designed to remove material with
the edge of the disc. Lateral forc-
es working on these grinding tools
may break them.
e
Always use undamaged tension
ing flanges in the correct size
and shape for the sanding disc
you have selected.
Suitable
flanges support the sanding disc
and thus reduce the danger of the
disc breaking. Flanges for cutting
wheels may differ from flanges for
other sanding discs.
f
Do not use worn sanding discs
from larger electrical tools.
Sanding discs for larger electrical
tools are not designed to handle
the higher revolutions of smaller
tools and may break.
Additional safety notes with re
gard to abrasive cutting:
a
Avoid blocking the cutting wheel
or employing too great a pres
sure. Do not execute any exces
sively deep cuts.
Overloading the
cutting wheel increases the wear
and the tendency to tilt or block and
thus the possibility of kick back or
breaking of the grinding tool.
b
Avoid the area in front and be
hind the rotating cutting wheel.
If you move the cutting wheel
away from you within the tool, in
the event of the electrical tool
kicking back, the turning wheel
may be thrown in your direction.
c
If the cutting wheel blocks or
you stop working, switch the
unit off and hold it still until the
wheel has come to a standstill.
Never attempt to pull a running
cutting wheel out of the cut, this
may cause kick back.
Work out
and eliminate the cause of the
blockage.
d
Do not switch the electrical tool
back on with it still in the work
piece. Wait until the cutting
wheel has reached the full revo
lutions before you carefully con
tinue with the cut.
Otherwise the
wheel may get caught, jump out of
the workpiece or cause kick back.
e
Support boards or large work
pieces to reduce the risk of kick
back caused by a jammed cutting
wheel.
Large workpieces may bend
under their own weight. The work-
piece should be supported on both
sides, both in the vicinity of the cut
and at the edge.
f
Be particularly careful when car
rying out a „plunge cut“ into an
existing wall or an area you can‘t
see into.
The plunging cutting
wheel may hit gas or water pipes,
electrical cables or other objects
and cause kick back.

relating specifically to
the equipment
CAUTION! A spindle lock is lo
cated on the upper side of the
unit. Never press the spindle lock
while the grinding body is rotating.
