i) do not use damaged grinding discs. before
each use, inspect the grinding wheels for
any chipping or cracks. If the electric power
tool or the grinding disc is dropped, inspect
it for damage or replace it with an
undamaged grinding disc. when you have
inspected and installed the grinding disc,
make sure that you, and any other nearby
individuals, remain out of the plane of the
rotating grinding disc and then allow the
tool to rotate at its highest speed for one
minute. Damaged grinding discs usually break
during this test time.
j) wear protective clothing and equipment.
depending on the application, use either a
full face visor, protective goggles or safety
glasses. As far as appropriate, where a dust
mask, hearing protection, safety gloves or
special apron to protect yourself from
splinters and other particles of material.
The eyes must be protected against any flying
particles which may be generated during the
various applications. Dust masks or respirators
must filter out the dust generated by the
application. If you are exposed to loud noise
for a long time, you may suffer from hearing
loss.
k) make sure that other people remain at a
safe distance from your working area.
Anyone entering the work area must wear
personal safety clothing and equipment.
Fragments of the workpiece or of a broken tool
insert may fly off and cause injuries, even
outside the direct working area.
l) If you are carrying out work in situations
where the tool insert may make contact with
concealed power lines or its own power
cable, only hold the device by the insulated
hand grips. Contact with a live cable could
result in metal parts of the device also
becoming live and lead to an electric shock.
m) Keep the power cable and the rotating tool
insert far apart. If you lose control of the
device, the power cable may be severed or
caught and may draw your hand or arm into the
rotating tool insert.
n) never put down the electric power tool
before the tool insert has come to a complete
stop. The rotating tool insert may come into
contact with the supporting surface and cause
you to lose control of the electric power tool.

o) do not leave the electric power tool running
while you carry it around. Your clothes may
become caught through accidental contact with
the rotating tool insert and result in the tool
drilling into your body.
p) Clean the ventilation slits on your electric
power tool, regularly. The motor fan draws
dust into the housing and a large accumulation
of metallic dust can cause electrical hazards.
q) do not use the electric power tool in the
vicinity of flammable materials. Sparks can
ignite such materials.
r) do not use any tool inserts which require
liquid coolants. The use of water or other
liquid coolants could result in electrical shock.

Kickback and relevant safety instructions
Kickback is the sudden reaction following snagging
or jamming of a rotating grinding disc. Snagging or
jamming lead to an abrupt stop of the rotating tool
insert. This may then cause the uncontrolled electric
power tool to accelerate in the opposite direction to
the inserted tools direction of rotation at the point
were it jammed. If, for example, a grinding disc
snags or jams inside a workpiece, the edge of the
grinding disc which is inside the workpiece may
become caught and thus cause the grinding disc to
jump out or create a kickback. The grinding disc then
moves towards or away from the operator,
depending on the direction of rotation of the disc at
the jamming point. This can also cause a grinding
disc to break. A kickback is the result of improper or
incorrect use of the electric Power tool. It can be
avoided by taking suitable precautions, as described
below.
a) Hold the electric power tool firmly and
place your body and arms in such a
position that you can absorb the force of a
kickback. Always use the auxiliary grips,
when available, in order to have the
greatest possible control over kickback
forces or torque reactions at high speed.
By taking suitable precautionary measures, the
operator can control kickback and reaction forces.
b) never bring your hand into the vicinity of a
rotating tool insert. The inserted tool could
move over your hand if kickback occurs.
