IMPORTANT: This appliance is not intended
for use by persons (including children) with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities
may be different or reduced, or lack of experi-
ence or knowledge, unless such persons are su-
pervised or trained to operate the product by
a person responsible for their safety. Children
should be supervised to ensure they do not use
the devices as toys.
TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
tool for the application. The correct tool will
do the job better and more safely at the rate
that it was designed to work at.
Do not use tools if switch does not turn it on
or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories or storing the tool. This preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of accidental
starting of the tool.
When the power tool is not in use, store it out
of the reach of children, and do not allow in-
dividuals who are not familiar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate it. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands on untrained
users.
Maintain the power tool. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, broken parts,
and any other condition that may affect the
operation of the power tool. If it is damaged,
have it repaired before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Check for misalignment or bonding of moving
parts, breakage parts, and any other condition
that may affect the tools operation. If you find
a damaged tool, take it to service before use it.
Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer of your model. Suitable ac-
cessories for one tool, may become hazardous
when are used on another tool.
Keep cutting tools, sharpened and clean. Cut-
ting tools in good condition with sharpened
edges, are less likely to stuck in workpieces or
easier to control.
Is recommendable to use a safety device suit-
able, such a thermal and differential switch
when you are using an electric equipment.
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by quali-
fied repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified personnel could re-
sult in a risk of injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
ANGLE GRINDERS
• Hold the machine by the isolated rubber
parts when you are operating where the cut-
ting machine may be in contact with a hide
wiring installation or its own cable. Contact
with a ‘live’ wire can expose metal parts of the
machine ‘alive’ and give you an electric shock.
• Always use an adequate blade guard protec
-
tion. This guard provides protection to the
user of the pieces that can be detached of the
abrasive blade.
• The abrasive discs should be used at the
speed indicated on the warning machine label.
Otherwise the discs or accessories that run on
a different speed range can fly and cause in-
juries.
• Remove all adjusting keys or wrenches before
turning the power tool ‘on’. A wrench or a key
that is left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
• Never leave the machine locked on the on po
-
sition. Before to connect to the power supply,
be sure that the switch is in the off position.
• When start the machine leaves it run a few
minutes without load before to use it on a
work piece. Watch the vibration or undulation
it may indicate you a poor installation.
• When operating the grinder, avoid the abra
-
sive disc to bend or break. If this happens, stop
the machine and renew the disc.
• Don’t use damaged discs.
• Don’t use worn discs. Worned discs can cause
a disc explosion and cause serious personal in-
jury. A depressed center abrasive disc must not
be used if worn below 3 inches of diameter.
• Use clamps or other practical means to sup
-
port and secure the workpiece to a stable plat-
form. Holding the workpiece in your hand or
against your body is unstable, and may lead to
