SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR GRINDING
AND ABRASIVE CUTTING OFF OPERATIONS
a. Use only wheel types that are recommended for your power
tool and the specifi c guard designed for the selected wheel.
Wheels for which the power tool was not designed cannot be
adequately guarded and are unsafe.
b. Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For
example: do not grind with the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive
cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces
applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
c. Always use undamaged wheel fl anges that are of correct
size and shape for your selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges
support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel
breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from
grinding wheel flanges.
d. Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools.
Wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable for the
higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR
ABRASIVE CUTTING OFF OPERATIONS
a. Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do
not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing
the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or
binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback
or wheel breakage.
b. Do not position your body in line with and behind the rotating
wheel. When the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving
away from your body, the possible kickback may propel the
spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
c. When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason,
switch off the power tool and hold the power tool motionless
until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to
remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in
motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate and take
corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
d. Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let
the wheel reach full speed and carefully reenter the cut. The
wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is
restarted in the workpiece.
e. Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the
risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces tend
to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed
under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge
of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
f. Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into existing
walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas
or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can cause
kickback.
SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR
SANDING OPERATIONS
a. When sanding, do not use excessively oversized sanding
disc paper. Follow manufacturers recommendations, when
selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending
beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and
may cause snagging, tearing of the disc, or kickback.

SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR
POLISHING OPERATIONS
a. Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet or
its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any
loose attachment strings. Loose and spinning attachment
strings can entangle your fingers or snag on the workpiece.
SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR
WIRE BRUSHING OPERATIONS
a. Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even
during ordinary operation. Do not overstress the wires by
applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles can
easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
b. If the use of a guard is recommended for wire brushing, do
not allow any interference of the wire wheel or brush with the
guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter due to
work load and centrifugal forces.
ENVIRONMENT
DISPOSAL
The machine, accessories and packaging should be sorted for
environmental-friendly recycling.
ONLY FOR EC COUNTRIES
Do not dispose of power tools into household waste!
According the European Guideline 2002/96/EC for
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment and its
implementation into national right, power tools that
are no longer usable must be collected separately and
disposed of in an environmentally correct manner.

MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
This multitool utilizes a variable high speed motor. It is wired
for operation on 230-240 volts, 50-60 Hz. Always check that
the supply voltage is the same as the voltage indicated on the
nameplate of the tool (tools with a rating of 230V or 240V can
also be connected to a 220V supply).
