For your own protection and for the
protection of your power tool, pay
attention to all parts of the text that are
marked with this symbol!
Always wear protective goggles.
During machining, of metals in
particular, conductive dust can
form deposits inside the machine. This can lead to
the transfer of electrical energy onto the machine
housing. This can mean a temporary danger of
electric shocks. This is why it is necessary when
the machine is running to blow compressed air
through the rear ventilation slots of the machine
regularly, frequently and thoroughly. Here, the
machine must be held firmly.
It is recommended to use a stationary extraction
system and to place a ground fault circuit inter-
rupter (GFCI) downstream. When the angle grinder
is shut down via the FI circuit breaker, it must be
checked and cleaned. See chapter
9 Cleaning for more information on cleaning the
motor.
Dust from material such as paint containing lead,
some wood species, minerals and metal may be
harmful. Contact with or inhalation of the dust may
cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory
diseases to the operator or bystanders.
Certain kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic
such as oak and beech dust especially in conjunc-
tion with additives for wood conditioning (chro-
mate, wood preservative). Material containing
asbestos must only be treated by specialists.
- Where the use of a dust extraction device is
possible it shall be used.
- The work place must be well ventilated.
- The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is
recommended.
Follow national requirements for the materials you
want to work with.
Materials that generate dusts or vapours that may
be harmful to health (e.g. asbestos) must not be
processed.
When working in dusty conditions, ensure that
ventilation openings are not blocked. If it becomes
necessary to remove dust, first disconnect the
power tool from the mains supply (use non-
metallic objects) and avoid damaging internal
components.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be
used.
Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electrical
cables and loadbearing walls (static).
Connect a FI circuit-breaker with max.
release current (30 mA) upstream when using the
machine outdoors!
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, converting or servicing the machine.
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defec-
tive additional handle.
A damaged or cracked safety guard must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defec-
tive safety guard.
Do not switch on the machine if tool parts or guard
devices are missing or defective.
Machines with a soft start (indicated by an "X" in
the model designation): An electronic error occurs
if the machine accelerates to maximum speed very
quickly when switched on. Other safety-related
electronic functions are no longer available. Have
the machine repaired immediately (see 12).
