ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR YOUR
PURE 18V ANGLE GRINDER
WARNING: The use of a hand held Angle
Grinder poses intrinsic risks to the operator.
You should first consider if a different
machine is more appropriate
for the task at hand. Observation of all of
the following rules is essential for the safe
operation of this machine. This machine
must not be used for cutting operations;
it is a grinding machine only.
1. Do not expose to rain or water.
2. Do not drop, shake or strike the battery.
3. Wear hearing protection when
necessary.
Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
4. Cutting/Grinding discs and
accessories can become very hot.
Take care when changing or handling
any discs or accessories.
3. Recharge the battery only with the
charger specified by the manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.
4. Use this power tool only with specially
designated battery packs.
Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
5. When the battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal objects
like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects that can
make a connection from one terminal
to another.
Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.
6. Under extreme conditions electrolyte
may be leak from the battery.
If contact
accidentally occurs, flush your skin with
water. If electrolyte contacts your eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Electrolyte
from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
7. Hold the tool by the insulated gripping
surfaces, especially when performing an
operation where the Disc may contact
hidden wiring.
If the Disc contacts a ‘live’
wire, exposed metal parts of the power tool
could become ‘live’ and give the operator
an electric shock.
8. If possible, use clamps or a vice
to hold your work.
9. When cutting into walls, floors or
similar areas, make sure, as far as
possible, that there are no services
(gas or water pipes, electric cables etc)
in the path of the blade.
Striking hidden
services could cause injury to the user and
damage to the property.
10. Always remove the Grinder battery
before changing the disc.
Never use
damaged or distorted discs. Only use discs
that comply with EN12413 or EN13236, and
ensure that the disc used is suitable for the
no load speed of the Angle Grinder. Only
discs that are specifically designed for use
in hand held Angle Grinders should be
used. Check the date on the disc to ensure
that the disc is not ‘time expired’.
11. Always allow the disc to come to a
complete halt before putting it down.
A running tool may bounce uncontrollably if
the disc contacts any surface.
12. Always consider the work environment
and wear the appropriate PPE (Personal
Protection Equipment).
This could include
dust masks, eye protection, aprons, gloves,
safety footwear and knee pads if working at
floor level etc.
