Noise/Vibration Information
Noise emission values determined according to
EN 60745-2-3 .
Typically the A-weighted noise level of the power tool are: 93
dB(A); sound power level 104 dB(A). Uncertainty K = 3 dB.

The vibration level given in these instructions has been
measured in accordance with a standardised measuring pro-
cedure and may be used to compare power tools. It can also
be used for a preliminary estimation of exposure to vibra-
tion.
The stated vibration level applies to the main applications of
the power tool. However, if the power tool is used for differ-
ent applications, with different application tools or poorly
maintained, the vibration level may differ. This can signific-
antly increase the exposure to vibration over the total work-
ing period.
To estimate the exposure to vibration accurately, the times
when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not ac-
tually being used should also be taken into account. This can
significantly reduce the exposure to vibration over the total
working period.
Implement additional safety measures to protect the oper-
ator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the
power tool and application tools, keeping the hands warm,
and organising workflows correctly.
Fitting
Fitting Protective Equipment
u
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
work on the power tool.
Note: If the grinding disc breaks during operation or the
holding fixtures on the protective guard/power tool become
damaged, the power tool must be sent to the after-sales ser-
vice immediately; see the "After-Sales Service and Applica-
tion Service" section for addresses.
Protective guard for grinding
Place the protective guard (6) on the spindle collar. Adjust
the position of the protective guard (6) to meet the require-
ments of the operation. Lock the protective guard (6) by
tightening the locking screw (7) using the combination
wrench (4) .
u
Adjust the protective guard (6) such that sparking in
the direction of the operator is prevented.
Note: The coding cams on the protective guard (6) ensure
that only a protective guard that is suitable for the power
tool can be fitted.
Protective guard for cutting
u
Always use the protective guard for cutting (13) when
cutting with bonded abrasives.
u
Provide sufficient dust extraction when cutting stone.
The protective guard for cutting (13) is fitted in the same
way as the protective guard for grinding (6) .
Side handle
u
Do not operate your power tool without the side
handle
(3) .
Screw the side handle (3) on the left or right of the machine
head depending on how your are working.
Hand guard
u
Always fit the hand guard (15) when working with the
rubber sanding plate (16) or with the cup brush/disc
brush/flap disc.
Attach the hand guard (15) to the side handle (3) .
Fitting the abrasive tools
u
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
work on the power tool.
u
Do not touch grinding and cutting discs until they have
cooled down.
The discs can become very hot while work-
ing.
Clean the grinding spindle (5) and all the parts to be fitted.
Lock the grinding spindle with the spindle lock button (1)
before clamping and releasing the abrasive tools.
