g)
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Using a dust
extraction unit can reduce hazards caused by dust.
h)
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of power tools allow you to become compla-
cent and ignore power tool safety principles.
A careless action can cause severe injury within a
fraction of a second.

Power tool use and care
a)
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.
b)
Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that can-
not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c)
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing tool attachments, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures re-
duce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d)
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.
e)
Maintain electric tools and accessories with
care. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any oth-
er condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool re-
paired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g)
Use power tools, accessories and tool attach-
ment, etc. according to these instructions.
Take 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.
h)
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.

Service
a)
Only have your power tool repaired by quali-
fied specialists and only with original spare
parts. This ensures that safety of the electric tool
is maintained.
m ATTENTION!
This power tool generates an electromagnetic field dur-
ing operation. This field can impair active or passive
medical implants under certain circumstances. In or-
der to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries, we
recommend that persons with medical implants consult
with their physician and the manufacturer of the medi-
cal implant prior to operating the machine.
Safety instructions for table-top grinding machines
a)
Never use damaged tool attachments. Check
tool attachments such as grinding discs for
chipping 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 attach-
ments must be at least as high as the maximum
speed cited on the electric tool. Accessories
which rotate faster than the maximum permissible
rate can break and throw pieces into the air.
c)
Note that wire brushes lose pieces of wire even
during normal use. Do not overtax the wires by
applying too much contact pressure. Pieces of
wire that fly off can easily penetrate thin clothing
and/or the skin.
d)
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.
Device-specific safety instructions for bench
grinders
• Do not touch the mains cable if it is damaged or cut
during operation. Immediately disconnect the mains
plug and then have the device repaired exclusively
by a specialist or the responsible service centre.
• Do not operate the device when it is damp or in a
damp environment.
• When working outdoors, connect the device via a
residual current device (RCD) with a maximum trig-
ger current of 30 mA. Only use an extension cable
approved for outdoor use.
