Only hold the power tool by its insulated surfaces, which
prevent electric shock if the power tool comes into contact
with hidden wires or power cord during operation.
Never use the power cord to pull, carry or unplug the power
tool. Damaged power cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
Keep the power cord and plug away from heat sources, oil,
sharp objects and rotary accessories. Check the condition
of the power cord regularly, if it is damaged, it must be
replaced or repaired by a qualified technician.
Never change the power cord plug and use a socket which
is compatible with the plug. Do not use any kind of socket
adaptor.
The use of extension cords to plug the power cord is not
recommended. However, if you use an extension cord, you
should take some precautions, such as:
▪ If you use the power tool outdoors, use only extension
cord suitable for outdoor use. The use of a suitable
extension cord reduces the risk of electric shock;
▪ Use only extension cords, plugs and sockets with
grounding;
▪ The cross-section of the extension cords cables shall be
proportional to the length and with the same
characteristics as or larger than the angle grinder's
power cord;
▪ Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine the
extension cords before use and replace if necessary;
▪ Always unplug the extension cord before removing the
plug from the power tool;
▪ When using an extension cord reel, unroll the cord
completely.
Individuals who have not read the instruction manual and
are not familiarized with how to operate the grinder must
not use it.
To ensure that you work with the power tool safely, you
should take into account a few precautions and procedures
before start-up:
▪ Inspect the power tool before each use. Check that the
attached accessories are assembled correctly and in
good condition. In case there is excessive damage or
wear, replace them;
▪ Check that all fixing screws and the outer locking flange
are properly fastened. Regular inspection is important to
ensure the safety and performance of the power tool;
▪ After the accessories' assembly and before using the
power tool, test it at full speed with no load for a while.
Check for moving parts misalignment or any other
condition that may affect the angle grinder operation.
Check that all moving parts rotate smoothly, without
abnormal noises or sparks on the carbon brushes;
▪ Check that the safety devices are in perfect condition
and work properly. Never use the power tool if the safety
devices are missing, inhibited, damaged or worn out;
▪ Ensure that the ON/OFF switch is OFF positioned when
you connect the power cord. If the ON/OFF switch is
damaged or does not allow the operation of the tool to
be controlled, it must be repaired or replaced in order to
prevent any accidental start;
▪ Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the
power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury;
▪ While using the angle grinder on metal parts, sparks will
be produced. Therefore, check that nobody is in danger
zone and that there are no flammable materials near the
working area.
Make all adjustments and work necessary for the correct
assembly of the power tool if you have any questions or
difficulties, contact your official dealer.
