making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the power tool‘s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions taking into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
h.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease.
Slippery handles do not allow for safe
handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
5 SERVICE
a.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the pow-
er tool is maintained.

. Accessories that rotate faster
than the permissible level can rupture and the
shattered pieces may fly around.
e.
The outside diameter and the thickness of the
accessory must be within the specified size
range of the machine.
Accessories with incorrect
dimensions cannot be sufficiently protected or
controlled.
The bore diameter of discs, flanges, backing
f.
pads and all other accessories must fit the spindle of the power tool exactly.
Accessories with
an unsuitable bore diameter do not run smoothly,
vibrate excessively and lead to loss of control.
g.
Do not use damaged accessories. Before use,
always check accessories such as polishing
pads for nicks or cracks and check backing pads
for cracks and excessive wear. Every time the
machine is dropped, check both the machine
and accessories for damage, or install undamaged accessories. Following the check and assembly of accessories, ensure that all persons
are beyond the rotating range of the tool and
run the machine for one minute at maximum
speed.
Damaged accessories usually break com-
pletely during this test time.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
h.
ing on the application, use a shield, full-face
mask or protective goggles. If practical, wear a
dust mask, ear protection, safety gloves and a
work apron suitable to protect against impact or
small sanding or workpiece parts.
The eyes
should be protected against foreign objects flying
around, which are generated during various applications. The dust or respiratory mask must be
suitable to filter dust arising from the application. If you are exposed to prolonged periods of
loud noise, you may suffer a loss of hearing.
i.
Ensure that persons standing near the machine
maintain a safe distance to the work area. Everyone who enters the work area must wear
personal protective equipment.
Parts of the
workpiece or tool can fly off and cause injury outside the immediate work area.
j.
Keep the power cable away from rotating
parts.
If you lose control, the power cable could
be cut or become stuck and your hand or arm
could be drawn into the rotating parts.
k.
Never set the power tool down until the tool has
stopped completely.
Rotating tools may come
into contact with the storage area, whereby you
may lose control of the power tool.
Do not allow the power tool to continue running

cause electrical hazards.
n.
Never operate the machine near combustible
materials.
o.
Never use tools that have to be liquid-cooled.
Water and other liquid coolants can cause potentially fatal electric shocks.
Kickbacks and corresponding safety instructions:
A kickback is a sudden reaction as a result of a
jammed or blocked rotating tool, sanding disc,
sanding pad, wire brush, etc. Jamming or blocking
leads to an abrupt stop of the rotating tool. An uncontrolled power tool is thus accelerated against
the direction of rotation of the tool at the blocking
point.
If, for example, a sanding disc is jammed or blocked
in the workpiece, the edge of the sanding disc,
which is immersed in the workpiece, can get caught
and the sanding disc may crack or cause a kickback. The sanding disc then moves away from or towards the operator, depending on the direction of
rotation of the disc at the blocking point. This can
also cause sanding discs to break.
A kickback is the consequence of incorrect use or
misuse of the power tool and can be prevented by
taking appropriate precautionary measures, as described below.
Hold the power tool firmly in your hands and
