▶ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
▶ If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
▶ Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
▶ Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
▶ Disconnect the plug from the power source from the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
▶ Store idle power tools out of the reach of children 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.
▶ Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
▶ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
▶ Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
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.
Service
▶ Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
2.2 General safety instructions applicable to grinding, sanding, wire brushing and cutting opera-
tions:
▶ This power tool is designed to be used for grinding, sanding, wire brushing and cutting. Observe
all safety instructions, other instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
▶ This power tool is not suitable for polishing applications. Use of the power tool for purposes for
which it is not intended may be hazardous and cause injury.
▶ Do not use accessories which are not specially designed and recommended for use with this
power tool by the power tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your
power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
▶ The rated speed of rotation of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed stated
on the power tool. Accessories rotating at a speed higher than their rated speed may break and fly
apart.
▶ The outside diameter and thickness of the accessory must comply with the dimensions specified
for the power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
▶ Accessories with a threaded bushing must fit the drive spindle thread exactly. In the case of
accessories fitted by way of a mounting flange, the diameter of the mounting hole in the accessory
must match the diameter of the mounting flange. Accessories that cannot be mounted exactly on the
power tool will run out of round and cause high vibration, possibly leading to loss of control of the power
tool.
▶ Do not use a damaged accessory. Before use, check accessories such as abrasive discs for chips
and cracks, check backing pads for cracks, tears or excessive wear, and check wire brushes for
loose or broken wires. If the power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect it for damage or use an
undamaged accessory. After checking and fitting an accessory, position yourself and bystanders
out of the plane of rotation of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load
running speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break during this test period.
▶ Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on the application, use a face shield, safety
goggles or protective glasses. As appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing protection, protective
gloves and a workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive particles or workpiece fragments.
The eyes must be protected from flying objects or fragments resulting from use of the power tool. The
dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtering out dust particles resulting from use of the power
tool. Prolonged exposure to high-intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
