• Be very careful when working on painted surfaces.
• Do not use accessories that are not specifically designed and recommended by the manufacturer. Risk of personal injury.
• Inspect the machine and the accessories before each use. Do not use accessories which are bent, cracked, or otherwise damaged. If the machine or one of the accessories is dropped, inspect the machine or the accessory for damage. If necessary, replace the accessory.
• Only use accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer.
• Only use accessories that are suitable for the application.
• Only use accessories with the correct dimensions.
• Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Risk of electric shock.
• Make sure that the accessories are properly mounted. Do not use adapters or other aids to mount accessories with another spindle diameter.
• Make sure that the maximum speed for the accessory is larger than or the same as the maximum speed of the machine. Refer to the rating plate on the machine.
• Let the machine run at no load in a safe area after mounting the accessories. If the machine vibrates strongly, immediately switch off the machine, remove the mains plug from the mains, and try to solve the problem.
• Make sure that the workpiece is properly supported or fixed.

• Hold the machine by the insulated gripping surfaces where the accessory may contact hidden wiring or the mains cable. If the accessory contacts a ‘live’ wire, the exposed metal parts of the machine can also become ‘live’. Risk of electric shock.
• Do not use the machine while carrying it at your side. Risk of personal injury.
• Do not use the machine near flammable materials. Risk of fire.
• Beware that the accessory continues to rotate for a short period after switching off the machine. Do not attempt to bring the accessory to a standstill yourself.

Electrical safety

Always check that the voltage of the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

• Do not use the machine if the mains cable or the mains plug is damaged.
• Only use extension cables that are suitable for the power rating of the machine with a minimum thickness of 1.5 mm2. If you use an extension cable reel, always fully unroll the cable.

Mains plug replacement (UK only)

If the moulded 3-pin plug attached to the unit is damaged and needs replacing, it is important that it is correctly destroyed and replaced by an approved BS 1363/3A fused plug and that the following wiring instructions are followed.
The wires in the mains cable are coloured in accordance with the following code:

• blue neutral
• brown live

As the colours of the wires in the mains cable of the unit may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in the plug, proceed as follows:

• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.
• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
