Symbols
The following show the symbols used for the equipment.
Be sure that you understand their meaning before use.
・ Read instruction manual.
・ DOUBLE INSULATION
・ Wear safety glasses.
・ Only for EU countries
Do not dispose of electric equipment
together with household waste material!
In observance of European Directive
2002/96/EC on waste electric and
electronic equipment and its
implementation in accordance with
national law, electric equipment that
have reached the end of their life must
be collected separately and returned to
an environmentally compatible recycling
facility.
Intended use
The tool is intended for grinding, sanding and cutting of
metal and stone materials without the use of water.
Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are
double-insulated and can, therefore, also be used from
sockets without earth wire.

is used for other applications, the vibration emission
value may be different.
WARNING:
• The vibration emission during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared emission
value depending on the ways in which the tool is
used.
• Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the
operator that are based on an estimation of
exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking
account of all parts of the operating cycle such as
the times when the tool is switched off and when it
is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

General Power Tool Safety
Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and
instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
Electrical safety
4. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
8. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
9. If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
10. Use of power supply via a RCD with a rated
residual current of 30mA or less is always
recommended.
Personal safety
11. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
12.
Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection.
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
13.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool.
with your finger on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
14.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on.

result in personal injury.
15.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
16.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts.
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
17.
If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used.
Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
18.
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application.

rate for which it was designed.
19.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off.
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
20.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
21.
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.
