f) Grinding disks, flanges, grinding plates or
other accessory parts must exactly mate the
grinding spindle of your power tool. Insertion
tools which do not exactly mate the grinding spin-
dle of your powertool will perform irregular rota-
tions, cause high vibrations and thus the loss of
control.
g) Do not use damaged insertion tools. Prior to
each application, you must check insertion
tools such as grinding disks for chippings and
cracks, grinding plates for cracks, wear or ma-
jor abrasion, wire brushes for loose or broken
wires. lf the power tool or insertion tool falls
down, you must check it for damages, or use
an undamaged insertion tool. After you have
checked and inserted the insertion tool, both
you and persons in the vicinity must stay out
of the Ievel of the rotating insertion tool, and
the tool must be operated at maximum speed
for one minute. Most of the damaged insertion
tools will break within this test period.
h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on the application of the power tool, you
must wear a full face shield, eye protection or
goggles. lf appropriate, you must wear a dust
mask, hearing protection, protective gloves
or a special apron which protects you against
small grinding chips and material particles.
Protect your eyes against foreign objects which
fly off during different operations. The purpose
of dust masks and breathing equipment is to filter
the dust generated during the operation. Long-
term exposure to high noise pollution may cause
hearing loss.
i) Make sure that other persons stay a safe dis-
tance away from your working area. Persons
accessing your working area must wear person-
al protective equipment. Fragments of the work
piece or broken insertion tools may fly off and
cause injury even outside the direct working area.
j) Always hold the tool by its insulated handles
when the insertion tool may come into con-
tact with hidden power lines or with the power
cord of the power tool. Contact with live lines
may energise metaI tool parts and cause elec-
tric shock.
k) Keep the power cord away from rotating inser-
tion tools. lf you lose control of the power tool,
the power cord may be cut or trapped, and your
hand or arm may get into the path of the rotating
insertion tool.

l) Never put aside the power tool before the com-
plete halt of the insertion tool. Rotating inser-
tion tools may get in contact with the place of de-
posit thus causing the loss of control of the tool.
m) Switch of the power tool while you carry it
around. Your clothes may be trapped when unin-
tentionally getting in contact with the rotating in-
sertion tool and the insertion tool may penetrate
your body.
n) The ventilation slots of your power tool must
be cleaned on a regular basis. The motor fan
sucks in dust, and the accumulation of metaI dust
may cause electrical risks.
o) Do not use the power tool in the vicinity of in-
flammable materials. Sparks may ignite these
materials.
p) Do not use insertion tools which require liq-
uid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants
may cause electric shock.
Further safety notes for all applications - kickback
and corresponding safety notes
A kickback is the sudden reaction caused by rotating
insertion tools such as a grinding disk, grinding plate,
wire brush, etc. which has got caught or which blocks.
Getting caught or blocking results in the immediate
stop of the rotating insertion tool.
This accelerates the uncontrolled power tool against
the rotary direction of the insertion tool.
lf for example a grinding disk gets caught or blocks
in the work piece, the edge of the grinding disk which
penetrates the work piece may get caught, the grinding
disk will make a sudden movement or cause a kick-
back. As a result, the grinding disk moves towards the
operator or away from the operator, depending on the
rotary direction of the disk when it blocks. This may
also cause the fracture of grinding disks.
Kickbacks are the result of the improper or incorrect
use of power tools. Kickbacks can be avoided when
observing the following precautionary measures.
a) Hold the power tool firmly in your hands and
bring your body and arms in a position which
allows you to adequately react to kickback
forces. Always use the additional handle, if
available. This ensures you the utmost control of
kickback forces or reaction torques when starting
your power tool. When taking appropriate precau-
tions, the operator is in the position to control kick-
back and reaction forces.
