 Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
 Store idle power tools out of the reach of children 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.
 Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-
cordance 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 in-
tended could result in a hazardous situation.
Battery tool use and care
 Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-
facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery
pack may create a risk of fire when used with another bat-
tery pack.
 Use power tools only with specifically designated bat-
tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk
of injury and fire.
 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other
metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects, that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.
 Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-
curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additional-
ly seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.
Service
 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-
son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-
sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety Warnings for Sander
Safety Warnings common for Grinding and Abrasive Cut-

 This power tool is intended to function as a grinder and
cutting-off machine. Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, 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.
 Operations such as sanding, wire brushing or polishing
are not recommended to be performed with this power

tool. Operations for which the power tool was not designed
may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
 Do not use accessories which are not specifically de-
signed and recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just
because the accessory can be attached to your power tool,
it does not assure safe operation.
 The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal
to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Acces-
sories running faster than their rated speed can break and
fly apart.
 The outside diameter and the thickness of your accesso-
ry must be within the capacity rating of your power tool.
Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately guarded
or controlled.
 Threaded mounting of accessories must match the
grinder spindle thread. For accessories mounted by
flanges, the arbour hole of the accessory must fit the lo-
cating diameter of the flange. Accessories that do not
match the mounting hardware of the power tool will run out
of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of con-
trol.
 Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use in-
spect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips
and cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear or excess wear,
wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If power tool or ac-
cessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an un-
damaged accessory. After inspecting and installing an
accessory, position yourself and bystanders away from
the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power
tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute. Damaged
accessories will normally break apart during this test time.
 Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on ap-
plication, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glass-
es. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors,
gloves and workshop apron capable of stopping small
abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye protection
must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by var-
ious operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capa-
ble of filtrating particles generated by your operation. Pro-
longed exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing
loss.
 Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area.
Anyone entering the work area must wear personal pro-
tective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a broken
accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate
area of operation.
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
when performing an operation where the cutting acces-
sory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory con-
tacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and shock the operator.
 Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has
come to a complete stop. The spinning wheel may grab the
surface and pull the power tool out of your control.
 Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side.
Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could snag
your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
