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.
Hold the 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Do not operate the power tool near flammable

materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.

Using water or other liquid coolants may result in
electrocution or shock.

Kickback and Related Warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating
wheel, backing pad, brush 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 power tool
misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
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 reactions
or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.
Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.

Accessory may kickback over your hand.
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.
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.
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
Operations
Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing

bonnet or its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck
away or trim any loose attachment strings.
Loose and spinning attachment strings can entangle
your fingers or snag on the workpiece.

Additional safety instructions

The mains voltage and the voltage specifications on the

rating plate must correspond.
Do not press the spindle lock until the tool stops.


Noise and vibration

NOTE
Values for the A-weighted sound pressure level and for the
total vibration values can be found in the table on page 5.
The noise and vibration values have been determined in
accordance with EN 62841.
CAUTION!
The indicated measurements refer to new power tools. Daily
use causes the noise and vibration values to change.
NOTE
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has
been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It
may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The
declared vibration emission level represents the main
applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the
vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the
exposure level over the total working period.
However if the tool is used for different applications, with different
accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may
differ. This may significantly decrease the exposure level over
the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from
the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work
patterns.
CAUTION!
Wear ear protection at a sound pressure above 85 dB(A).
