Do not position your body in the area where
power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kick-
back will propel the tool in direction opposite
to the wheel's movement at the point of snag-
ging.
Use special care when working corners, sharp
edges, etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing
have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory
and cause loss of control or kickback.
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade
or toothed saw blade. Such blades create fre-
quent kickback and loss of control over the
power tool.
Safety warnings specific for polishing
operations
Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing
bonnet or its attachment strings to spin
freely. Tuck away or trim any loose attach-
ment strings. Loose and spinning attachment
strings can entangle your fingers or snag on
the workpiece.
Further safety warnings
Use elastic spacers/liners when these are
provided with the grinding accessory.
Make sure that the application tools are
mounted in accordance with the manufactur-
ers instructions. The mounted application
tools must be able to rotate freely. Incorrectly
mounted application tools can become loose
during operation and be thrown from the
machine.
Handle grinding accessories carefully and
store them according to the manufacturer's
instructions. Damaged grinding accessories
can develop cracks and burst during opera-
tion.
Do not direct the power tool against yourself,
other persons or animals. Danger of injury
from sharp or hot application tools.
Use a stationary extraction system, blow out
ventilation slots frequently and connect a
residual current device (RCD) on the line side.
When working metal under extreme operat-
ing conditions, it is possible for conductive
dust to settle in the interior of the power
tool. The total insulation of the power tool
can be impaired.
This double-insulated power tool is equipped
with a polarized plug (one contact is wider
than the other). The plug will only fit into the
polarized socket outlet in one position. Turn
the plug if it does not fit completely into the
socket outlet. If the plug still does not fit, have
a qualified electrician install a polarized
socket outlet. Do not modify or alter the plug
under any circumstances. Double-insulated
power tools neither require a three-core
power cable nor a power connection with
ground contact.
Operate the power tool only off of power sup-
plies whose voltage and frequency values
correspond with the values on the type plate
of the power tool.
When operating the power tool in a damp
environment, it must be connected via a
ground fault circuit interrupter (g.f.c.i.).
Using special rubber protective gloves and
footwear increase your own safety.
Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
Before mounting or replacing application
tools or accessories, pull the power plug. This
preventive safety measure rules out the dan-
ger of injuries through accidental starting of
the power tool.
Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or
signs onto the power tool. If the insulation is
damaged, protection against an electric shock
will be ineffective. Adhesive labels are recom-
mended.
Always work with the auxiliary handle. The
auxiliary handle ensures reliable guiding of
the power tool.
Before putting into operation, check the
mains connection and the mains plug for
damage.
Recommendation: The tool should always be
supplied with power via a residual current
device (RCD) with a rated current of 30 mA or
less.
