The values stated are emission values and as such do not necessarily constitute values that are safe for the workplace. Although there is a correlation between emission levels and environmental impact levels, whether further precautions are necessary cannot be derived from this. Factors influencing the actually present environmental impact level in the workplace include the characteristics of the work area and other noise sources, i.e. the number of machines and other neighboring work processes. The permitted workplace values can likewise vary from country to country. This information is intended to assist the user in estimating hazards and risks.

Read and understand the operating instructions before using the appliance. Abide by all the safety measures stated in the service manual. Act responsibly toward third parties. In case of any doubts about connection and operation refer please to our customer center.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNUNG
Read all safety warnings and all 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.

Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well lit.  Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks that may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.  Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

• 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.
• 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.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.  Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• 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..
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.  The use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (protected supply.  Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

• 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.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to a power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• 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.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.  This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.  Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.  The use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.  Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• 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.

Service
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.

The power tool must stand or be fixed to a horizontal and level surface (e.g. work table) Switch the machine off and unplug it when unattended.

• Check all screw and plug-in connections and protective equipment if firm and tightened properly and whether all moving parts are running smoothly whenever the appliance is to be put into operation.
• The protective equipment on the appliance is strictly prohibited to be disassembled, changed, or used in conflict with the designation and it is prohibited to attach any protective equipment of other manufacturers.
• The appliance must not be used if damaged or safety equipment is defective. Replace any worn-out and damaged parts.

Any defect on the power tool, including on the protective equipment or abrasive wheel must be reported to a safety engineer immediately after it is identified. Before use check the machine, cable, and plug for any damages or material fatigue. Repairs should only be carried out by authorized Service Agents.

Make sure the abrasive wheel is fitted properly before pressing the O Off button. To make sure the work is safe, use equipment such as power tool supports, magnifying glass, workpiece holder, etc. Removing sawdust and chippings from the machine when running is strictly prohibited. Do not use blunt, damaged or distorted circular saw blades. Choose the abrasive wheel suitable for the given workpiece. Abrasive wheels not corresponding to the characteristics given in these Operating Instructions may not be used. The maximum revolutions given on the abrasive wheel must be respected. Familiarise with the safety procedures for cleaning, maintenance and regular removal of sawdust and dust to reduce the risk of fire. Make sure the flange used is suitable for the given purpose of use, as specified by the manufacturer. The power tool must immediately be switched off if it gets blocked. Unplug the power tool and remove the stuck workpiece. At frequent intervals, check the adjustment of the protection against sparks and set the abrasive wheel wear properly. Keep the distance between the protection against sparks and the abrasive wheel small if possible (max. 2 mm). At regular intervals, check the workpiece support adjustment and set the abrasive wheel to wear properly. Do not grind with a cold abrasive wheel. Let the abrasive wheel run idle for one minute before starting your work. Do not grind on the side surfaces of the wheel. Grind on the front side only. Do not apply the coolant directly on the abrasive wheel. The coolant may affect the adhesion of the abrasive wheel and cause its failure. Abrasive wheel to be leveled on the front side only. High temperatures are present when grinding. Do not touch the workpiece before it has sufficiently cooled down.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
