Connect machines used outdoors via a resid-
ual current device (RCD) with a maximum trig-
gering current of 30 mA. Use only extension
cables that are intended for outdoor use.
When working with the machine, always hold it
firmly with both hands and make sure you are
in a secure standing position.
Always direct the cable to the rear away from
the machine.
Always switch off the machine and allow it to
come to a stop before putting it down.
Insert the power plug only when the machine
is switched off.
In case of mains failure or when the main plug
is pulled, unlock the On/Off switch immedi-
ately and turn it to the off position. This pre-
vents uncontrolled restarting.
The machine should only be used only for dry
cutting/grinding.
Hold electric tools by their insulated han-
dles whenever there is the possibility of
touching hidden wires or the tools‚ own
cords while using them.
Touching a "live" wire can transfer the voltage
to the exposed metal parts of the tool and give
the operator an electric shock.
The protective hood 5 must be mounted when
working with roughing or cutting discs. When
working with the rubber backing plate 11 or
with the cup brush 14 , the hand protector 10
(optional extra) should be mounted.
When working with stone, use a vacuum
cleaner for removing dust. The vacuum
cleaner must be approved for removing ma-
sonry dust. When cutting stone, use the cutting
guide.
Don't work with materials containing asbestos.
Use only grinding tools whose allowable speed
is at least as high as the idling speed of the
machine.
Check grinding tools before use. The grinding
tool must be properly mounted and turn freely.
Perform a test run for at least 30 seconds with-
out load. Do not use damaged, out-of-round or
vibrating grinding tools.

Protect the grinding wheel from impact, shock
and grease.
Apply the machine to the workpiece only when
switched on.
Keep hands away from rotating grinding tools.
Pay attention to the direction of rotation. Al-
ways hold the machine so that sparks and
grinding dust fly away from the body.
When grinding metal, flying sparks are pro-
duced. Take care that no persons are endan-
gered. Because of a possible fire hazard, no
combustible materials should be nearby (spark
flying zone).
Be careful when cutting grooves, e. g. in load-
carrying walls: See the information on statics.
Do not drill, saw or cut in blind areas where
there could be hidden electric, gas or water
lines. Use the appropriate detectors to find
these lines in the work area or call the local
utility company for assistance.
Touching electric lines may cause fire or elec-
tric shock. Striking a gas line will probably re-
sult in an explosion. Breaking into a water pipe
will cause property damage or may cause an
electric shock.
Blocking the cutting disc leads to a strong jerk-
ing reaction of the machine. If this happens,
switch off the machine immediately.
Pay attention to the dimensions of the grinding
disc. The mounting hole diameter must fit the
mounting flange 7 without play. Do not use re-
ducer pieces or adapters.
Never use cutting discs for rough grinding. Do
not exert any lateral pressure on the cutting
discs.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions re-
garding mounting and use of grinding tools.
Caution! The grinding wheel keeps running af-
ter the machine has been switched off.
Do not tighten the machine in a vise.
Never allow children to use the machine.
Bosch can only guarantee a flawless function-
ing of the machine if the original accessories
intended for it are used.
