Cutting discs
Never use roughing or grinding
discs for cutting!
J
Only use certified fibre-reinforced cutting or
grinding discs approved for use at circumferen-
tial speeds of not less than 80 m/s.
m Caution! The disc continues to rotate after the
device has been switched off. Do not attempt
to slow it down by pressing on the side of the
disc.
J
Securely support the workpiece. Use clamps or
a vice to grip the workpiece firmly. This is much
safer than holding it in your hand.
J
Switch the device off and allow it to come to a
complete standstill before you put it down.
J
Unlock the ON/OFF switch immediately if a
power failure occurs or the plug is pulled out of
the mains socket. Place the switch in the OFF
position. This prevents the device from being
inadvertently started up again.
J
Use the device for dry cutting or dry grinding
only.
J
The auxiliary handle
5
must be in place
whenever the device is being used.
J
Do not work on materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
A tip! Using the device safely.
m Danger!
Always guide the
device through the workpiece
against the direction of rotation
of the disc. If you work in the
other direction there is the risk of kickback. The
device may be forced out of the cut.
J
Always switch on the device before placing it
against the workpiece. After cutting or grind-
ing, always lift the device from the workpiece
before switching it off.
J
When working always hold the device securely
with both hands (see Fig. D). Always keep
proper footing and balance.
J
For the best grinding performance move the de-
vice evenly to and fro over the workpiece main-
taining an angle of 15° to 30° (between
grinding disc and workpiece).
J
When working on inclined surfaces do not
press the device hard down on to the work-
piece. If the speed slows greatly, use less pres-
sure. This will allow you to work more effective-
ly and safely. If the device suddenly stops due
to it becoming retarded or trapped, pull the
mains plug from the socket immediately.
J
Cutting: Advance the device at an appropriate
rate. Do not incline the cutting disc.
J
Roughing, grinding and cutting discs get hot
during use – allow them to cool fully before
touching them.
J
Never use the device for a purpose for which it
was not intended.
J
Before you insert the mains plug into the socket,
always check that the device is switched off.
J
If a dangerous situation arises, pull the mains
plug immediately out of the mains socket.
Ensure that the device and the mains plug are
easily accessible and can be reached quickly
in an emergency.
J
When taking a break from your work, before
carrying out any tasks on the device itself and
when you are not using the device, always pull
the mains plug out of the mains socket.
Always keep the device clean, dry and free of
oil or grease.
J
Remain alert at all times! Always watch what
you are doing and proceed with caution. Do
not use the device if you cannot concentrate or
you are feeling unwell.
Use
Operation
Take note of the mains voltage! The voltage must
agree with that shown on the device’s rating plate
(equipment shown as 230 V can also be connected
to 220 V).
