Always firmly clamp the workpiece. Do not
cut workpieces that are too small to clamp.
Otherwise, the clearance of your hand to the
rotating cutting disc is too small.
If the cutting disc becomes jammed, switch
the machine off and wait until the cutting
disc comes to a complete stop. Never at-
tempt to remove a still running cutting disc
from the cut, otherwise there is danger of
kickback. Determine and correct the cause
for the jamming.
After switching off, do not stop the cutting
disc by applying lateral pressure to it. The
cutting disc can become damaged, break or
lead to kickback.
Do not force the cutting disc into the work-
piece and do not apply too much pressure
when using the power tool. Particularly
avoid jamming or wedging the cutting disc
when working corners or sharp edges.
When the cutting disc is damaged due to
abuse, cracks can form that can lead to
breakage without prior warning.
Wear a work apron. Pay attention that other
persons are not put at risk from sparking.
Remove flammable materials in close vicin-
ity. Sparking occurs when cutting metal.
Use the cut off grinder only for cutting ma-
terials mentioned under "Intended Use".
Otherwise, the cut off grinder can be subject
to overload.
Do not use damaged, out-of-centre or vi-
brating cutting discs. Damaged cutting discs
cause increased friction, binding of the cut-
ting disc and kickback.
Always use cutting discs with correct size
and shape (diamond versus round) of arbor
holes. Cutting discs that do not match the
mounting hardware of the cut off grinder will
run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving
blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss of control
over the power tool.
Bosch Power Tools
Observe the operating instructions of the
cut-off wheel manufacturer for assembly
and use of the cut-off wheel. Cut-off wheels
that do not fit can lead to injury as well as to
jamming, breaking or kickback.
Do not use accessories which are not spe-
cifically designed and recommended by the
tool manufacturer. Just because the acces-
sory can be attached to your power tool, it
does not assure safe operation.
Do not touch the cutting disc after working
before it has cooled. The cutting disc be-
comes very hot while working.
Check the cable regularly and have a dam-
aged cable repaired only through an author-
ised customer service agent for Bosch pow-
er tools. Replace damaged extension
cables. This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
Store the machine in a safe manner when
not being used. The storage location must
be dry and lockable. This prevents the ma-
chine from storage damage, and from being
operated by untrained persons.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held
more secure than by hand.
Never leave the machine before it has come
to a complete stop. Cutting tools that are
still running can cause injuries.
Never use the machine with a damaged ca-
ble. Do not touch the damaged cable and
pull the mains plug when the cable is dam-
aged while working. Damaged cables in-
crease the risk of an electric shock.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted
with an BS 1363/A approved electric plug with
internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets,
it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fit-
ted in its place by an authorised customer serv-
ice agent. The replacement plug should have the
same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a
possible shock hazard and should never be in-
serted into a mains socket elsewhere.
