NOTE
► The vibration emission value specified in these
instructions has been measured in accordance
with a standardised measuring procedure and
can be used to make equipment comparisons.
The specified vibration emission value can also
be used to make an initial exposure estimate.
WARNING!
► The vibration emission value varies in accord-
ance with the use of the power tool and may
be higher than the value specified in these
instructions in some cases. Regular use of the
power tool in such a way may cause the user
to underestimate the vibration. Try to keep the
vibration loads as low as possible. Examples
of measures for reducing the vibration load
are wearing gloves when using the tool and
limiting the working time. Wherein all states
of operation must be included (e.g. times
when the power tool is switched off and times
when the power tool is switched on but running
without load).
Always wear safety goggles.
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 batteryoperated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmos-
pheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a) 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.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) 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.

e) 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.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD re-
duces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a) 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.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to the power source and/or battery pack,
picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying
power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool
may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-
lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) 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.
4. Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
c) 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. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children, 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 acci-
dents 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.

5. Use and handling of the cordless
electrical power tool
a) Charge a rechargeable battery unit using
only the charger recommended by the
manufacturer. Chargers are often designed
for a particular type of rechargeable battery
unit. There is the danger of fire if other types of
rechargeable battery units are used.
b) Only the rechargeable battery units supplied
are to be used with an electrical power tool.
The use of other rechargeable battery units may
lead to the danger of injury or fire.
c) When they are not being used, store recharge-
able battery units away from paperclips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects
that could cause the contacts to be bridged.
Short-circuiting the contacts of a rechargeable
battery unit may result in heat damage or fire.
d) Fluids may leak out of rechargeable battery
units if they are misused. If this happens, avoid
contact with the fluid. If contact occurs, flush
the affected area with water. Seek additional
medical help if any of the fluid gets into your
eyes. Escaping battery fluid may cause skin
irritation or burns.
CAUTION! RISK OF EXPLOSION!
Never charge non-rechargeable
batteries.
Protect the rechargeable battery
from heat; for example, from
continuous exposure to sunlight,
fire, water and moisture.
There is a risk of explosion.
6. 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 power tool is maintained.
Appliance-specific safety instructions
for hand grinders/polishers
General safety instructions for polishing and
sandpaper sanding
(a) This power tool is to be used as a polisher and
sandpaper sander. Please follow all safety
instructions, instructions, diagrams and data
that you receive with the power tool. Failure
to follow the instructions below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
b) This power tool is not suitable for cutting,
roughing and wire brushing. Using the power
tool for applications for which it is not designed
can lead to hazards and injuries.
c) Do not use any accessories that have not
been specifically provided or recommended
for this power tool by the manufacturer. Just
because you can attach the accessories to your
power tool, does not ensure they are safe to
use.
d) The maximum speed of the accessory tool
used must be at least as high as the maximum
speed specified for the power tool.
Accessories that rotate faster than the maximum
permissible rate can break and throw pieces
into the air.

e) The external diameter and thickness of the
accessory tool used must comply with the
dimensions of the power tool. Incorrectly dimen-
sioned accessory tools cannot be sufficiently
shielded or controlled.
f) The thread of the accessories must match the
thread of the grinding spindle. For accessories
mounted by means of a flange, the bore of
the accessory must match the diameter of
the flange. Accessories that do not fit on the
appliance will run unevenly, vibrate too much
and this may result in loss of control of the unit.
g) Never use damaged accessory tools. Check
accessory tools such as grinding discs before
each use for chips or cracks, grinding plates
for cracks, wearing or excessive wear and
tear and wire brushes for loose or broken
wires. If the power tool or the accessory
tool in use is dropped, check to see if it is
damaged or use an undamaged accessory
tool. Once you have checked and inserted
the accessory tool, ensure that you and any
other people in the vicinity remain outside of
the level of the rotating accessory tool and
allow the power tool to rotate at maximum
speed for one minute. Damaged accessory
tools usually break during this test period.
h) Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on the application, ensure that
you use full face protection, eye protection
or goggles. If required, use a dust mask, ear
protectors, protective gloves or a special
apron to protect you from grindings and material particles. Eyes should be protected from
flying debris that may be caused during certain
applications. A dust or respiratory mask must
filter the dust generated during use. If you are
exposed to loud noise for any length of time,
you can suffer a hearing loss.
i) Ensure that other people remain at a safe
distance from your workspace. Anyone who
enters the workspace must wear personal
protective equipment. Fragments of the work-
piece or broken accessory tools can fly off
and cause injury – even outside the immediate
working area.
j) Never remove the power tool before the
accessory tool has come to a complete stop.
The rotating accessory tool could come into
contact with the surface and cause you to lose
control of the power tool.
k) Do not leave the power tool running whilst
carrying it. Accidental contact between your
clothing and the rotating accessory tool could
cause your clothing to get caught and the
accessory tool to penetrate a part of your body.
l) Clean the ventilation slits in your power
tool regularly. The motor fan draws dust into
the housing and the accumulation of a large
amount of metal dust can cause electrical
hazards.
m) Do not use the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks can ignite such materials.
n) Do not use accessory tools that require liquid
coolant. The use of water or other liquid coolants
may lead to an electric shock.

Kickback and corresponding safety
instructions
Kickback is a sudden reaction caused when a
rotating accessory tool, e.g. grinding disc, grinding
plate, wire brush, etc., catches or blocks. Catching
or blocking leads to an abrupt stop of the rotating
accessory tool. If this happens, an uncontrolled
power tool turns rapidly against the direction of rotation of the accessory tool caught in the blockage.
If, for example, a grinding disc catches or jams,
the edge of the grinding disc that is projecting into
the workpiece can get caught and break off the
grinding disc or cause a kickback. The grinding
disc can then fly in the direction of the operator
or away from them, depending on the direction of
rotation of the disc at the blockage. This can also
break grinding discs.
A kickback is caused by improper or incorrect use
of the power tool. This can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as described below.
a) Hold the power tool firmly in both hands and
position your body and arms so they can
absorb the force of a kickback. Always use
the additional handle, if available, so that
you have the maximum possible control over
the kickback force or reaction forces at full
speed. By taking adequate precautions, the
operator can stay in control of the kickback
and reaction forces.
b) Never hold your hand close to a rotating
accessory tool. The accessory tool could
jump out of your hand if there is a kickback.
c) Avoid having any part of your body in the
region in which the power tool is likely to
move in event of a kickback. The kickback will
force the power tool in the opposite direction to
the direction of rotation of the grinding disc at
the blockage.
d) Take special care when working near corners,
sharp edges, etc. Do not allow the accessory
tool to bounce back from the workpiece or
jam. The rotating accessory tool is more likely to
jam in corners or sharp edges or if it bounces.
This can cause a loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not use chains or toothed saw blades.
Such accessories often cause a kickback or
loss of control over the power tool.
Special safety instructions for polishing
a) Do not leave any loose parts hanging from
the polishing hood, especially the fastening
cords. Tuck away or shorten the fastening
cords. Loose, spinning fastening cords can hit
your fingers or get caught in the workpiece.
Special safety instructions for sanding with
sandpaper
a) Do not use oversized sanding sheets: follow
the manufacturer's instructions regarding
sanding sheet size. Larger sanding sheets that
extend beyond the grinding disc cause personal
injury and may cause snagging or tearing of
the disc, or kickback.
Further safety instructions
■ Secure the workpiece. A workpiece securely
held by a clamping device or vice is much safer
than one held in your hand.
■ Do not rest your hands next to or in front of the
appliance and the area being worked as there
is a risk of injury if you slip.
■ RISK OF FIRE DUE TO FLYING SPARKS!
Sanding metal generates sparks. Ensure that nobody can be put at risk and that no combustible
materials are located in the immediate vicinity
of where you are working.
