gas pipes, electric cables, or other objects that may cause a kickback towards the operator.
Do not attempt to cut following the shape of an arc. Overloading the disc increases its load and susceptibility to twisting or
jamming in the cut groove and the likelihood of kickback towards the operator or disc damage, which can lead to serious injury.
Warnings related to grinding with sandpaper
Use the correct size sandpaper. When selecting a grinding wheel, follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
Sandpaper that protrudes well beyond the disc may cause injury, and also increase the risk of jamming, tearing or kickback
towards the operator.
Warnings related to the work with the wire brush
Be careful, as wire fragments are also ejected from the brush during normal operation. Do not overload the wires by
applying too much pressure to the brush. The wires can easily pierce thin clothing or skin.
If the use of guards is recommended during the work with the wire brush, prevent any contact of the brush with the
guard. The wire brush can increase its diameter under load and centrifugal force.
Safety warnings related to polishing
Do not allow any loose part of the polishing disc or fastening cord to rotate freely. Loose and rotating cords can entangle
in the fi ngers or be caught in the workpiece.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR STRAIGHT GRINDERS
The tool is designed only for grinding, polishing, work with wire brush, carving and cutting. Read all the warnings, in-
structions, illustrations and specifi cations supplied along with this power tool. Failure to observe all instructions presented
below may lead to electric shock, fi re and/or serious injuries.
Do not use any accessories that have not been designed and are not recommended by the manufacturer. The fact that any
accessory may be installed does not mean that it guarantees safe operation.
Maximum rotational speed of accessories must be higher or equal to maximum rotational speed of the tool. Accessories
of smaller rotational speed than the speed of the tool may disintegrate during operation.
Outer diameter and thickness of accessories must stay within the range defi ned for the tool.
Accessories of wrong dimensions may not be properly controlled.
Size of mounting hole of wheels, discs, fl anges and other accessories must fi t the size of tool's spindle. Accessories with
mounting hole not fi lling the size of tool's spindle will start vibrating after the start and this may result in loss of control of the tool.
Shafts of: discs, polishing wheels, cutting discs must be inserted in full into hand grip or tool chuck. If the shaft is not
suffi ciently held down and/or it protrudes too far, the tool inserted may be loosened and ejected at a high speed.
Do not use damaged accessories. Before each use check the condition of such accessories as abrasive wheels for the
presence of cracks and abrasion, polishing wheels for the presence of cracks, abrasion and excessive use, wire brushes
for the presence of loosened or cracked wires. In case of dropping of accessories they must be examined for damages or
new, undamaged accessories should be installed. Once the accessories are examined and installed, you and other third
parties should stay out of the plane of rotation of accessories, and then start the tool for one minute at the maximum
rotational speed. Damaged accessories shall be destroyed during the test.
Use personal safety equipment. Depending on application, use protection of faces, goggles or safety glasses. If it is
required, use anti-dust masks, hearing protections, gloves or aprons protecting from small parts of accessories or
materials produced during operation of the tool. Eye protection must be able to stop fl ying chips produced during operation
of the tool. Anti-dust mask must be able to fi ltrate the dust produced during operation of the tool. Too long exposure to noise may
result in loss of hearing.
Maintain safe distance between the workplace and outsiders. Persons accessing the workplace must use personal safety
equipment. Chips produced during the work or chips of damaged accessories may fl y out of immediate vicinity of the workplace.
While working, where the inserted tool may come into contact with hidden live wire, hold the power tool using insulated handles.
Inserted accessory when coming into contact with a live wire may cause metal components of the tool to become energized, which
could result in electric shock to the tool operator.
Firmly hold the tool in your hand (hands) during the start. The torque of the engine accelerating to full speed can cause the
rotation of the tool.
When possible, use the clamps to hold down the workpiece. Never hold the small workpiece in one hand and the tool
in the other hand during the work. Using clamps for fastening small workpiece will allow controlling the tool with your hands.
Round materials such as spindles and pipes tend to rotate during cutting and may cause a jam or sudden movement towards
the operator.
Place the power cable out of rotating tool components. In case the control of tool is lost, the cable may be cut or seized, and
the operator's hand or arm may be drawn into rotating tool's components.
Never put aside the tool until all rotating elements are stopped completely. Rotating elements may "seize" the substrate and
get the tool out of control.
After the replacement of inserted accessory or any adjustment, always make sure that the nut of the spindle, tool chuck
