Grinding wheels for larger power tools are not designed for higher rotational speed, which is specific
to smaller power tools. Thus, such grinding wheels may break.
Additional safety guidelines
Before connecting to the power source, always make sure the supply voltage is compatible with
the value specified on the nameplate of the tool.
Before the grinder is connected, always check the power cord. In case of damage, have it repaired
in an authorised workshop.
Before all installation works, the plug should be taken out of the receptacle.
Grinding tools should be checked before each use. A grinding tool must be correctly fastened
and should rotate freely. As part of the test, the tool should be switched on with no load for at
least one minute in a safe position. Do not use damaged or vibrating grinding tools. Grinding
tools should be round. Damaged grinding tools may break and cause injuries.
After a grinding tool is installed and before the grinder is switched on, check the grinding tool
for correct installation and free rotations.
Make sure that wrenches used for installation of tools are not left. Before the grinder is switched
on, make sure the wrenches are removed.
Always secure the workpiece. It is always preferable to secure the workpiece in a vice or other
fastening tool rather than holding it in your hand.
If own weight of the workpiece does not guarantee a stable position, it should be fastened.
Do not touch grinding tools, before they cool down.
NOTE: The tools is intended for indoor works.
Despite using the construction, which is safe by design itself, protection means and additional safety
features, there is always a residual risk of injuries during operation.
