NOTE
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has
been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The de-
clared vibration emission level represents the main applications of
the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with
different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission
may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over
the total working period.
However if the tool is used for different applications, with different
accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may dif-
fer. This may significantly decrease the exposure level over the to-
tal working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the
effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories,
keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
CAUTION!
Wear ear protection at a sound pressure above 85 dB(A).

running briefly.
Rough-grinding
WARNING!
Never use cutting-off wheels for rough-grinding.
–
Angle of wheel 20–40° for best cutting performance.
–
Applying moderate pressure, move the angle grinder
backwards and forwards. As a result, the workpiece will not
become too hot and there will be no discoloration; nor will
there be any grooves.
Cut-off grinding (Figure H)
WARNING!
A special cutting guard must be used for cut-off grinding.
–
Do not press, tilt or oscillate the power tool.
–
Angle grinder must always operate in the counter direction.
Otherwise, there is a risk of the angle grinder jumping
uncontrollably out of the groove.
–
Adjust the feed to the material which is to be work: the
harder the material, the slower the feed.
