5 GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to heed warnings and follow instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Keep safety warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the safety warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

5.1 Working area

 Keep working area clean and well lit. Untidy and dark areas can lead to accidents.  Do not operate power tools in potentially explosive surroundings, for example, in the

presence of inflammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

 Keep children and bystanders at a distance when operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control of it.

5.2 Electrical safety

Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

 Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use

adapter plugs with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of a lethal electric shock.

 Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, kitchen ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of a lethal electric shock if your body is earthed.

 Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. If water gets inside a power tool, it will

increase the risk of a lethal electric shock.

 Do not damage the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power

tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of a lethal electric shock.

 When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable suitable for outdoor use.

Using a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of a lethal electric shock.

 If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a power supply protected

by a residual current device (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of a lethal electric shock.

5.3 Personal safety

 Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power

tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when operating a power tool may result in serious personal injury.

 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety equipment such as a

dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection whenever it is needed will reduce the risk of personal injury.

 Avoid accidental starts. Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting the plug.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools when the switch is in the on position makes accidents more likely.

 Remove any adjusting keys or spanners before turning on the power tool. A spanner or

key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

 Do not reach out too far. Keep your feet firmly on the ground at all times. This will enable

you retain control over the power tool in unexpected situations.

 Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and

gloves away from the power tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can become entangled in the moving parts.

 If there are devices for connecting dust extraction and collection facilities, please ensure

that they are attached and used correctly. Using such devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

5.4 Power tool use and care

 Do not expect the power tool to do more than it can. Use the correct power tool for what

you want to do. A power tool will achieve better results and be safer if used in the context for which it was designed.

 Do not use the power tool if the switch cannot turn it on and off. A power tool with a broken

switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

 Disconnect the plug from the power source before making adjustments, changing

accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

 Store power tools, when not in use, out of the reach of children and do not allow people

who are not familiar with the power tool or these instructions to operate it. Power tools are potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

 Maintenance. Check for misalignment or jammed moving parts, breakages or any other

feature that might affect the operation of the power tool. If it is damaged, the power tool must be repaired. Many accidents are caused by using poorly maintained power tools.

 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting

edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.

 Use the power tool, accessories and cutting tools, etc., in accordance with these

instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work which needs to be done. Using a power tool in ways for which it was not intended can lead to potentially hazardous situations.

5.5 Service

 Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare

parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.

6 SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ANGLE GRINDERS

 Check that the maximum speed indicated on the grinding disc corresponds to the

maximum speed of the machine. The speed of the machine must not exceed the value on the grinding disc.

Page 6

POW2086 EN

 Make sure that the dimensions of the grinding disc correspond to the specifications of the

machine.

 Make sure that the grinding disc has been mounted and fastened properly. Do not use

reducing rings or adapters to make the grinding disc fit properly.

 Treat and store grinding discs in conformance with the supplier’s instructions.  Do not use the machine for grinding workpieces with a maximum thickness exceeding the

maximum grinding depth of the grinding disc.

 Do not use grinding discs for deburring.  When grinding discs have to be mounted on the thread of the spindle, make sure that the

spindle has sufficient thread. Make sure that the spindle is sufficiently protected and does not touch the grinding surface.

 Before use, inspect the grinding disc for any damage. Do not use grinding discs which are

cracked, ripped or otherwise damaged.

 Before use, let the machine run idle for 30 seconds.  Immediately switch off the machine in case of abnormal vibrations or occurrence of

another defect. Carefully inspect the machine and grinding disc before switching the machine on again.

 Make sure that sparks do not put people into danger or that they contact highly flammable

substances.

 Make sure that the workpiece is sufficiently supported or clamped. Keep your hands away

from the surface to be cut.

 Always wear safety goggles and hearing protection. If desired or required also use another

kind of protection like for example an apron or helmet.

 Ensure that mounted wheels and points are fitted in accordance with the manufacturer’s

instructions.

 Ensure that blotters are used when they are provided with the bonded abrasive product

and when they are required.

 If a guard is supplied with the tool never use the tool without such a guard.  For tools intended to be fitted with threaded hole wheel, ensure that the thread in the

wheel is long enough to accept the spindle length.

 Ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear when working in dusty conditions. If it

should become necessary to clear dust, first disconnect the tool from the mains supply (use non metallic objects) and avoid damaging internal parts.

 Though poor conditions of the electrical mains, shortly voltage drops can appear when

starting the equipment. This can influence other equipment (eq. blinking of a lamp). If the mains-impedance Zmax <0.348 Ohm, such disturbances are not expected. (In case of need, you may contact your local supply authority for further information.
