b) Ear damage if working without ear protection.
c) Damage to your health caused by swinging your hands and
arms when operating the appliance for longer periods of time or if
the unit is not held or maintained properly.
d) Health injuries which result from swinging hand and arm, in the
event that the device is used over a longer period of time or is not
used and maintained properly.
Warning! During operation, this electric tool generates an
electromagnetic field which, under certain circumstances, may
impair the functionality of active or passive medical implants. To
reduce the risk of serious or lethal injuries, we recommend that
persons with medical implants consult their doctor and the
manufacturer of their medical implant before operating the
machine.
Kickback
Kickback is the sudden reaction from a chopping or blocked
grinder attachment such as a grinding disc, grinding plate, wire
brush etc. Chopping or blocking leads to sudden stopping of the
rotating attachment. This causes an uncontrolled electric tool to
accelerate in a direction counter to the rotational direction of the
attachment tool. If, for example, a grinding disc cuts into the
workpiece or blocks it, the edge of the grinding disc that digs into
the workpiece can get caught and, through that, break off the
grinding disc or cause a kickback. The grinding disc then moves
towards or away from the operator, depending on the direction of
rotation of the disc at the blocked spot. Here, the grinding discs
can also break. A kickback is caused by wrongly or incorrectly
operating the electric tool. It can be avoided by suitable cautionary
measures, such as described below.
a) Hold the electric tool very firmly and bring your body and
your arm into a position in which you can resist the kickback force.
Always use the supplemental handle if available to give you the
best control over kickback force or reaction time during
acceleration. The operator can master the kickback and reaction
force through suitable precautions.
b) Never bring your hands near a rotating attachment tool.
The attachment tool can run over your hand in the kickback.
c) Keep your body away from the area in which the electric
tool would move during a kickback.
The kickback drives the
electric tool in the counter-direction to the rotation of the grinding
disc at the blocked spot.
d) Work particularly cautiously in corner areas or where there
are sharp corners etc.
Prevent the attachment tools from
recoiling from the workpiece and jamming. The rotating
attachment tool tends to jam when near corners, sharp edges or
when it recoils from such. This causes a loss of control or
kickback.
e) Do not use chain or toothed saw blades. Such attachment
tools frequently cause a kickback or loss of control over the
electric tool.
Special safety instructions for grinding and cutting
a) Use only grinders which have been approved for your
electric tool and the protective hood intended for these
grinders
. Grinders which are not intended for the electric tool
may not be sufficiently shielded and are unsafe.
b) Depressed centre grinding wheels must be pre- mounted
in such a way that their grinding surface does not protrude
over the level of the edge of the protective cover.
An
incorrectly mounted grinding wheel which protrudes beyond the
level of the edge of the protective cover cannot be adequately
shielded.
c) The protective hood must be securely attached to the
electric tool and adjusted so that the greatest level of safety
is reached
, i.e., the smallest possible amount of the grinder is
exposed to the operator. The protective hood should protect the
operator from broken bits and accidental contact with the
grinder.
d) Grinders may only be used for the recommended
attachment options.
For example: Never grind with the
side surface of a cutting disc. Cutting discs are for cutting
material using the edge of the disc. Pushing sideways on
these grinders can break them.
e) Always use undamaged clamping flanges of the
correct size and shape for the grinding disc you
selected.
Suitable flanges support the grinding disc and
thus reduce the danger of the grinding disc breaking.
Flanges for cutting discs can be distinguished from flanges
for other grinding discs.
f) Do not use worn grinding discs for larger electric
tools.
Grinding discs for larger electric tools are not set up
for the higher rotation speeds of smaller electric tools and
can break.
Other special safety instructions for cutting grinding
a) Avoid blocking the cutting disc or pressing down
too hard.
Do not make any excessively deep cuts.
Overloading the cutting disc increases wear and its
tendency to tilt or block and, with that, to kickback or break
the grinder.
b) Avoid the area in front of and behind the rotating
cutting disc.
When you move the cutting disc by itself in
the workpiece, in the event that the electric tool kicks back
with the rotating disc, it can spin directly towards you.
c) If the cutting disc jams, or you interrupt your work,
switch the device off and hold it until the disc has
come to a full stop
. Never try to pull the cutting disc out of
the cut while it is still running, because it can kick back.
Identify and correct the cause of the jamming.
d) Do not switch the electric tool on again as long as it
is in the workpiece.
Allow the cutting disc to first reach its
full rotational speed before you carefully resume with the
cutting. Otherwise, the disc may catch, spring away from
the workpiece or cause a kickback.
e) Support plates or workpieces to reduce the risk of
kickback from a jammed cutting disc.
Large workpieces
may bend under their own weight. The workpiece must be
supported on both sides of the disc, near the cutting disc
as well as also at the edge.
f) Be particularly careful for pocketcuts in existing
walls or other areas where you cannot see what is
there.
The cutting disc may cause a kickback when it cuts
into gas or water lines, electrical lines or other hidden
objects.
Additional safety instructions for sanding
Special safety instructions for sanding:
•
Do not use overly large sandpaper sheets; follow the
manufactur
er‘s information for sandpaper sizes.
Sandpaper sheets which extend beyond the sanding plate
can cause injuries and can block, tear the sandpaper, or
cause kickback.
Additional safety instructions for working with wire
brushes
Special safety instructions for working with wire brushes:
•
Be aware that the wire brushes also lose wire pieces
during typical use. Do not overload the wires by
pressing down too hard.
Flying wire pieces can very
easily penetrate thin clothing and/or your skin.
•
If a protective hood is recommended, do not allow
the wire brushes and the protective hood to touch
each other.
The diameter of plate and cup brushes can
enlarge if too much pressure and centrifugal force is
exerted.
