General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and

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.

1. Work area safety a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and 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. 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 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 location 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 inattention 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 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

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, 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 these devices can

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 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 tools 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.

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.

c. Do not use accessories which are not speciﬁcally

designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your

(Or iginal instructions) ENGLISH

power tool, it does not assure safe operation.

d. The rated speed of the accessory must be at least

equal to the maximum speed marked on the power

tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed

can break and ﬂy apart.

e. The outside diameter and the thickness of your

accessory must be within the capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories can not be

adequately guarded or controlled.

f. Threaded mounting of accessories must match the

grinder spindle thread. For accessories mounted by

ﬂanges, the arbor hole of the accessory must ﬁt the locating diameter of the ﬂange. Accessories that do not

match the mounting hardware of the power tool will run out

of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of

control.

g. Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use

inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheel for chips and cracks. If power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and installing an accessory, position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute.

Stop immediately if there is a considerable vibration or if

other defects are detected. If this condition occurs, check the machine to determine the cause. Always store the

abrasive wheel safely and on dry places outside of the

reach of children. Damaged accessories will normally break apart during this test time.

h. Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on

application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and shop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The

eye protection must be capable of stopping ﬂying

debris generated by various operations. The dust mask

or respirator must be capable of ﬁltrating particles

generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.

i. Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work

area. Anyone entering the work area must wear

personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece

or of a broken accessory may ﬂy away and cause injury

beyond immediate area of operation.

j. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when

performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory

contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric

shock.

k. Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If

you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning accessory.

ENGLISH (Original instr uctions )

l. Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has

come to a complete stop. The spinning accessory may

grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your control.

m. Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your

side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could

snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.

n. Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The motor’s

fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive

accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.

o. Do not operate the power tool near ﬂammable

materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.

p. Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.

Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

FURTHER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL

OPERATIONS

Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel or any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the point of the binding.

For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by

the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator, depending on direction of

the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive

wheels may also break under these conditions.

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:

a. Maintain a ﬁrm grip on the power tool and position

your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for

maximum control over kickback or torque reaction

during start up. The operator can control torque reaction or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.

b. Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.

Accessory may kickback over your hand.

c. Do not position your body in the area where power

tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel

the tool in direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at

the point of snagging.

d. Use special care when working corners, sharp edges

etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory.

Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to

snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or

kickback.

e. Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or

toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback

and loss of control.

Safety Warnings Speciﬁc for Grinding

a. Use only wheel types that are recommended for your

power tool and the speciﬁc guard designed for the

selected wheel. Wheels for which the power tool was not designed cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe.

b. The grinding surface of the centre depressed wheels

must be mounted below the plane of the guard lip. An

improperly mounted wheel that projects through the plane of the guard lip cannot be adequately protected.

c. The guard must be securely attached to the power

tool and positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards the operator. The

guard helps to protect the operator from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact with wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.

d. Wheels must be used only for recommended

applications. For example: do not grind with the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for

peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.

e. Always use undamaged wheel ﬂanges that are of

correct size and shape for your selected wheel. Proper

wheel ﬂanges support the wheel thus reducing the

possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels

may be different from grinding wheel ﬂanges.

f. Do not use worn down wheels from larger power

tools. Wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable

for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.

Additional Safety Information

• This tool is not designed to be used with wire wheels and

wire cup.

WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual

current device with a residual current rating of

30mA or less.

RESIDUAL RISKS

In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided. These are:

_ Impairment of hearing

– Risk of personal injury due ﬂying particles.

– Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot during

operation. – Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use. – Risk of dust from hazardous substances.
