electric shock.
WARNING!
NOXIOUS FUMES!
Working with harmful / noxious dusts represents
a risk to the health of the person operating the
device and to anyone near the work area.
For longer periods of cutting or grind-
ing metal or stone materials which
give rise to dusts that are hazardous
to health, the device must be connected
to a suitable external dust extraction
device.
Ensure that there is adequate ventila-
tion when working on plastic, paint,
varnish etc.
Do not soak the materials or the sur-
face you are about to work on with
liquids containing solvents.
DANGER OF INJURY! Wear close-fitting
clothing and keep long hair inside a
hairnet or suitable headwear.
For safety reasons this device must
always be used with the auxiliary
handle
6 in place.
The adjustable disc guard cover 7
must always be in place when work-
ing with roughing, grinding or cutting
discs.
Otherwise there could be danger of in-
jury.
Use the vacuum dust extraction facility
if your work generates high amounts
of dust. Use suction devices particular-
ly approved for the purpose.
Use permitted consumables and tools
only. Check that the speed given on the
discs is greater or equal to the rated
speed of the device.
Take note of the direction of rotation
and always hold the device in such a
way that the sparks and grinding de-
bris are thrown away from your body.
Otherwise there could be danger of injury.
Make sure that the dimensions of the
disc are suitable for the device and
that the disc is of a type that fits prop-
erly on to the mounting flange
15 .
Advice on use
Note!
Discs must be used only for their recom-
mended purposes, otherwise they could disintegrate,
become damaged or cause accidents.
Roughing:
Never use cutting discs for
roughing or grinding!
Move the angle grinder using even
pressure to and fro over the workpiece.
Hold the roughing or grinding disc at
a flat angle to the workpiece when
working on a soft material. Use a
slightly steeper angle for harder ma-
terials.
Disc-cutting:
Never use roughing or
grinding discs for cutting!
Only use certified fibre-reinforced cut-
ting or grinding discs
approved for use at
circumferential speeds of not less than 80 m / s.
CAUTION!
The disc continues to rotate after
the device has been switched off. Do not at-
tempt to slow it down by pressing on the side
of the disc.
Securely support the workpiece.
Use
clamps or a vice to grip the workpiece firmly.
This is much safer than holding it in your hand.
Switch the device off and allow it to
come to a complete standstill before
you put it down.
Unlock the ON / OFF switch immedi-
ately 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 inadvertent-
ly started up again.
Use the device for dry cutting or dry
grinding only.
The auxiliary handle 6 must be in place
whenever the device is being used.
Do not work on materials containing
asbestos.
Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
