After breakage of the grinding disc during oper-
ation or damage to the holding fixtures on the
protection guard/power tool, the machine must
promptly be sent to an after-sales service agent
for maintenance.
Adjust protection guard in such a manner that
sparking toward the operator is prevented.
The protection guard may only be turned while
actuating the release lever on the gear head.
Otherwise, the machine may not continue to
be used anymore and must be sent to an after-
sales service agent.
Do not touch grinding and cutting discs before
they have cooled down. The discs can become
very hot while working.
Actuate the spindle lock button only when the
grinder spindle is at a standstill. Otherwise, the
machine may become damaged.
After mounting the grinding tool and before
switching on, check that the grinding tool is
correctly mounted and that it can turn freely.
Make sure that the grinding tool does not
graze against the protection guard or other
parts.
When operating the machine with power from
mobile generators, loss of performance or un-
typical behavior can occur upon switching on.
By applying too high application force, the ma-
chine can be subject to overload. Overload
can lead to overheating and damage of the
power tool. After heavily straining the power
tool, continue to run it at no-load for several
minutes in order to cool it down.
Do not use the power tool with a cut-off stand.
Never use a cutting disc for roughing.
The quick-clamping nut may be used only for
grinding or cutting discs. Use only a flawless,
undamaged quick-clamping nut.
Do not pull out the gear head while turning it –
see figure 12, page 167.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on
when using it.
