the tool in direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at
the point of snagging.
u
Use special care when working corners, sharp edges
etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory.
Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to
snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or
kickback.
u
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or
toothed saw blade.
Such blades create frequent kick-
back and loss of control.
Safety Warnings specific for Polishing operations
u
Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet
or its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck away or
trim any loose attachment strings.
Loose and spinning
attachment strings can entangle your fingers or snag on
the workpiece.
Additional safety information
Wear safety goggles.
u
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are
hidden in the work area or call the local utility com-
pany 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 dam-
age or may cause an electric shock.
u
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.
