Safety
J
If you use the device outdoors, always connect
it through a residual current device (RCD) with
a maximum trip current of 30 mA. If using an
extension lead, always use one that is approved
for outdoor use.
J
Do not suspend or carry the device by the
mains lead. Always work with the mains lead
leading away from the rear of the device.
J
Grinding discs must be carefully kept and han-
dled in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
J
Make sure that abrasive consumables and tools
are attached in accordance with the manufac-
turer's instructions and advice.
J
Ensure that any spacers supplied or required
for the use of certain abrasive consumables
and tools are properly installed.
J
Before you use the device make sure that the
abrasive consumable or tool is correctly attached
and firmly fastened in place. Allow the tool to
run under no-load conditions for 30 seconds in
a safe position. Stop the device immediately if
a significant amount of vibration occurs or if
any defects are found. In this event check over
the machine to find the cause of the problem.
J
Never use the electrical power tool without its
disc guard cover, if it was supplied with one.
J
When using abrasive consumables and tools
with a threaded insert make sure that the threaded
hole is long enough for the spindle length.
J
Do not work in areas where there may be con-
cealed electricity cables or gas or water pipes.
Use a suitable detector or ask your local utility
service providers. Contact with electricity cables
can lead to fire or electric shock.
Damaging a gas pipe can lead to an explosion.
Penetration of a water pipe can lead to property
damage or to electric shock.
Danger of fire from flying sparks!
Cutting or grinding metal creates flying sparks.
For this reason, always make sure that nobody
is placed in any danger and that there are no
inflammable materials near the working area.
m Warning! Noxious fumes! Working with
harmful / noxious dusts represents a risk to the
health of the person operating the device and
to anyone near the working area.

J
Wear hearing protection, protective
glasses, a dust protection mask and
protective gloves.
J
For longer periods of cutting or grinding wood,
metal or stone materials that give rise to dusts
that are hazardous to health, connect the device
to a suitable external vacuum dust extraction
device.
J
Connect a suitable vacuum dust extraction de-
vice when you are working on stone or masonry.
The vacuum dust extraction device must be one
approved for use with stone dusts.
m Warning! Danger of electric shock
from metal dust! Machining metal can result
in electrically conductive dust being deposited
inside the device. In these circumstances the
inside of the motor compartment must be blown
out at frequent intervals with compressed air,
vacuum dust extraction used and the device
operated through a residual current device
(RCD) with a maximum trip current of 30 mA.
J
Ensure that there is adequate ventilation when
machining surfaces containing plastic or cov-
ered with paint, varnish etc.
J
Do not soak the materials or the surface you
are about to work on with liquids containing
solvents. The heat generated during abrasion
can give rise to poisonous vapours or gases
that are hazardous to health.
J
Wear close-fitting clothing and keep long hair
inside a hairnet or suitable headwear.
J
For safety reasons this tool must always be
used with the auxiliary handle in place.
J
The adjustable disc guard cover must always
be in place when working with roughing /
grinding or cutting discs.
J
Use the vacuum dust extraction facility if your
work generates large amounts of dust. Use
vacuum dust extraction devices particularly ap-
proved for the purpose.
J
Use permitted consumables and tools only.
Check that the speed given on the discs is
greater than or equal to the rated no-load
speed of the device.
J
Ensure that the dimensions of the abrasive con-
sumable or tool matches the grinder.
J
Take note of the direction of rotation and always
