SAFE USE AND OPERATION OF THE GRINDER
• Use extra care when working into a corner because a
sudden, sharp movement of the grinder may be
experienced when the wheel contacts a secondary
surface or a surface edge.
• Don't expose the tool to rain or snow. Don't use the
tool in damp locations or in an environment with
explosive or corrosive gas.
• Keep your work area well lit.
• Make sure you are well balanced when using the tool
and you have secure footing. Don't use the
tool when you are tired.
• Keep long hair away from the grinder.
• Always inspect the grinder before use – have any damage
repaired by an authorised Tools service agent.

before the switch is turned on.
• Keep the guard in place. Do not use if guard is
missing or damaged.
• Use only discs having a maximum operating speed
at least as high as "No Load Speed" marked on the
nameplate.
• Check the disc carefully for cracks or damage before
operation. Replace cracked or damaged discs
