the initial and any following operation.
▪ Make sure the power supply voltage corre-
sponds to the value indicated on the name
plate with technical data of the tool.
▪ Always check the position of ON/OFF switch.
The power tool must be connected and dis-
connected to the power supply socket only
when this switch is in OFF position. If the plug
is connected to a receptacle while the power
switch is in the ON position, the power tool
will start operating immediately, which could
cause a serious accident.
▪ Make sure that the cord and the plug are in
order. If the replacement of the supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the manu-
facturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety
hazard.
WARNING: Always switch off and un-
plug the power tool prior to any adjustment,
servicing or maintenance.
▪ When using diamond cutting discs, pay atten-
tion that the direction-of-rotation arrow on the
diamond cutting disc and the direction of rota-
tion of the machine (see direction-of-rotation
arrow on the machine head) agree.
▪ Make sure the grinding wheel diameter and
thickness do not exceed the values specified
on the name plate. The peripheral speed in-
dicated on the wheel must not be less than
80 m/s. The wheels must be stored according
the recommendations of the manufacturer.
▪ In case the work area is remote from the pow-
er source, use as short as practicable exten-
sion cord with proper cross-section.
▪ Check that the auxiliary handle is properly
mounted and reliably tightened.

should not operate after supply recovering.
To start operating the machine, first switch
off and then switch on the lever of ON/Off
switch 7.
WHEEL GUARD

ting wheel 2.2 accordingly) must always be
mounted on the machine!
WARNING: Before performing the fol-
lowing operations, switch off and unplug the
