Safety instructions for all

applications

Common safety instructions for
grinding and cutting:
• This electric tool is to be used as
a grinder and cutting grinder.
Follow all safety instructions,
directives, illustrations and facts
which you receive with the de-
vice. If you do not follow these instruc-
tions, an electrical shock, fire and/or
serious injury may occur.
• This electric tool is not suitable
for sanding, wire brushing and
polishing. Using the electric tool in
ways for which it is not intended may
cause hazards and injuries.
• Do not use any accessories that
are not specifically intended and
recommended for this electric
tool by the manufacturer. Simply
because an accessory can be attached
to your electric tool does not guarantee
safe operation.
• The allowable rotation speed of
the attachment tools must be at
least as high as the highest rota-
tion speed indicated on the elec-
tric tool. Accessories that run faster
than the allowable speed can break
and fly apart.
• The outside diameter and thick-
ness of the attachment tool must
correspond to the dimensions
indicated for your electric tool.
Attachment tools which are wrongly
dimensioned cannot be sufficiently
shielded or controlled.
• Attachment tools with threaded
attachment must fit the thread-
ing of the grinding spindle
30
exactly. For attachment tools
which are mounted through a
flange, the diameter of the hole
in the attachment tool must fit
the mounting diameter of the
flange. Attachment tools which can-
not be precisely attached to the electric
tool turn unevenly, vibrate very strongly
and can ultimately lead to a loss of
control.
• Never use damaged attachment
tools. Check attachment tools
such as grinding discs for chip-
ping or cracks, grinding plates
for cracks, wear or strong abra-
sion before using them. If the
electric tool or the attachment
tool falls off, check whether it is
damaged or use an undamaged
attachment tool. If you have
checked the attachment tool and
attached it, keep yourself and
any nearby persons beyond the
level of the rotating attachment
tool and allow the device to run
for 1 minute at the highest rota-
tional speed. Damaged tools usually
break during this test period.
• Wear personal safety equip-
ment. Depending on the applica-
tion, use full face shields, eye
protection or safety goggles. In
so far as it is appropriate, wear
dust masks, ear protection,
gloves or special aprons which
keep small grinding and mate-
rial particles away from you.
Eyes should be protected from the
foreign matter which can be caused to
fly during the various applications. Dust
or breathing masks should filter the dust
that is created during operation. If you
are exposed to loud noise for a long
