with this power tool can not be su昀케ciently
shielded and are unsafe.
► The protec琀椀ve and extrac琀椀on hood must be
mounted on the power tool securely. The pro-
tec琀椀ve and extrac琀椀on hood is designed to pro-
tect the machine operator from 昀氀ying debris
and accidental contact with the grinding disk.
► Diamond cup disks must only be used for
their recommended applica琀椀ons. For exam-
ple: Never grind edges with a diamond cup
disk. Diamond cup disks are designed to grind
o昀昀 material with the underside of the diamond
segments. Lateral stresses on these grinding
disks may cause them to break.
► Only use undamaged clamping 昀氀anges in the
correct size and shape for the diamond cup
disk of your choice. Appropriate 昀氀anges will
support the diamond cup disk and will there-
fore lower the risk of breaking.
► Never use worn diamond cup disks of larger
power tools. Diamond cup disks for larger
power tools are not designed for the higher ro-
ta琀椀onal speeds of smaller power tools and can
break.
Recoil and associated safety notes
► Recoil is the sudden reac琀椀on of a hooked
or blocked rota琀椀ng tool insert, e.g. grinding
disk, cup wheel, wire brush, etc. A hooking
or blocking of the insert will cause a sudden
stop of the rota琀椀ng tool insert. As a result,
the power tool will be accelerated uncontrol-
lably in the opposite direc琀椀on of the rotat-
ing tool insert at the loca琀椀on of the blockage.
If e.g. a grinding disk is hooked or blocked inside
the workpiece, the edge of the grinding disk
submerged in the workpiece may get caught
and thus break the grinding disk or cause a re-
coil. The grinding disk will then move towards
the operator or away, depending on the rota-
琀椀onal direc琀椀on of the disk at the blockage loca-
琀椀on. This may cause the grinding disk to break.
A recoil is the result of incorrect or erroneous
handling of the power tool. Appropriate pre-
ven琀椀ve measures - as described below - will
help prevent a recoil.
► Hold the power tool 昀椀rmly and posi琀椀on your
body and arms in such a way as to be able to
compensate any recoil. Always use the second
handle (where available) to ensure a 昀椀rm grip
on the tool and greatest possible control in
the event of a recoil, and best possible reac-
琀椀on during the run-up of the tool. The operator
will be able to compensate for the recoil force
provided appropriate preven琀椀ve measures are
taken.
► Never posi琀椀on your hand in close proximity of
rota琀椀ng tool inserts. A recoil could cause the
tool insert to move across your hand.
► Posi琀椀on your body away from the area into
which the power tool would move in case of
a recoil. A recoil will drive the power tool in
the opposite direc琀椀on of the movement of the
grinding disk at the blockage loca琀椀on.
► Work with par琀椀cular cau琀椀on in the area of cor-
ners, sharp edges, etc. Prevent the tool inserts
bouncing o昀昀 the workpiece or ge琀�ng stuck.
The rota琀椀ng tool insert is prone to ge琀�ng stuck
at corners, sharp edges, or when it bounces o昀昀
a surface. This could cause a loss of control or
a recoil.
► Do not use chain disks or toothed disks. These
tool inserts o昀琀en create a recoil ac琀椀on or loss of
control over the power tool.
