Any power tool that cannot 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 precautionary 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 power tools and tool attachments.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool's operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained 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 the power tool, tool attachments and tool
bits etc. in accordance with 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.

Safety instructions for all applications
Common safety instructions for grinding, working
with wire brushes, polishing:
a.
This electric tool is to be used as a grinder,
wire brush, polishing. Read all safety warn-
ings, instructions, illustrations and data that
are received with the device. Failure to observe
all the following instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and / or serious injury.
b.
This electric tool is not suitable for hole cut-
ting and cut-off grinding. Operations for which
the power tool was not designed may create a haz-
ard and cause personal injury.
c.
Do not use a tool attachment that has not been
specifically envisaged and recommended by
the manufacturer for this electric tool. Just be-
cause you can attach the accessories to your pow-
er tool does not guarantee they are safe to use.
d.
The maximum speed of the tool attachment
used must be at least as high as the maximum
speed specified for the power tool. Tool attach-
ment that rotate faster than permitted can break
and fly off at high speed.
e.
The external diameter and thickness of the
tool attachment used must comply with the
dimensions of the power tool. Incorrectly di-
mensioned accessory tools cannot be sufficiently
shielded or controlled.
f.
Attachment tools with a thread insert must
match the thread of the grinding spindle ex-
actly. For tool attachments that are mounted
using a flange, the diameter of the hole on the
tool attachment must correspond to the width
of the fitting on the flange. Tool attachments
which are not precisely attached to the electric
tool rotate unevenly, vibrate very strongly and can
cause a loss of control.
g.
Never use damaged tool attachments. Before
each use inspect the tool attachment such as
abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, backing
pad for cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush
for loose or cracked wires. If the power tool or
the tool attachment in use is dropped, check
to see if it is damaged or use an undamaged
tool attachment. When you have checked and
inserted the tool attachment, ensure that you
and any other people in the vicinity remain
outside of the level of the rotating attachment
and allow the tool to rotate at maximum speed
for one minute. Damaged tool attachments nor-
mally break during this test period.
h.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on application, use face shield, safety gog-
gles or safety glasses. Where appropriate, wear
a dust mask, hearing protection, protective
gloves or a special apron that will keep small
grinding and material particles away from you.
The eye protection must be capable of stopping
flying debris generated by various operations.
