Special Safety Instructions

4.1 Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding, Wire Brushing, Polishing or Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:
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 grinding, sanding, wire brushing or cutting-off 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 which 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 arbour 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 inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear or excess wear, 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 application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop 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 filtering particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning accessory.
k) 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.
l) 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.
m) 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.
n) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
4.2 Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory’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 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 the 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. Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in 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 woodcarvings blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.
4.3 Safety Warnings Specific for Polishing: Loose parts on the polishing guard, especially the fastening cords, are not permitted. Tuck away or shorten the fastening cords. Loose, spinning fastening cords may make contact with your fingers or become caught in the workpiece.
4.4 Additional Safety Instructions
Use elastic cushioning layers if they have been supplied with the abrasive and if required.
Observe the specifications of the tool or accessory manufacturer!
Accessories must be stored and handled with care in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Ensure that accessories are installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
The tool continues running after the machine has been switched off.
The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against slipping, e.g. using clamps. Large workpieces must be sufficiently supported.
If accessories with threaded inserts are used, the end of the spindle may not touch the base of the hole on the grinding tool. Make sure that the thread in the accessory is long enough to accommodate the full length of the spindle. The thread in the accessory must match the thread on the spindle. See page 2 and chapter 13. Technical Specifications for more information on the spindle length and thread.
** Always wear protective goggles.
Conductive dust may collect inside the machine during the process. 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.
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.
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any adjustments, converting or servicing the machine.
Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the switch when the plug is removed from the mains socket or in case of a power cut.
Metabo S-automatic safety clutch. When the safety clutch responds, switch off the machine immediately!
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective additional handle.
Reduce dust exposure:**
Some dust created by using this power tool may contain chemicals known to cause cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: Lead from lead based paints, crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber, hardwood like oak or beech, Metals, Asbestos.
The risk from these exposures depends on how long you or bystanders are being exposed.
Do not let particles enter the body.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material, staff, application and place of application (e.g. occupational health and safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work (see chapter 10.), thus less particles enter the environment in an uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:

• Do not direct the escaping particles and the exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons or on dust deposits.
• Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers
• Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep clean using a vacuum cleaner Sweeping or blowing stirs up dust

Vacuum or wash the protective clothing Do not blow, beat or brush

Kh,P = Uncertainty (vibration)
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It is also suitable for a provisional estimate of the vibratory load.
The specified vibration level applies to the main applications of the power tool. However, if the tool is used for other applications, with different accessories or is poorly maintained, the vibration level may vary. This can considerably increase the vibratory load over the entire working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This can considerably reduce the vibratory load over the entire working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
