4. SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General safety instructions for grinding:
Use
a) This power tool is designed for surface grinding. Refer
to all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to
follow all the instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
b)This power tool is not suitable for routing, polishing,
sanding, working with roughing discs, wire brushes,
parting grinder discs or flap discs. Using the power tool for
tasks for which it was not designed may create a hazard and
cause personal injury.
16
c) Do not use accessories that are not specifically
designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer.
Just because an accessory can be attached to your power
tool does not mean safe operation is guaranteed.
d) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least
equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool.
Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break
and fly apart.
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your acces-
sory must be within the capacity rating of your power
tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately
protected or controlled.
f) The arbour size of flanges, diamond cup wheels or any
other accessory must properly fit the spindle of the pow-
er tool. Accessories with arbour holes that do not match
the mounting hardware of the power tool will rotate un-
evenly, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before use, always
check accessories for splinters or cracks and check grind-
ing wheels for cracks or signs of severe wear and tear. If a
power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage
or install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and
installing an accessory, position yourself and bystand-
ers away from the plane of the rotating accessory and
run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one
minute. Damaged accessories will normally break apart
during this test time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending
on the application, use a face shield, safety goggles
or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear a 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 respira-
tor must be capable of filtering particles generated by your
operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may
cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from your work
area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal
protective equipment. Fragments of a workpiece or bro-
ken accessory may fly into the air and cause injury beyond
the immediate area of operation.
j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
when performing an operation where the cutting acces-
sory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. A cutting
accessory that comes in contact with a "live" wire may
render exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
give the operator an electric shock.
k) Houd het netsnoer uit de buurt van draaiend inzetger-
eedschap. Verliest u de controle over het apparaat, dan kan
het netsnoer doorgesneden of gegrepen worden en kan uw
hand of uw arm in het draaiende inzetgereedschap komen.
I) Never lay the power tool down until the accessory
has come to a complete stop. The spinning accessory
may catch the surface and pull the power tool out of your
control.
m) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your
side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could
snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
n) Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The motor's
fan draws dust into the housing.
o) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materi-
als. Sparks could ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electro-
cution or shock.
4.1 Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is the sudden response to an accessory pinching
or jamming while rotating. Pinching or jamming causes the
rotating accessory to stop abruptly, which in turn forces
the uncontrolled power tool in the direction against the
accessory's rotation at the point of jamming. Kickback is
the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions. It can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces.
Always use the auxiliary handle for maximum control
over kickback or torque reaction during start-up. The
operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if
proper precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. The
accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not allow your body to enter the area where the
power tool would move if kickback occurs. Kickback
will propel the power tool in the opposite direction of the
accessory's movement at the point of jamming.
d) Use special care when working around corners, sharp
edges etc. You must prevent accessories from bouncing
off the power tool and becoming jammed. A rotating
accessory tends to jam around corners and sharp edges
and also if bouncing occurs, thus causing loss of control or
kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or
toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback
and loss of control.
4.2 Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding with Diamond
Cup Wheels:
a) Use only wheel types that are recommended for
your power tool and the specific guard designed for the
selected wheel. Wheels for which the power tool was not
designed cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe.
b) The safety guard must be securely attached to the
power tool. Always direct the power tool so that the
wheel is not openly exposed to the operator. The guard
helps to protect the operator from broken fragments,
accidental contact with the wheel and sparks that could
ignite clothing.
c) Wheels must be used only for recommended applica-
tions.
d) Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are the
correct size and shape for your selected accessories. The
correct flanges support the accessories.
4.3 Additional Safety Instructions:
WARNING– Always wear protective goggles.
Wear a suitable dust protection mask.
WARNING – Always operate with two hands.
Observe the specifications of the accessory manufacturer!
Protect the accessories from grease and physical impact.
Accessories must be stored and handled with care in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's instructions. The workpiece
must be seated firmly and be secured against slipping,
e.g. using clamps. Large workpieces must be supported
adequately.
If accessories with threaded inserts are used, the end of the
spindle may not touch the base of the hole on the grinding
tool. Make sure that the thread in the accessory is long
enough to accommodate the full length of the spindle. The
thread in the accessory must match the thread on the spin-
dle. See page 3 and chapter 14. Technical Specifications for
more information on the spindle length and thread.
Impurities that manage to enter the machine
may block the switching mechanism. This is why, when the
machine is running, it is necessary to blow compressed air
through the rear ventilation slots of the machine regularly,
frequently and thoroughly. The machine must be held firm-
ly in this case.
Reduce dust exposure:
Some dust created by using this power tool may
contain chemicals known to cause cancer, allergic
reaction, respiratory disease, birth defects or other repro-
ductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: Lead
from leadbased paints, crystalline silica from bricks and
cement and other masonry products, arsenic and chromi-
um from chemically-treated lumber, hard wood like oak or
beech, metals, asbestos.
The risk from these exposures depends on how long you
or bystanders are being exposed. Do not let particles enter
