Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece.
Let the wheel reach full speed and
carefully re-enter the cut. Otherwise, the wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool
is restarted in the workpiece.
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 specifi c for sanding operations
Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper. Follow manufacturers recommen-
dations, when selecting sanding paper.
Larger sanding paper extending beyond the sand-
ing pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc, or kickback.
Safety warnings specifi c for wire brushing operations
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even during ordinary operation.
Do
not overstress the wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles can easily
penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
If the use of a guard is recommended, do not allow any interference of the wire wheel
or brush with the guard.
Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter due to work load and
centrifugal forces.
Additional safety instructions
Wear appropriate safety goggles and protect the operator’s face, espe-
cially during grinding operation.
Wear dust mask.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility
company for assistance. Contact with live electric lines can lead to fi re and electric shock. Damaging
a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an
electric shock.
In the case of power cut, e.g. after a power failure, or unplugging the cord from the out-
let, the on/off button must be unblocked and set to the “off ” position.
This prevents the
power tool from starting accidentally.
When working with stone, use dust extraction. The vacuum cleaner must be approved
for the extraction of stone dust.
Using this equipment reduces dust-related hazards.
Always hold the power tool fi rmly with both hands and provide for a secure stance.
The
power tool is guided more securely with both hands.
Secure the workpiece.
A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
Keep your workplace clean.
Blends of materials are particularly dangerous. Dust from light
alloys can burn or explode.
Never use the machine with a damaged cord.
Do not touch the damaged cord and pull the
mains plug when the cable is damaged while working. Damaged cables increase the risk of an
electric shock.
