
Support panels or any oversized
workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel
pinching and kickback. Large workpieces
tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the
workpiece near the line of cut and near the
edge of the workpiece on both sides of the
wheel.

Use extra caution when making a “pocket
cut” into existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding wheel may cut gas or water
pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can
cause kickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding
Operations

Do not use excessively oversized sanding
disc paper. Follow manufacturers
recommendations, when selecting
sanding paper. Larger sanding paper
extending beyond the sanding pad
presents a laceration hazard and may
cause snagging, tearing of the disc, or
kickback.
Additional safety instructions

The mains voltage and the voltage
specifications on the rating plate must
correspond.

Do not press the spindle lock until the
grinding tool stops.
Noise and Vibration
The noise and vibration values have been
determined in accordance with EN 60745.
The A evaluated noise level of the power tool
is typically:
– Sound pressure level L
pA
: 93 dB(A)
– Sound power level L
WA
: 104 dB(A)
– Uncertainty K: K = 3 dB
Total vibration value when grinding surface
(roughing):
– Emission value a
h
: 5.9 m/s
2
– Uncertainty K: 1.5 m/s
2
Total vibration value when grinding with
sanding sheet:
– Emission value a
h
: 5.0 m/s
2
– Uncertainty K: 1.5 m/s
2
CAUTION!
The indicated measurements refer to new
power tools. Daily use causes the noise and
vibration values to change.
NOTE
The vibration emission level given in this infor-
mation sheet has been measured in accor-
dance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one
tool with another. It may be used for a prelimi-
nary assessment of exposure. The declared
vibration emission level represents the main
applications of the tool.
However if the tool is used for different appli-
cations, with different accessories or poorly
maintained, the vibration emission may differ.
This may significantly increase the exposure
level over the total working period. For a
precise estimation of the vibration load the
times should also be considered during which
the power tool is switched off or even running,
but not actually in use.
This may significantly decrease the exposure
level over the total working period. Identify
additional safety measures to protect the
operator from the effects of vibration such as:
maintain the tool and the accessories, keep
the hands warm, organisation of work
patterns.
Caution!
Wear ear protection at a sound pressure
above 85 dB(A).
