• After fitting the sanding tool and before starting the sander, check
that the sanding tool is properly fitted, that it rotates freely and
that it does not catch on the guard.
• The spindle lock button can only be operated when the grinding
spindle is stationary.
• On tools designed to accommodate tapped grinding wheels,
check that the length of the grinding wheel thread is appropriate
to the length of the spindle thread.
• The workpiece must be secured. Clamping the workpiece in a
clamping device or vise is safer than holding it in your hand.
• If the object's own weight does not guarantee a stable position, it
must be fixed.
• Do not touch the cutting and grinding discs before they have
cooled down.
• Do not exert lateral pressure on the grinding or cutting disc.
Do not cut workpieces thicker than the maximum cutting depth
of the cutting disc.
• When using a quick-action flange, ensure that the inner flange
fitted to the spindle is fitted with a rubber O-ring and that this ring
is not damaged. Also ensure that the surfaces of the outer flange
and inner flange are clean.
• Use the quick-action flange only with abrasive and cutting discs.
Use only undamaged and properly functioning flanges.
PROPER BATTERY HANDLING AND OPERATION
• The battery charging process should be under the control of the
user.
• Avoid charging the battery at temperatures below 0
• Only charge the batteries with the charger recommended by
the manufacturer. The use of a charger designed to charge a
different type of battery poses a risk of fire.
• When the battery is not in use, keep it away from metal
objects such as paper clips, coins, keys nails, screws, or
other small metal items that can short-circuit the battery
terminals. Short-circuiting the battery terminals can cause burns
or fire.
• In the event of damage and/or misuse of the battery, gases
may be released. Ventilate the room, consult a doctor in case
of discomfort. The gases may damage the respiratory tract.
• Fluid leakage from the battery may occur in extreme
conditions. Liquid leaking from the battery can cause
irritation or burns. If a leak is detected, proceed as follows:
• Carefully wipe off the liquid with a piece of cloth. Avoid contact of
the liquid with the skin or eyes.
• if the liquid comes into contact with the skin, the relevant area on
the body should be washed immediately with copious amounts of
clean water, or neutralise the liquid with a mild acid such as lemon
juice or vinegar.
• if the liquid gets into the eyes, rinse them immediately with plenty
of clean water for at least 10 minutes and seek medical advice.
• Do not use a battery that is damaged or modified. Damaged
or modified batteries may act unpredictably, leading to fire,
explosion or danger of injury.
• The battery must not be exposed to moisture or water.
• Always keep the battery away from a heat source. Do not leave
it in a high temperature environment for long periods of time (in
direct sunlight, near radiators or anywhere where the temperature
exceeds 50°C).
• Do not expose the battery to fire or excessive heat. Exposure
to fire or temperatures above 130°C may cause an explosion.
• NOTE: A temperature of 130°C can be specified as 265°F.
• All charging instructions must be followed, and the battery must
not be charged at a temperature outside the range specified in
the rating data table in the operating instructions. Charging
incorrectly or at temperatures outside the specified range can
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
BATTERY REPAIR:
• Damaged batteries must not be repaired. Repairs to the
battery are only permitted by the manufacturer or an authorised
service centre.
• The used battery should be taken to a disposal centre for
this type of hazardous waste.
• SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CHARGER
• The charger must not be exposed to moisture or water. The
ingress of water into the charger increases the risk of shock. The
charger may only be used indoors in dry rooms.
• Unplug the charger from the mains before carrying out any
maintenance or cleaning.
• Do not use the charger placed on a flammable surface (e.g.
paper, textiles) or in the vicinity of flammable substances.
Due to the charger's temperature increase during the charging
process, there is a danger of fire.
• Check the condition of the charger, cable and plug each time
before use. If damage is found - do not use the charger. Do
not attempt to disassemble the charger. Refer all repairs to an
authorised service workshop. Improper installation of the charger
may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
• Children and physically, emotionally or mentally challenged
persons, as well as other persons whose experience or
knowledge is insufficient to operate the charger with all safety
precautions, should not operate the charger without the
supervision of a responsible person. Otherwise there is a danger
that the device will be mishandled resulting in injury.
• When the charger is not in use, it should be disconnected
from the mains.
• All charging instructions must be followed, and the battery
must not be charged at a temperature outside the range
specified in the rating data table in the operating
instructions. Charging incorrectly or at temperatures outside the
specified range can damage the battery and increase the risk of
o

fire.
CHARGER REPAIR
• A defective charger must not be repaired. Repairs to the
charger are only permitted by the manufacturer or an authorised
service centre.
• The used charger should be taken to a disposal centre for
this type of waste.
• ATTENTION: The device is designed for indoor operation.
• Despite the use of an inherently safe design, the use of
safety measures and additional protective measures,
there is always a residual risk of injury during work.
Li-Ion batteries can leak, catch fire or explode if they are
heated to high temperatures or short-circuited. Do not store
them in the car during hot and sunny days. Do not open the
battery pack. Li-Ion batteries contain electronic safety
devices which, if damaged, can cause the battery to catch
fire or explode.
