DeWalt D28117 Originalanweisungen Seite 43

• Support panels or any oversized
workpiece to minimize the risk of
wheel pinching and kickback. Large
workpieces tend to sag under their
own weight. Supports must be
placed under the workpiece near the
line of cut and near the edge of the
workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
• The gear case becomes very hot
during use.
• Always wear regular working gloves
while operating this tool.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to the
tool. Do not exert side pressure on the
disc.
• Avoid overloading. Should the tool
become hot, let it run a few minutes
under no load condition to cool the
accessory. Do not touch accessories
before they have cooled. The discs
become very hot during use.
• Do not use separate reducing
bushings or adapters to adapt large
hole abrasive wheels.
• Never use the tool without the guard
in place.
• The tool is not designed to be used
with a grinding cup.
• Do not use the power tool with a cut-
off stand.
• Never use blotters together with
bonded abrasive products.
• Be aware, the wheel continues to
rotate after the tools is switched off.
Proper Hand Position (fi g. 1, 7)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, ALWAYS use
proper hand position as shown.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, ALWAYS hold
securely in anticipation of a sudden
reaction.
Proper hand position requires one hand on the side
handle (d), with the other hand on the body of the
tool, as shown in figure 7.
Switching On and Off (fi g. 1)
WARNING: Before using the tool,
check that the handle is tightened
securely.
To run the tool, press the on/off switch (a).
For continuous operation, press the switch
completely forward.
To stop the tool, release the switch. To stop the tool
in continuous operation, press on the back part of
the switch.
WARNING: Do not switch the tool on
or off when under load.
Spindle Lock (fi g. 1)
The spindle lock (b) is provided to prevent the
spindle from rotating when installing or removing
wheels. Operate the spindle lock only when the tool
is turned off, unplugged from the power supply, and
has come to a complete stop.
NOTICE: To reduce the risk of damage
to the tool, do not engage the spindle
lock while the tool is operating. Damage
to the tool will result and attached
accessory may spin off possibly
resulting in injury.
To engage the lock, depress the spindle lock button
and rotate the spindle until you are unable to rotate
the spindle further.
Metal Applications
When using the tool in metal applications, make
sure that a residual current device (RCD) has been
inserted to avoid residual risks caused by metal
swarf.
If the power supply is shut off by the RCD, take the
tool to authorised D WALT repair agent.
E
WARNING: In extreme working
conditions, conductive dust can
accumulate inside the machine housing
when working with metal. This can
result in the protective insulation in the
machine becoming degraded with a
potential risk of an electrical shock.
To avoid build-up of metal swarf inside the machine,
we recommend to clear the ventilation slots on a
daily basis. See Maintenance.
Using Flap Discs
WARNING: Metal dust build-up.
Extensive use of flap discs in metal
applications can result in the increased
potential for electric shock. To reduce
this risk, insert an RCD before use
and clean the ventilation slots daily by
blowing dry compressed air into the
ventilation slots inaccordance with the
below maintenance instructions.
