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
atmospheres, 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) The mains plug of the power tool must fit
into the socket. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Un-
modified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or ground-
ed surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electric 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 loca-
tion is unavoidable, use a residual current
device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an
RCD reduces 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 inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as 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 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 be-
fore 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 cloth-
ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery 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 cor-
rect 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 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 misalign-
ment 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. Prop-
erly 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. 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.
WARNING!
Always wear safety googles
Wear a dust mask.
Safety instructions for all
applications
General safety instructions for grinding,
working with wire brushes, polishing and
milling:
a) This power tool is intended for use as a
grinder, sandpaper sander, wire brush, polisher, milling machine and abrasive cutting
appliance. Please follow all safety instructions,
instructions, diagrams and data that you receive with the appliance. If you do not observe
the following instructions, this can lead to an
electrical shock, fire and/or serious injuries.
b) This power tool is not suitable for sandpaper
sanding or abrasive cutting. Using the power
tool for applications for which it is not designed is hazardous and may cause injuries.
c) Do not use any accessories that have not
been provided or recommended for this
power tool by the manufacturer. Just because
you can attach the accessories to your power
tool, does not guarantee safe use.
d) The permissible speed of the attachment part
must be at least as high as the maximum
speed specified for the power tool. Acces-
sories that rotate faster than the permissible rate
can break and throw pieces into the air.
e) The external diameter and thickness of the
attachment part used must comply with the
dimensions of the power tool. Incorrectly
dimensioned attachment parts cannot be sufficiently shielded or controlled.
f) Grinding discs, sanding drums or other ac-
cessories must match exactly the grinding
spindle or collet chuck of your power tool. At-
tachment parts that do not fit precisely into the
take-up of the power tool will rotate unevenly, vibrate severely and can lead to a loss of control.
g) Discs, grinding cylinders, cutting tools or
other accessories mounted on a mandrel must
be inserted completely in the collet or chuck.
Any "protrusion" or exposed parts of the
mandrel between the grinding tool and the
collet or chuck must be kept to a minimum. If
the mandrel is not sufficiently tightened or the
grinding tool protrudes too far, the attachment
part can come loose and be ejected at high
speed.
h) Never use damaged attachment parts. Before
each use, check attachment parts such as
grinding discs for chips or cracks, sanding
drums for cracks, deterioration or excessive
wear and tear, and wire brushes for loose
or broken wires. If the power tool or the attachment part is dropped, check to see if it is
damaged or use an undamaged attachment
part. When you have checked and inserted the
attachment part, ensure that you and any other
people nearby remain outside of the range of
the rotating attachment part and allow the tool
to rotate at maximum speed for one minute.
Damaged attachment parts usually break during
this test period.
i) Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on the application, ensure that you use
full face protection, eye protection or safety
goggles. If appropriate, use a dust mask, ear
protectors, protective gloves or special apron
to protect you from grindings and material
particles. The eyes should be protected from
flying debris that may be caused during certain
applications. Dust or filter masks must be used to
filter any dust created by the application. If you
are exposed to loud noise for a longer period,
you may suffer hearing loss.

j) Ensure that other people remain at a safe dis-
tance to your workspace. Anyone who enters
the workspace must wear personal protective
equipment. Fragments of the workpiece or
broken attachment parts can become airborne
and cause injury – even outside the immediate
working area.
k) Hold the power tool only by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing work
during which the attachment part can contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a
live cable may also energise metal parts of the
appliance and result in an electric shock.
l) Always hold the power tool firmly. When
running up to full speed, the torque of the motor
can cause the power tool to twist.
m) If possible, use clamps to hold the workpiece in
position. Never hold a small workpiece in one
hand and the power tool in the other while
you are using it. By clamping small workpieces,
you keep both hands free for better control of the
power tool. When cutting round workpieces such
as dowels, rods or pipes, be aware that these
can roll away, which can cause that the tool jams
and is thrown towards you.
n) Hold the power cord away from any rotating
accessories. If you lose control of the appliance,
the cord may get cut or caught and your hand
or arm could get caught in the rotating attachment part.
o) Never put the power tool down until the at-
tachment part has come to a complete standstill. The rotating attachment part could come
into contact with the surface and cause you to
lose control of the power tool.
p) When changing attachment parts or the set-
tings on the appliance, tighten the collet nut,
the chuck or other fixing elements tightly.
Loose fastening elements can shift unexpectedly
and lead to loss of control; unfastened, rotating
components will be ejected by force.
q) Do not leave the power tool running while
you carry it. Accidental contact of your clothing with the rotating attachment part could lead
to a physical injury.
r) Clean the ventilation slits of your power tool
regularly. The engine fan draws dust into the
housing and a strong accumulation of metal dust
can cause electrical hazards.
s) Do not use the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks can ignite such materials.
t) Do not use any attachment parts that require
liquid coolant. The use of water or other liquid
coolants may lead to an electric shock.

Additional safety instructions for all
applications
Kickback and corresponding safety instructions
Kickback is a sudden reaction caused when a rotating attachment part, e.g. grinding disc, abrasive
band, wire brush, etc. catches or jams. Catching
or jamming leads to an abrupt stop of the rotating
attachment part. If this happens, an uncontrolled
power tool will turn rapidly against the direction of
rotation of the attachment part.
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 him,
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 that
they can absorb the kickback forces. By
taking adequate precautions, the operator can
stay in control of the kickback forces.
b) Take special care when working around
corners, sharp edges, etc. Avoid allowing
the attachment part to bounce back from
the workpiece or jam in the workpiece. The
rotating attachment part is more likely to jam
on corners or sharp edges or if it bounces back
from them. This can cause a loss of control or
kickback.
c) Do not use toothed saw blades. Such attach-
ment parts often cause a kickback or loss of
control over the power tool.
d) Always move the attachment part in the
material in the same direction as the direction in which the cutting edge leaves the
material (in other words, the same direction in which the chips are thrown out).
Guiding the power tool in the wrong direction
will cause the cutting edge of the attachment
part to jump out of the workpiece, which can
lead to the attachment part being pulled in this
direction.
e) Always fix the workpiece when using rotary
files, high-speed milling tools or hard-metal
tools. Even a slight tilting in the groove can
cause these attachment parts to jam and lead
to a kickback. When a rotary file, high-speed
milling tool or hard-metal milling tool jams,
the accessory tool can jump out of the groove
and lead to loss of control of the power tool.
Supplementary safety instructions
for grinding
Special safety instructions for grinding:
a) Use only the grinding accessories approved
for your power tool and only for the recommended applications. Example: Never grind
with the side surface of a cutting disc. Cutting
discs are designed to remove material with the
edge of the disc. Any lateral application of
force on these grinding tools can lead to breakage.
b) Use only undamaged mandrels of the correct
size and length and without undercut on the
shoulder for conical and straight pencil grinders. Using an appropriate mandrel reduces the
risk of breakages.

Supplementary safety instructions
for working with wire brushes
Special safety instructions for working with
wire brushes:
a) Be aware that the wire brush loses wire
bristles even during normal operation. Do
not overstress the wires by applying excessive pressure to the brush. The wire bristles
can easily penetrate thin clothing and/or skin.
b) Allow the brush to run at working speed
for at least one minute before applying
it to the workpiece. Ensure that no one is
standing in front of or in line with the brush
during this time. Loose pieces of wire can
become airborne during the run-in period.
c) Aim the rotating steel brush away from
yourself. When working with these brushes,
small particles and minute pieces of wire can fly
off at great speed and pierce skin.
