speed of the power tool. Accessories run
faster than the specified rated speed can
break or shatter.
•
The outer diameter and thickness of the
accessory must be within the rated
capacity of the power tool. Accessories of
the wrong size cannot be properly
protected and controlled.
•
Threaded mounting of accessories must
match the spindle thread on the grinder.
For flange-fitted accessories, the spindle
hole must match the centring diameter of
the flange. Accessories that do not fit the
attachments on the tool will be
unbalanced, vibrate excessively and can
cause you to lose control of the tool.
•
Do not use damaged accessories. Before
using the tool always check the accessory
and make sure, for example, that grinding
discs are not chipped, that there are no
cracks or wear on the backing pad, and
that the steel brush does not have any
loose or damaged bristles. If you drop the
power tool or an accessory, check that it is
not damaged, or fit an undamaged
accessory. After checking and fitting an
accessory, position yourself and other
people in the vicinity away from the
direction of rotation of the accessory and
then run the tool at its maximum no-load
speed for one minute. Damaged
accessories will normally break during this
test period.
•
Wear safety equipment. Depending on
the application, you should wear a visor,
goggles or safety glasses. When necessary
you should wear a dust mask, ear
protection, gloves and an apron that can
stop shavings and fragments from the
workpiece. The eye protection must be
able to stop flying debris produced by
using the tool in different ways. The dust
or breathing mask must be able to filter
out the particles produced by the tool.
Prolonged exposure to intense noise can
impair hearing.
•
Keep onlookers at a safe distance from the
work area. Everyone coming into the work
area must wear personal safety
equipment. Fragments from the
workpiece, or from a defective accessory,
can fly out and cause personal injury
outside the actual work area.
•
Hold the tool with the insulated grips if
there is a risk of coming into contact with
hidden wiring or the power cord to the
tool. When cutting accessories come into
contact with a live wire, unprotected
metal parts on the tool can become live
and give the user an electric shock.
•
Position the power cord so that it cannot
come into contact with the rotating
accessory. If you lose control, the power
cord can be cut or get stuck, and your
hand or arm could be pulled into the
rotating accessory.
•
Never put down the power tool until the
accessory has completely stopped.
The rotating accessory can catch on the
surface and cause you to lose control of
the power tool.
•
Do not run the tool while carrying it next
to you. Unintentional contact with the
rotating accessory can cause it to catch in
your clothes and pull it towards your body.
•
Clean the ventilation grilles on the tool at
regular intervals. The motor fan sucks dust
into the tool casing and the accumulation
of metal powder can result in the risk of
electric shock.
•
Do not use the power tool near
flammable materials. Sparks can ignite
these materials.
•
Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. The use of water or other liquid
coolants can cause an electric shock.

Kickback and other warnings

happens the accessory is suddenly braked,
