For an accurate estimation of vibration and noise expo-
sure, the durations when the equipment is switched off
or running but not actually in use should also be taken
into account. This may significantly reduce the vibration
and noise exposure over the total working period.

Identify additional safety measures to protect the
operator from the effects of vibration and noise
such as: Maintain the power tool and the accesso-
ries, keep the hands warm, organization of work
patterns.

Handling hazardous dusts

For work procedures with this power tool where
material is removed, dusts develop that can be hazard-
ous to one’s health.
Contact with or inhaling some dust types, e. g. asbestos
and asbestos-containing materials, lead-containing coat-
ings, metal, some wood types, minerals, silicate parti-
cles from materials containing stone, paint solvents,
wood preservatives, antifouling paints for vessels, can
trigger allergic reactions to the operator or bystanders
and/or lead to respiratory infections, cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. The risk from
inhaling dusts depends on the exposition. Use dust
extraction matched appropriately for the developing
dust, as well as personal protective equipment and pro-
vide for good ventilation of the workplace. Leave the
processing of asbestos-containing materials to special-
ists.
Wood and light-metal dust, hot mixtures of grinding
dust and chemical materials can self-ignite under unfa-
vourable conditions or cause an explosion. Avoid
sparking in the direction of the dust collector as well as
overheating of the power tool and the materials being
sanded, empty the dust collector/container in time,
observe the material manufacturer’s working instruc-
tions, as well as the relevant regulations in your country
for the materials being worked.

Operating Instructions.

Do not use the power tool with a cut-off stand.
After heavily straining the power tool, continue to

run it at no-load for several minutes in order to cool
the application tool down.

Mounting/dismounting the application tool
CCG18-125-15 AS (**):

Press the locking button only when the motor is
stopped (see page 8). Otherwise the power tool
may be damaged.
An O-ring is fitted around the centring collar of
clamping flange. If this is missing or damaged, it is

essential that the O-ring is replaced before further use.

Mounting/dismounting the application tool
CCG18-125-15 X AS (**):

Only use original X-LOCK insert tools that are
labelled with the X-LOCK logo. Only original X-

LOCK application tools ensure that the clamping thick-
ness of max. 1.6 mm is maintained. A higher clamping
thickness can lead to insecure clamping, which can
cause the application tool to become loose.

Ensure that the application tool and the holder are
not deformed and are free of debris and particles.
Observe the dimensions of the grinding tools.
Ensure that both X-LOCK latch noses are open

before mounting the X-LOCK application tool. If nec-
essary, clean the area between the two X-LOCK latch
noses.

After mounting, check that the edge of the grind-
ing accessory is not higher than the reference sur-

face and thus correctly mounted. If the edge is higher,
the mount must be cleaned or the grinding accessory
may not be used.

Press the lever (see page 9) only when the motor
is stopped.
Do not switch the power tool on with the clamp-
ing lever open. Otherwise there is a risk of crush-

ing the hand and fingers.

Do not reach into the area of the clamping jaws.
Otherwise there is a risk of crushing the fingers.

Features

The

soft start

is used to reduce torque reaction forces

when switching on and running up the power tool to
the no-load speed.
The

restarting protection

prevents the power tool from

automatically restarting if the power supply is inter-
rupted during operation. In this case, switch off the
power tool, check the power supply and then switch
the power tool on again.
The

electronic overload protection

reduces the risk of

motor damage if the power tool is overloaded. Pro-
longed blocking (> 1 s) of the application tool leads to
automatic switching off of the power tool. Afterwards,
set the switch to the off position, remove the power
tool from the workpiece and check the application tool
for damage. Then, switch the power tool on again.
The

electronic speed preselection

enables the speed to

be adapted to the respective application and the respec-
tive application tool.
The

kickback monitoring

reduces the risk of unex-

pected kickback of the power tool. In this case, the
power tool switches off automatically. Afterwards, set
the switch to the off position, remove the power tool
from the workpiece and check the application tool for
damage. Afterwards, switch the power tool on again.
The

fall down monitoring

reduces the danger posed by

a falling power tool.In this case, the power tool
switches off automatically.Afterwards, set the switch to
the off position and check the application tool for dam-
age. Then, switch the power tool on again.
The power tool is equipped with a

brake system

for

braking down the application tool. This reduces the risk
of accidents.
