpiece near the line of cut and near the
edge of the workpiece on both sides of the
wheel.
Use extra caution when making a "pocket

cut" into existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding wheel may cut gas or water
pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can
cause kickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding
Operations
Do not use excessively oversized sanding

disc paper. Follow manufacturers
recommendations, when selecting
sanding paper. Larger sanding paper
extending beyond the sanding pad
presents a laceration hazard and may
cause snagging, tearing of the disc, or
kickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Wire
Brushing Operations
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by

the brush even during ordinary operation.
Do not overstress the wires by applying
excessive load to the brush. The wire
bristles can easily penetrate light clothing
and/or skin.
If the use of a guard is recommended for

wire brushing, do not allow any
interference of the wire wheel or brush
with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may
expand in diameter due to work load and
centrifugal forces.

Additional safety instructions

Use suitable detectors to detect

concealed power supply cables or
consult your local supply company.
Contact with electric cables may result in
a fire and/or electric shock. A damaged
gas pipe may cause an explosion. Cutting
into a water pipe will cause damage to
property or may cause an electric shock.
When working, hold the power tool firmly

with both hands and ensure that you
have a secure footing. The power tool is
controlled more securely if held with both
hands.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece is

held more securely in a clamping device
than by hand.
Dust released from materials, such as

lead paints, some types of wood, minerals
and metal, may be hazardous to the
operator or people in the vicinity. Inhaling
or touching such dust may result in
respiratory diseases and/or allergic
reactions.
– Ensure the workplace is well
ventilated.
– If possible, use external dust
extraction.
– It is recommended to wear a respirator
mask belonging to filter class P2.
Do not work on materials which release

hazardous substances (e.g. asbestos).
