If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used.
Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application.
The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could result in
a hazardous situation.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustra-
tions and specifications provided with this
power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Operations such as polishing are not recom-
mended to be performed with this power tool.
Operations for which the power tool was not designed
may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
Do not use accessories which are not specifi-
cally designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer.
Just because the accessory can be
attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe oper-
ation.
The rated speed of the accessory must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool.
Accessories running faster than their
rated speed can break and fly apart.
The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be within the capacity rating of
your power tool.
Incorrectly sized accessories cannot
be adequately guarded or controlled.
Threaded mounting of accessories must match
the grinder spindle thread. For accessories
mounted by flanges, the arbour hole of the
accessory must fit the locating diameter of the
flange.
Accessories that do not match the mounting
hardware of the power tool will run out of balance,
vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive
wheels for chips and cracks, backing pad for
cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush for
loose or cracked wires. If power tool or acces-
sory is dropped, inspect for damage or install
an undamaged accessory. After inspecting
and installing an accessory, position yourself
and bystanders away from the plane of the
rotating accessory and run the power tool at
maximum no-load speed for one minute.
Dam-
aged accessories will normally break apart during this test
time.
