being transmitted to the metal parts of the power tool, which
could cause an electric shock.
• Keep the mains cable away from rotating work tools. If you
lose control of the tool, the mains cable could be cut or
pulled in and your hand or whole hand could get caught in
a work tool.
• Never put the power tool down before the working tool has
come to a complete stop. A rotating tool may come into
contact with the surface on which it is put down, so you could
lose control of the power tool.
• Do not carry a power tool while it
contact of clothing with a rotating power tool may cause it to
be pulled in and the power tool to drill into the operator's body.
• Clean the ventilation slots of the power tool regularly. The
motor blower draws dust into the housing
accumulation of metal dust can cause an electrical hazard.
• Do not use the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks
may ignite them.
• Do not use tools that require liquid coolants. The use of water
or other liquid coolants can lead to electric shock.
Rejection and relevant safety tips
Kickback is the sudden reaction of a power tool to the blockage or
obstruction of a rotating tool such as a grinding wheel, sanding pad,
wire brush etc. The snagging or blocking leads to a sudden stop of
the rotating work tool. An uncontrolled power tool will thus be jerked
in the direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the working
tool.
When, for example, the grinding wheel becomes jammed or stuck
in the workpiece, the immersed edge of the grinding wheel can
become blocked and cause it to drop out or eject. The movement
of the grinding wheel (towards or away from the operator) is then
dependent on the direction of movement of the wheel at the point
of blockage. In addition, grinding wheels can also break.
Recoil is a consequence of improper or incorrect use of the power
tool. It can be avoided by taking the appropriate precautions
described below.
• The power tool should be held firmly, with the body and
hands in a position to soften the recoil. If an auxiliary
handle is included as part of the standard equipment, it
should always be used in order to have as much control as
possible over the recoil forces or the recoil moment at
start-up. The operator can control the jerk and recoil
phenomena by taking appropriate precautions.
• Never hold hands near rotating work tools. The working
tool may injure your hand due to recoil.
• Keep away from the range zone where the power tool will
move during recoil. As a result of
moves in the opposite direction to the movement of the
grinding wheel at the point of blockage.
• Be particularly careful when machining corners, sharp edges,
etc. Prevent work tools from being deflected or becoming
jammed. A rotating work tool is more susceptible to jamming
when machining angles, sharp edges or if it is kicked back.
This can become a cause of loss of control or kickback.
• Do not use wood or toothed discs. Work tools of this type
often cause recoil or loss of control of the power tool.
Special safety instructions for grinding and cutting with a
grinding wheel
• Only use a grinding wheel designed for the specific power tool
and a guard designed for the specific grinding wheel. Grinding
wheels that are not tooling for the particular power tool cannot
be sufficiently shielded and are not sufficiently safe.
• Bent sanding discs must be mounted in such a way that no
part of the disc protrudes beyond the edge of the protective
cover. An improperly fitted grinding disc protruding beyond
the edge of the protective cover cannot be sufficiently
protected.
• The guard must be firmly attached to the power tool to
guarantee the greatest possible degree of safety and
positioned so that the part of the grinding wheel exposed
and facing the operator is as small as possible. The guard
protects the operator from debris, accidental contact with
the grinding wheel, as well as sparks that could ignite
clothing.

• Grinding wheels must only be used for the work intended for
them. For example, never grind with the side surface of a cut-
off wheel. Cut-off wheels are designed to remove material
with the edge of the disc. The effect of lateral forces on these
grinding wheels may break them.
• Always use undamaged clamping flanges of the correct size
and shape for the selected grinding wheel. The correct flanges
support the grinding wheel and thus reduce the danger of the
wheel . Flanges for cut-off wheels may differ from those for
other grinding wheels.
• Do not use used grinding wheels from larger power tools.
Grinding wheels for larger power tools are not designed for
the higher RPM that is a characteristic of smaller power
tools and may therefore break.
Additional special safety instructions for grinding wheel cutting
• Avoid jamming of the cutting disc or too much pressure. Do
not make excessively deep cuts. Overloading the cutting disc
increases its load and its tendency to jam or block and thus
the possibility of discarding or breaking.
• Avoid the area in front of and behind the rotating cutting disc.
Moving the cutting disc in the workpiece away from you may
cause the power tool to fly off with the rotating disc directly
towards you in the event of a kickback.
• In the event of a jammed cutting disc or a stoppage, switch
off the power tool and wait until the disc has come to a
complete stop. Never attempt to pull the still-moving disc
out of the cutting area, as this may cause . The cause of the
jam must be detected and removed.
• Do not restart the power tool while it is in the material. The
cutting wheel should reach its full speed before continuing
to cut. Otherwise, the grinding wheel may catch, jump off
the workpiece or cause recoil.
• Plates or large objects should be supported before machining
to reduce the risk of kickback caused by a jammed disc.
Large workpieces may bend under their own weight. The
workpiece should be supported on both sides, both near the
cutting line and at the edge.
• Take special care when cutting holes in walls or operating in
other invisible areas. The cutting disc plunging into the
material may cause the tool to recoil if it encounters gas
pipes, water pipes, electrical cables or other objects.
Special safety instructions for sanding with sandpaper
• Do not use oversized sheets of sandpaper. When choosing
the size of the sandpaper, follow the manufacturer's
recommendations. Sanding paper protruding beyond the
sanding plate can cause injury and can also lead to the paper
becoming blocked or torn, or to recoil.
Special safety instructions for polishing
• Do not allow the loose part of the polishing fur or its
fastening cords to rotate freely. Block or trim loose
attachment cords. Loose and rotating attachment cords
can entangle fingers or catch on the workpiece.
Special safety instructions for working with wire brushes
• It should be taken into account that even with normal use,
there is a loss of pieces of wire through the brush. Do not
overload the wires by applying too much pressure.
Airborne pieces of wire can easily pierce through thin
clothing and/or skin.
• If a guard is recommended, prevent the brush from coming
into contact with the guard. The diameter of plate and pot
brushes can increase through pressure and centrifugal
forces.
Additional safety instructions
• On tools designed to accommodate tapped grinding wheels,
check that the length of the grinding wheel thread is
appropriate to the length of the spindle thread.
• The workpiece must be secured. Clamping the workpiece in
a clamping device or vise is safer than holding it in your hand.
• Do not touch the cutting and grinding discs before they have
cooled down.
• When using a quick-action flange, ensure that the inner
flange fitted to the spindle is fitted with a rubber O-ring and
that this ring is not damaged. Also ensure that the surfaces
of the outer flange and inner flange are clean.
