Special safety information for grinding/san-
ding and cutting-off
a) Use only grinding/sanding wheels that
have been approved for your electric tool
and the safety hood designed for these
grinding/sanding wheels. Grinding/sanding
wheels which are not designed for the electric
tool cannot be shielded adequately and are
unsafe.
b) The safety hood must be securely faste-
ned to the electric tool and adjusted so
that it offers maximum safety, in other
words it prevents the smallest possible
part of the grinding/sanding wheel from
striking the operator. The safety hood is
designed to protect the operator from broken
pieces and accidental contact with the grin-
ding/sanding wheel.
c) Grinding/sanding wheels may only be
used for the applications for which they
are recommended. For example: Never
grind/sand a side surface area with a
cutting-off wheel. Cutting-off wheels are
designed for removing material with the edge
of the wheel. Applying lateral force to these
cutting-off wheels can cause them to break.
d) Always use undamaged clamping flan-
ges of the correct size and shape for the
grinding/sanding wheel you have selec-
ted. Suitable flanges support the grinding/
sanding wheel and thus reduce the risk of the
grinding/sanding wheel breaking. Flanges for
cutting-off wheels may differ from the flanges
for other grinding/sanding wheels.
e) Do not used worn grinding/sanding
wheels from larger electric tools. Grinding/
sanding wheels for larger electric tools are
not designed for the higher speeds of smaller
electric tools and may break.
Other special safety information for cutting-
off wheels
a) Avoid blocking the cutting-off wheel or
applying excessive contact pressure.
Do not make any excessively deep cuts.
Overloading the cutting-off wheel will increa-
se the stress on it and its susceptibility to jam
or block and therefore the possibility of recoil
or of the grinding wheel breaking.
b) Avoid the area in front of and behind the
rotating cutting-off wheel. If you move the
cutting-off wheel in the workpiece away from
yourself, in the event of recoil the electric tool
and the rotating wheel may be catapulted
directly towards you.

c) If the cutting-off wheel jams or you inter-
rupt your work, switch off the tool and
hold it still until the wheel has reached a
complete standstill. Never attempt to pull
the cutting-off wheel out of the cut whilst
it is still rotating, otherwise it may suffer
recoil. Find and rectify the cause of the jam.
d) Do not switch the electric tool on again
whilst it is inside the workpiece. Allow
the cutting-off disk to reach its full speed
before you continue the cut with care.
Otherwise the wheel may catch, jump out of
the workpiece or cause recoil.
e) Support panels or large workpieces to
reduce the risk of recoil by a jammed
cutting-off wheel. Large workpieces may
sag under their own weight. The workpiece
must be supported on both sides of the wheel
both near the cut and also at the edge.
f)
Be particularly careful with "pocket cuts"
in existing walls or in areas which you
cannot see clearly. As the cutting-off disk
enters the cut it may suffer recoil if it cuts into
gas or water pipes, electric cables or other
objects.
