For your safety.
Do not use this machine before you have
thoroughly read and completely under-
stood these operating instructions, includ-
ing the figures, specifications, and safety regulations.
Please also observe the relevant national industrial safety
regulations (e. g. in Germany: BGV A2, BGR 500).
Non-observance of the safety instructions can lead to an
electric shock, fire and/or severe injuries.
These operating instructions should be kept for later use
and enclosed with the power tool, should it be passed on
or sold.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on
application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. 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 various operations. The
dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrat-
ing particles generated by your operation. Pro-
longed exposure to high intensity noise may cause
hearing loss.
While working, do not wear loose clothing, jewellery, open
or long hair. Loose objects can be caught in moving parts
despite protective devices, and lead to injuries.
Do not use worn, torn or heavily clogged grinding belts.
Handle grinding belts with care and store them in accord-
ance with the instructions of the manufacturer. Do not bend
or crease grinding belts! Damaged grinding belts can tear
apart and be thrown from the machine resulting in pos-
sible personal injury.
Do not use grinding belts or other accessories which are not
specifically designed and recommended by the power tool
manufacturer. Safe operation is not ensured merely
because a grinding belt or accessory fits your machine.
Always use the protective devices of the machine. The pro-
tective devices must be securely mounted to the machine
and positioned for maximum safety. The protective
devices help to protect the operator from flying grinding
particles and unintentional contact with the grinding belt.
Caution! Danger of fire and explosion! When grinding met-
als (e. g. aluminium or magnesium), dust develops that can
be combustible or explosive. Do not operate the machine in
the vicinity of combustible materials. Sparks can ignite
such materials.
Pay attention that persons are not harmed by sparking.
Remove combustible materials in the direct area. Sparks
develop when grinding metals.
The workpiece must always lie securely on the grinding rest
and the stop. Workpieces that are too small or too thin may
not be worked. Danger of injury from workpieces being
thrown from the machine.
Never touch the running grinding belt. Danger of
injury.
Press the safety switch immediately in danger situations.
The machine runs on for up to 50 seconds.
Clean the ventilation slots of the machine regularly. The
motor fan draws dust into the housing. Excessive accumu-
lation of metal dust can cause electrical dangers.
Ensure that the machine is positioned securely and horizon-
tal. Serious injuries can be caused if the machine tips over
during operation.
The mains plug of the machine may be mounted only by a
qualified electrician. The protective conductor in the
mains socket outlet must be connected with the protec-
tive earthing of the mains supply.
Pull out the mains plug for maintenance and repair! Switch-
ing the machine on unintentionally can lead to serious
injuries.
Have the electrical safety of the machine checked regularly
in accordance with statutory regulations. For machines
that have not been checked, there may be danger of elec-
trical shock!
Check the rotation direction of the motor before starting the
operation of the machine for the first time. If the rotation
direction of the motor is incorrect, the workpiece can be
thrown from the machine and cause an accident. The
rotation direction may be changed only by a qualified
electrician.
Make sure that you or other persons are not standing
directly next to the grinding belt when switching the
machine on. The grinding belt can tear apart and cause
serious injuries.
