The following show the symbols used for the equipment. 
Be sure that you understand their meaning before use. 

  Read instruction manual. 

 

 DOUBLE 

INSULATION 

 

  Only for EU countries 

Do not dispose of electric equipment 
together with household waste material! 
In observance of European Directive 
2002/96/EC on waste electric and 
electronic equipment and its 
implementation in accordance with 
national law, electric equipment that 
have reached the end of their life must 
be collected separately and returned to 
an environmentally compatible recycling 
facility. 

ENE007-2 

Intended use

 

The tool is intended for cutting in masonry and ferrous 
materials with appropriate abrasive cut-off wheel. Follow 
all laws and regulations regarding dust and work area 
health and safety in your country. 

ENF002-2 

Power supply

 

The tool should be connected only to a power supply of 
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can 
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are 
double-insulated and can, therefore, also be used from 
sockets without earth wire. 

ENF100-1 

For public low-voltage distribution systems of 
between 220 V and 250 V.

 

Switching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage 
fluctuations. The operation of this device under 
unfavorable mains conditions can have adverse effects 
to the operation of other equipment. With a mains 
impedance equal or less than 0.22 Ohms it can be 

presumed that there will be no negative effects. The 
mains socket used for this device must be protected with 
a fuse or protective circuit breaker having slow tripping 
characteristics. 

ENA001-2 

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

WARNING! When using electric tools, basic safety 
precautions, including the following, should always 
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock 
and personal injury. Read all these instructions 
before operating this product and save these 
instructions. 

For safe operations: 

1. 

Keep work area clean.

 

Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries. 

2. 

Consider work area environment.

 

Do not expose power tools to rain. Do not use 
power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep work 
area well lit. Do not use power tools where there is 
risk to cause fire or explosion. 

3. 

Guard against electric shock.

 

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded 
surfaces (e.g. pipes, radiators, ranges, 
refrigerators). 

4. 

Keep children away.

 

Do not let visitors touch the tool or extension cord. 
All visitors should be kept away from work area. 

5. 

Store idle tools.

 

When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry, 
high or locked up place, out of reach of children. 

6. 

Do not force the tool.

 

It will do the job better and safer at the rate for 
which it was intended. 

7. 

Use the right tool.

 

Do not force small tools or attachments to do the 
job of a heavy duty tool. Do not use tools for 
purposes not intended; for example, do not use 
circular saws to cut tree limbs or logs.
