If the electric power tool or the insertion
tool is dropped, check for damage or use
an undamaged insertion tool. When you
have checked and inserted the tool,
ensure that you and anybody in the vicinity
remain outside the plane of the rotating
insertion tool and leave the power tool
running for one minute at maximum
speed. Damaged insertion tools usually
break during this test time.
 Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on the application, wear full
face protection, eye protection or goggles.
If appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing
protection, protective gloves and/or
a special apron which protect you from
small sanding and material particles.
You should protect your eyes from foreign
objects which are ejected for different
applications. Dust and respirator masks
must filter the dust which is generated
by the power tool for the particular
application. If you are exposed to loud
noise for a prolonged period, you may
suffer hearing loss.
 Ensure that other persons are situated at a
safe distance from the work area. Anyone
who enters the work area must wear
personal protective equipment.
Fragments of the workpiece or broken
insertion tools may fly off and cause
injuries even outside the direct working
area.
 If the insertion tool is at risk of coming into
contact with concealed power cables or
the power cord itself, hold the power tool
by the insulated grip surfaces only.
Contact with a live cable may also cause
metal parts of the appliance to become
live and result in an electric shock.
 Keep the power cord away from rotating
insertion tools. If you lose control of the
appliance, the power cord could be
severed or become caught and your hand
or arm may strike the rotating insertion
tool.
 Never put down the electric power tool
until the insertion tool has come to
a standstill. The rotating insertion tool
may come into contact with the support
surface, possibly resulting in you losing
control of the electric power tool.

 Never leave the electric power tool running
while you are carrying it. Your clothing
may become caught by accidental
contact with the rotating insertion tool
which may then drill into your body.
 Regularly clean the ventilation slots on
your electric power tool. The motor fan
draws dust into the housing; a large build-
up of metal dust may cause electrical
hazards.
 Never use the electric power tool near
combustible materials. Sparks may ignite
these materials.
 Never use insertion tools which require
liquid coolants. The use of water or other
liquid coolants may result in electric shock.
Recoil and appropriate safety
instructions
Kickback is the sudden reaction to a pinched
or snagged rotating insertion tool, such as
a sanding disc, sanding pad, etc. Pinching or
snagging may cause a rotating insertion tool
to stop abruptly. As a result, an uncontrolled
electric power tool is accelerated against the
direction of rotation of the insertion tool at the
blocking point. For example, if a sanding disc is
snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the edge
of the sanding disc which is entering the
workpiece may become caught and cause
the sanding disc to break off or kick back.
The sanding disc then moves towards or away
from the operator, depending on the direction in
which the disc is rotating at the point of pinching.
Sanding discs may also break under these
conditions.
A recoil occurs if the electric power tool is used
incorrectly or improperly. A recoil can be
prevented by appropriate precautions as
described below.
 Hold the electric power tool firmly and
position your body and arms to allow you
to absorb kickback forces. If fitted, always
use the auxiliary handle to ensure the best
possible control over the recoil forces or
reaction torques when acceleration
occurs. The operator can control kickback
and reaction forces by taking appropriate
precautions.
 Keep your hands away from the rotating
insertion tool. The insertion tool may
kickback over your hand.
