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 accessories, or storing pow-
er tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
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 accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool's operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired 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 the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking 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)
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Safety instructions for all operations - Safety warn-
ings common for grinding, sanding, wire brushing,
polishing or abrasive cutting-off operations
a)
This power tool is intended to function as a
sander. Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with
this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious injury.
b)
Operations such as grinding, wire brushing,
polishing, hole-cutting or cutting-off are not
recommended to be performed with this pow-
er tool. Operations for which the power tool was
not designed may create a hazard and cause per-
sonal injury.
c)
Do not use the power tool for any function for
which it is not expressly designed and intend-
ed by its manufacturer. Such a modification may
result in loss of control and serious personal injury.
d)
Do not use a tool attachment that has not been
specifically envisaged and determined by the
manufacturer for this power tool. Just because
you can attach the accessories to your power tool
does not guarantee they are safe to use.
e)
The maximum speed of the tool attachment
used must be at least as high as the maximum
speed specified for the power tool. Accessories
which rotate faster than the maximum permissi-
ble rate can break and throw pieces into the air.
f)
The external diameter and thickness of the
tool attachment used must comply with the
dimensions of the power tool. Incorrectly di-
mensioned tool attachments cannot be sufficiently
shielded or controlled.
g)
The dimensions for fastening the tool at-
tachment must match the dimensions of the
fasteners of the power tool. Tool attachments
which are not precisely attached to the power tool
rotate unevenly, vibrate very strongly and can
cause a loss of control.
h)
Never use damaged tool attachments. Before
each use inspect the tool attachment such as
grinding discs for chips and cracks, grinding
wheel 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 undam-
aged accessory tool. When you have checked
and inserted the tool attachment, ensure that
you and any other people in the vicinity re-
main outside of the level of the rotating attach-
ment and allow the tool to rotate at maximum
speed for one minute. Damaged tool attach-
ments usually break during this test period.
i)
Wear personal protective equipment. De-
pending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. Where ap-
propriate, wear a dust mask, hearing pro-
tection, protective gloves or a special apron
that will keep small grinding and material
particles away from you. The eye protection
