a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even during ordinary operation. Do not
overstress the wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles can easily penetrate light
clothing and/or skin.
b) If the use of a guard is recommended for wire brushing, do not allow any interference of the wire
wheel or brush with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter due to work load and centrifugal
forces.
3.8 Additional Safety Instructions: WARNING
– Always wear protective goggles.
from grease or impacts!
Grinding discs must be stored and handled with care in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Never use cutting discs for roughing work! Do not apply pressure to the side of the cutting discs.
The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against slipping, e.g. using clamps. Large workpieces must be
sufficiently supported.
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 spindle.
Use of a fixed extractor system is recommended. Always install an RCD with a max. trip current of 30 mA
upstream. If the angle grinder is shut down via the RCD, it must be checked and cleaned.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be used.
Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electrical cables and load-bearing walls (static).
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any adjustments, converting or servicing the machine.
When the safety clutch responds, switch off the machine immediately!
A damaged or cracked side handle must be replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective side handle.
A damaged or cracked safety guard must be replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective safety guard.
Secure small workpieces. For example, clamp in a vice.
Reduce dust exposure:
Particles generated when working with this machine may contain substances that can cause cancer, allergic
reactions, respiratory diseases, birth defects or other propagation defects. Some of these substances include:
Lead (in paint containing lead), mineral dust (from bricks, concrete etc.), additives used for wood treatment
(chromate, wood preservatives), some wood types (such as oak or beech dust), metals, asbestos. The risk
depends on for how long the user or nearby persons are exposed to the substance.
This dust must not be allowed to enter your body. Do the following to reduce exposure to these substances:
Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and wear appropriate protective equipment, such as respirators able
to filter microscopically small particles. Observe the relevant guidelines for your material, staff, application and
place of application (e.g. occupational health and safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid deposits in the surrounding area. Use suitable accessories
for special work (see chapter 10.), thus less particles enter the environment in an uncontrolled manner. Use
a suitable extraction unit. Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- Do not direct the escaping particles and the exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons or on dust
deposits.
- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep clean using a vacuum cleaner Sweeping or blowing stirs
up dust
- Vacuum or wash the protective clothing Do not blow, beat or brush
