•
When the cutting disc is binding or when
interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off
the
power tool and hold the power tool
motionless
until the disc comes to a complete
stop. Never
attempt to remove the cutting
disc from the cut
while the disc is in motion
otherwise kickback
may occur.
Investigate
and take corrective action to eliminate the
cause of wheel binding.
•
Do not restart the cutting operation in the
workpiece. Let the disc reach full speed and
carefully reenter the cut.
The disc may bind,
walk up or kickback if the power tool is
restarted in the workpiece.
•
Support panels or any oversized workpiece to
minimize the risk of disc pinching and
kickback.
Large workpieces tend to sag under
their own weight. Supports must be placed
under the workpiece near the line of cut and
near the edge of the workpiece on both sides
of the disc.
•
Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut”
into
existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding cutting disc may cut gas or
water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that
can cause kickback.
5.5 Safety warnings specific for sanding
operations:
•
Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc
paper. Follow manufacturers
recommendations
when selecting sanding
paper.
Larger sanding paper extending beyond
the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard
and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc
or kickback.
5.6 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.
5.7 Additional safety instructions:
WARNING
– Always wear protective
goggles.
•
Use elastic cushioning layers if they have been
supplied with the grinding media and if required.
•
Observe the specifications of the tool or
accessory manufacturer!
•
Accessories must be stored and handled with
care in accordance with the manufacturer‘s
instructions.
•
Ensure that accessories are installed in
accordance with the manufacturer‘s instructions.
•
The tool continues running after the machine has
been switched off.
•
The workpiece must lay flat and be secured
against slipping, e.g. using clamps. Large
workpieces must be sufficiently supported.
•
If accessories with threaded inserts are used, the
end of the spindle may not touch the base of the
hole
on the sanding tool. Make sure that the thread in
the accessory is long enough to accommodate
the full length of the spindle.
•
The thread in the accessory must match the
thread on the spindle. See chapter 7. Technical
data for more information on the spindle length
and thread.
•
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not
be used.
•
A damaged or cracked side handle must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a
defective side handle.
•
Only use the machine if the protective cover is in
place.
•
Always guide the machine with both hands on the
handles provided.
5.8 Special safety instructions for mains powered
machines:
•
Pull the plug out of the socket before making
any adjustments, changing tools, carrying out
maintenance or cleaning.
•
Before connecting the mains plug, make sure
that the machine is switched off.
•
Use of a fixed extractor system is
recommended.
•
Always install an RCD with a maximum trip
current of 30 mA upstream. If the power tool
is shut down via the RCD, it must be checked
and cleaned. See chapter 13. Maintenance.
