WARNING:
The vibration emission during
actual use of the power tool can differ from the
declared value(s) depending on the ways in which
the tool is used especially what kind of workpiece
is processed.
WARNING:
Be sure to identify safety mea-
sures to protect the operator that are based on an
estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of
use (taking account of all parts of the operating
cycle such as the times when the tool is switched
off and when it is running idle in addition to the
trigger time).

Declarations of Conformity

For European countries only
The Declarations of conformity are included in Annex A
to this instruction manual.
SAFETY WARNINGS

General power tool safety warnings

WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, 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.
Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Compact cut off safety warnings
1. The guard provided with the tool must be
securely attached to the power tool and
positioned for maximum safety, so the least
amount of wheel is exposed towards the oper-
ator. Position yourself and bystanders away
from the plane of the rotating wheel. The guard
helps to protect operator from broken wheel frag-
ments and accidental contact with wheel.
2. Use only bonded reinforced or diamond cut-off
wheels for your power tool. Just because an
accessory can be attached to your power tool, it
does not assure safe operation.
3. The rated speed of the accessory must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. Accessories running faster than
their rated speed can break and fly apart.
4. Wheels must be used only for recommended
applications. For example: do not grind with
the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels
are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces
applied to these wheels may cause them to
shatter.
5. Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are
of correct diameter for your selected wheel.
Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus
reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
6. Do not use worn down reinforced wheels from
larger power tools. Wheels intended for a larger
power tool are not suitable for the higher speed of
a smaller tool and may burst.
7. The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be within the capacity rating
of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories
cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
The arbour size of wheels and flanges must
8.
properly fit the spindle of the power tool.
Wheels and flanges with arbour holes that do not
match the mounting hardware of the power tool
will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and
may cause loss of control.
9. Do not use damaged wheels. Before each
use, inspect the wheels for chips and cracks.
If power tool or wheel is dropped, inspect for
damage or install an undamaged wheel. After
inspecting and installing the wheel, position
yourself and bystanders away from the plane
of the rotating wheel and run the power tool
at maximum no load speed for one minute.
Damaged wheels will normally break apart during
this test time.
10. Wear personal protective equipment. Always
wear hearing protection. Depending on
application, use face shield, safety goggles
or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust
mask, gloves and shop apron capable of stop-
ping small abrasive or workpiece fragments.
The eye protection must be capable of stopping
flying debris generated by various operations.
The dust mask or respirator must be capable of
filtrating particles generated by your operation.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may
cause hearing loss.
11. Keep bystanders a safe distance away from
work area. Anyone entering the work area
must wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of workpiece or of a broken wheel may
fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area
of operation.
12. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact hid-
den wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
13. Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
sory has come to a complete stop. The spinning
wheel may grab the surface and pull the power
tool out of your control.
14. Do not run the power tool while carrying it at
your side. Accidental contact with the spinning
accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the
accessory into your body.
15. Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The
motorʼs fan will draw the dust inside the housing
and excessive accumulation of powdered metal
may cause electrical hazards.
