LEGEND
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a)
The plug must fit the socket. Do not modify the plug
in any way. Using original plugs and matching sockets
reduces the risk of electric shock.
b)
Avoid touching earthed elements such as pipes,
heaters, boilers and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electric shock if the earthed device is exposed
to rain, comes into direct contact with a wet surface
or is operating in a damp environment. Water getting
into the device increases the risk of damage to the
device and of electric shock.
c)
Do not touch the device with wet or damp hands.
d)
Use the cable only for its designated use. Never use it
to carry the device or to pull the plug out of a socket.
Keep the cable away from heat sources, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cables
increase the risk of electric shock.
e)
If working with the device outdoors, make sure to use
an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Using an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
f)
If using the device in a damp environment cannot be
avoided, a residual current device (RCD) should be
applied. The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
g)
Do not use the device if the power cord is damaged
or shows obvious signs of wear. A damaged power
cord should be replaced by a qualified electrician or
the manufacturer‘s service centre.
h)
To avoid electric shock, do not immerse the cord, plug
or device in water or other liquids. Do not use the
device on wet surfaces.
SAFETY IN THE WORKPLACE
a)
Make sure the workplace is clean and well lit. A messy
or poorly lit workplace may lead to accidents. Try
to think ahead, observe what is going on and use
common sense when working with the device.
b)
Do not use the device in a potentially explosive
environment, for example in the presence of

with dust.
j)
Remove all adjusting tools or spanners before turning
the device on. A tool or spanner left in the revolving
part of the device may cause injury.
SAFE DEVICE USE
a)
Do not overload the device. Use the appropriate tools
for the given task. A correctly-selected device will
perform the task for which it was designed better and
in a safer manner.
b)
Do not use the device if the ON/OFF switch does not
function properly (does not switch the device on and
off). Devices which cannot be switched on and off
using the ON/OFF switch are hazardous, should not
be operated and must be repaired.
c)
Make sure the plug is disconnected from the socket
before attempting any adjustments, accessory
replacements or before putting the device aside.
Such precautions will reduce the risk of accidentally
activating the device.
d)
When not in use, store in a safe place, away from
children and people not familiar with the device who
have not read the user manual. The device may pose
a hazard in the hands of inexperienced users.
e)
Keep the device in perfect technical condition. Before
each use check for general damage and especially
check for cracked parts or elements and for any other
conditions which may impact the safe operation of
the device. If damage is discovered, hand over the
device for repair before use.
f)
Keep the device out of the reach of children.
g)
Device repair or maintenance should be carried out by
qualified persons, only using original spare parts. This
will ensure safe use.
h)
To ensure the operational integrity of the device, do
not remove factory-fitted guards and do not loosen
any screws.
i)
When transporting and handling the device between
the warehouse and the destination, observe the
occupational health and safety principles for manual
transport operations which apply in the country
where the device will be used.
j)
Avoid situations where the device stops working
during use due to excessive loading. This may result
in overheating of the drive elements and damage to
the device.
k)
Do not touch articulated parts or accessories unless
the device has been disconnected from the power
source.
l)
Do not leave this appliance unattended while it is in
use.
m) Clean the device regularly to prevent stubborn grime
from accumulating.
n)
The specified vibrations emission was measured
using standard measurement methods. Vibrations
emissions may change if the device is used in different
surroundings.
o)
Do not work on two workpieces at the same time.
p)
It is forbidden to interfere with the structure of
the device in order to change its parameters or
construction.
q)
Keep the device away from sources of fire and heat.
r)
When working with the machine, pay special attention
to the kickback phenomenon, which is a sudden
reaction of the machine to the rotating disc being
blocked. The consequence of locking the rotating tool
is the jerk of the machine in the direction opposite
to the disc rotation. The kickback is a consequence of
improper use of the machine.
s)
Do not use parts or accessories not designed to work
with this device, unless they have been indicated by
the manufacturer as compatible.
t)
The rated speed of the accessory must be at least
equal to the maximum speed of the device, otherwise
accessories that rotate faster than the rated speed
may be destroyed.
u)
Parameters of used accessories (discs, sandpaper)
must be in accordance with the technical parameters
indicated in the table; otherwise the device may not
be properly secured and controlled.
v)
Attaching the accessories must be compatible with
the device's mounting hardware.
w)
Accessories not suited to the device's mounting
hardware may lose their stability, over-vibrate, and
the control over them may be lost.
x)
Do not use accessories which are damaged. Before
every use, check their condition in terms of chips,
cracks, tears or excessive wear.
y)
Should you drop the device, check it for damage. After
inspection and replacement of damaged elements, set
the device securely with respect to the user and the
third parties so that all are away from the rotating
elements. Turn on the device at the highest speed
and allow continuous operation for about 1 minute.
Damaged parts during this procedure ought to fall
apart.
z)
Hold the device touching only the insulated handle
surfaces. It is possible you may come across hidden
wiring or hit your own power cord while working.
Contact with the power cord may cause electric shock.
aa) Keep the power cord away from rotating parts. If you
lose control over the device, the cord may be cut or
caught and a limb may be pulled into the rotating
accessories.
bb) Do not put the device away until it stops working and
is switched off. Rotating elements may come into
contact with the surface and rip out the equipment
from the user's grip.
cc) Do not operate the device when worn on the body.
Accidental contact of rotating accessories with clothes
you wear with may cause the rotating elements come
dangerously close to your body.
dd) Do not use accessories that require the use of cooling
substances. The use of water or liquid coolant may
cause electric shock.
ee) Hold the device firmly so that you can resist the force
in the event of a kickback. Use the auxiliary handle, if
available, to obtain maximum control over kickback or
torque during start-up.
ff)
Keep away from rotating parts, those parts may
bounce towards your body.
gg) Do not position yourself body in the direction in which
the kickback can occur. The kickback will direct the
device in the direction opposite to the rotation.
hh) Pay special attention when working corners or sharp
edges. Avoid locking and contact with random objects
while working. It may result in losing control over the
device.
ii)
Do not attach (timber) chainsaws or toothed saw
blades to the device. Such accessories often cause
kickbacks and a loss of control over the device
REMEMBER!
When using the device, protect
children and other bystanders.
