Safety instructions for table-top grinding ma-
chines
a) Do not use a damaged accessory. Check tool
attachments such as grinding discs for chip-
ping and cracks before each use. Once you
have checked and used the tool attachment,
ensure that you and all other persons in the
vicinity remain outside the plane of the rotat-
ing tool attachment and allow the device to run
for 1 min. at the maximum speed. Damaged tool
attachments usually break during this test period.
b) The permissible rotational speed for tool at-
tachments must be at least as high as the max-
imum speed cited on the electric tool. Accesso-
ries that rotate faster than permitted can break and
fly off at high speed.
c) Never grind on the side surfaces of the grind-
ing disc. Grinding on the side surfaces can cause
the grinding disc to break and fall apart.
Safety advice relating specifically to bench grind-
ers
• Do not touch the mains lead if it becomes damaged
or cut through while you are using the device. Pull
the plug out of the mains socket immediately and
have the device repaired by a suitably qualified per-
son or at your service centre.
• Do not operate the device if it is damp and do not
use it in a damp environment.
• If you use the device outdoors, always connect it
through a residual current device (RCD) with a max-
imum trip current of 30 mA. If using an extension
lead, always use one that is approved for outdoor
use.
• If a dangerous situation arises, pull the mains plug
immediately out of the mains socket.
• Always work with the mains lead leading away from
the rear of the device.
• Danger of fire from flying sparks!
• Grinding metal creates flying sparks. For this rea-
son, always make sure that nobody is placed in any
danger and that there are no inflammable materials
near the working area.
Warning! Noxious fumes!
Working with harmful / noxious dusts represents a risk
to the health of the person operating the device and to
anyone near the work area.
• Wear protective glasses, hearing protection, dust
protection mask and protective gloves.

Danger of burns!
The workpiece gets hot during grinding. Never touch
the part you are grinding. Allow the workpiece to cool
sufficiently first. When grinding for longer periods, stop
grinding from time to time and allow the workpiece to
cool before continuing. Do not operate the device for
continuous periods exceeding 10 minutes.
• The double grinding machine is intended for dry
grinding of the surfaces of metal objects. The de-
vice may only be used for dry grinding.
• Do not grind materials containing asbestos. Asbes-
tos is a known carcinogen.
• Do not use damaged grinding wheels.
• Only use grinding wheels with details that corr spond
with those given on the device ratin plate. The circum-
ferential speed should be equal to or greater than the
value given on the device rating plate.
• Adjust the eye guard mounts (spark deflectors) and
the eye guards periodically so that wear on the
grinding wheels can be evened out. Keep the gap
as small as possible.
• Avoid contact with the moving grinding wheel.
• Never leave the device working unattended.
• Never use the device for a purpose for which it was
not intended.
• Before you insert the mains plug into the socket, al-
ways check that the device is switched off.
• Always switch the device on before bringing the
workpiece into contact with the grinding wheel. Af-
ter grinding, lift off the workpiece before switching
the device off.
• Hold the workpiece firmly with both hands at all
times when working.
• Always keep proper footing and balance.
• After you have finished grinding metal, allow the
grinding wheel(s) to come to a standstill.
• When taking a break from your work, before carry-
ing out any tasks on the device itself and when you
are not using the device, always pull the mains plug
out of the mains socket.
• Handle the device carefully and treat it with respect.
Always keep the device clean, dry and free of oil
or grease.
• Remain alert at all times! Always watch what you
are doing and proceed with caution. Do not use the
device if you cannot concentrate or you are feel-
ing unwell.
• Store grinding wheels in such a way that they are
not subject to mechanical loads or damaging envi-
ronmental influences.
• Do not use damaged or unshaped wheels.
