Vibration details
Vibration total values (triaxial vector sum) determined according to EN 60745:
Polishing: Vibration emission value ah| 9,08 m/s²
Uncertainty K = 1,5 m/s2
WARNING: The vibration emission level will vary because of the ways in
which a power tool can be used and may increase above the level given in this
information sheet.
The vibration emission level may be used to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
An accurate estimate of the vibratory load should also take into account the
times when the tool is shut down or when it is running but not actually in
use. This may significantly reduce the vibratory load over the total working
period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the
effects of vibration such as: maintaining the tool and the accessories,
keeping the hands warm, and organization of work patterns.
**** Read and understand the operating instructions before using the
appliance. Familiarise yourself with the control elements and how to use the
appliance properly. Abide by all the safety measures stated in the service
manual. Act responsibly toward third parties.
The operator is responsible for accidents or risks to third parties.
Persons over 16 years of age can only work on the appliance. An exception
includes youngsters trained in order to reach knowledge under the supervision
of the trainer during occupational education.
In case of any doubts about connection and operation refer, please to our

Polisher safety warnings common for Polishing:
a) This power tool is intended to function as a polisher. Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations, and specifications provided with this
power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
b) Operations such as sanding, abrasive and rough grinding, and working with
wire brushes are not recommended to be performed with this power tool.
Operations for which the power tool was not designed may create a hazard and
cause personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories that are not specifically designed and recommended
by the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your
power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum
speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated
speed can break and fly apart.
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within the
capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be
adequately guarded or controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder spindle thread. For
accessories mounted by flanges, the arbor hole of the accessory must fit the
locating diameter of the flange. Accessories that do not match the mounting
hardware of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively, and
may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspects the accessory such
as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, a backing pad for cracks, tear, or
excess wear, and a wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If a power tool or
accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory.
After inspecting and installing an accessory, position yourself and bystanders
away from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at
maximum no-load speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break
apart during this test time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on the application, use a
face shield, safety goggles, or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear a dust
mask, hearing protectors, gloves, and shop apron capable of stopping small
abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of
stopping flying debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or
respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by your
operation. Prolonged exposure to high-intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from the work area. Anyone entering
the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of a
workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond the
immediate area of operation.
j) 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.
k) 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.
l) 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.
m) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
n) 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. Pinching
or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating wheel which in turn causes
the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the
wheel’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 the 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.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to
allow you to resist kickback forces. Always use an 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.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. The accessory may kick
back over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where the power tool will move if
kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in a direction opposite to the
wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
d) 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.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw blade. Such
blades create frequent kickback and loss of control. toothed saw blade.
Safety Warnings Specific for Polishing Operations:
a) 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 and Working Instructions
Never reach into the dangerous area of the machine when it is running.
Immediately switch off the machine in case of considerable vibrations or if
other malfunctions occur. Check the machine in order to find out the cause.
For accessories intended to be fitted with a threaded hole wheel, ensure that
the thread in the wheel is long enough to accept the spindle length.
The adjusting nut must be tightened before starting to work with the machine.
Always use the auxiliary handle.
The workpiece must be fixed if it is not heavy enough to be steady. Never move
the workpiece towards the rotating disk by hand.
Mains Connection
Operation is only allowed with a safety switch against stray current (RCD
max. stray current of 30mA).
Connect only to single-phase AC system voltage as indicated on the rating
plate. It is also possible to connect to sockets without an earthing contact
as the design conforms to safety class II.
Only plugin when the machine is switched off.
