Safety warnings specific for wire brushing
operations
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush
even during ordinary operation.
Do not overstress the
wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire
bristles can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
If the use of a guard is recommended for wire
brushing, do not allow any interference of the wire
wheel or brush with the guard.
Wire wheel or brush
may expand in diameter due to work load and centrifugal
forces.
Additional safety warnings
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are
hidden in the work area or call the local utility
company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines can
lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can
lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes
property damage or may cause an electric shock.
Release the On/Off switch and set it to the off
position when the power supply is interrupted, e. g.,
in case of a power failure or when the mains plug is
pulled.
This prevents uncontrolled restarting.
When working stone, use dust extraction. The
vacuum cleaner must be approved for the extraction
of stone dust.
Using this equipment reduces dust-
related hazards.
Use a cutting guide when cutting stone. Without
sideward guidance, the cutting disc can jam and cause
kickback.
When working with the machine, always hold it
firmly with both hands and provide for a secure
stance.
The power tool is guided more secure with both
hands.
Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are
particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or
explode.
Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do not
touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug
when the cable is damaged while working.
Damaged
cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
3. Machine-specific Safety Warnings

Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by
hand.
3.2. Assembling
Mounting the Protective Devices
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
Protection Guard for Sanding
Place the protection guard 6 onto the spindle collar of the
machine until the encoding keys of the protection guard
agree with the spindle collar. Press and hold the release
lever
1 while doing this.
Press the protection guard 6 onto the spindle collar until
the shoulder of the protection guard is seated against the
flange of the machine, and turn the protection guard until it
can clearly be heard to engage.
Adjust the position of the protection guard 6 to the
requirements of the work process. For this, press the
release lever
1 upward and turn the protection guard 6 to
the required position.
Adjust the protection guard 6 in such a manner that
sparking is prevented in the direction of the operator.
The protection guard 6 may be turned only upon
actuation of the release lever 1! Otherwise the power
tool may not continue to be used under any
circumstances and must be taken to an after-sales
service agent.
Note: The encoding keys on the protection guard 6 ensure
that only a protection guard that fits the machine type can
be mounted.
Protection Guard for Cutting
For cutting metal, always work with the protection
guard for cutting 7.
For cutting stone, always work with the cutting guide
with dust extraction protection guard.
The protection guard for cutting 7 is mounted in the same
manner as the protection guard for sanding 6 .
Auxiliary Handle
Operate your machine only with the auxiliary handle 4.
Screw the auxiliary handle 4 on the right or left of the
machine head depending on the working method.
Vibration-dampening Auxiliary Handle
The auxiliary handle 4 reduces the vibrations, making
operation more comfortable and secure.
Do not make any alterations to the auxiliary handle.
Do not continue to use an auxiliary handle if it is
damaged.
Wear safety goggles.
