DETAILED SAFETY REGULATIONS

SPECIFIC REGULATIONS REGARDING SAFE USE OF ANGLE GRINDER SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR GRINDING, PAPER SANDING, WORKING WITH WIRE BRUSHES AND USE OF CUTTING WHEELS

This tool can be used as a regular grinder, for use with sanding paper, wire brushes and cutting wheels. Follow all safety guidelines, instructions, descriptions and data supplied with the device. Failure to observe below guidelines may create risk of electric shock, fire and/or serious body injury.
Do not use this tool for polishing. Using the device for purposes other than it is designed for may create risks and cause body injuries.
Do not use equipment not designed and not recommended by the manufacturer for use with this power tool. Possibility of equipment installation in the device alone does not guarantee safe use.
Maximum permissible rotary speed of a working tool must not be ower than maximum rotary speed specified for the device. Working tool that exceeds permissible rotary speed may crack and part of it may splinter.
Outer diameter and thickness of working tool must match to the device dimensions. Working tools with incorrect dimensions may be insufficiently shielded or controlled.
Working tools with threaded insert must exactly match to spindle thread. In case of working tools fixed with collar, the working tool hole diameter must match to the collar diameter. Working tools that do not allow for precise attachment onto the device rotate unevenly, vibrate very hardly and can lead to loss of control over the device.
Do not use damaged working tools under any circumstances. Before each use check equipment, e.g. grinding wheels for dents and cracks, grinding plates for cracks, abrasion or heavy wear, wire brushes for loose or broken wires. In case of dropping the device or working tool, make sure it is not damaged or use other, undamaged tool. Once the working tool has been checked and installed, switch on the device and let it work for one minute at maximum speed. Make sure that operator and bystanders are beyond range of rotating tool. Damaged tools mostly break within such test time.
Wear personal protection equipment. Depending on the task, use protective mask that shields whole face, eye protection or safety glasses. When necessary use anti-dust mask, hearing protectors, work gloves or special apron that protects against small particles of grinding and grinded material. Protect eyes against particles produced at work and floating in the air. Anti-dust mask and respiratory protection must filter dust produced at work. Prolonged exposure to noise may lead to hearing loss.
Make sure to keep bystanders at safe distance outside of the range of the device. Each person close to operating device must use personal protection equipment. Splinters of processed piece or cracked working tool can chip off and cause damage also beyond direct range.
When carrying out tasks when the tool can hit hidden electric wires, hold it only by insulated areas of the handle. Contact with power supply line may transfer voltage to metal parts of the device and cause electric shock.
Never put away the device before working tool comes to complete stop. Rotating tool can contact the surface it is put on, which can cause loss of control over the device.
Do not carry the device when it is rotating. Accidental contact of rotating working tool with clothes may cause catching and plunging of working tool into operator’s body.
Clean ventilation holes of the device on regular basis. Motor blower sucks dust into casing and large depositions of metal dust may cause electric hazards.
Do not use the device in proximity of flammable materials. Sparks can cause ignition.
Do not use tools that require liquid coolant. Use of water or other liquid coolants may cause electric shock.

KICKBACK AND RELEVANT SAFETY GUIDELINES

Kick back is a sudden device reaction to locking or catching of rotating work tool, such as grinding wheel, disc, wire brush etc. Catching or locking causes sudden stopping of rotating work tool. Uncontrolled device is then pulled in direction opposite to work tool rotations. E.g. when grinding wheel jams itself in processed piece, wheel edge plunged in material may lock and cause breaking off or kick back. Grinding wheel movement (towards or away from operator) depends then on grinding wheel movement direction at the place it locked. Grinding wheel may also break.
Kick back is a result of inappropriate use of the device. It can be avoided by observing below mentioned safety precautions.
Hold the device firmly, position your hands and body to limit kick back effect. Always use additional handle when it is included in standard equipment, to have the greatest possible control of kick back forces and counter torque during start up. Tool operator can control sudden pulling and kick back effect by observing appropriate safety precautions.
Always keep your hands away from rotating working tools. As a result of kick back, working tool may cause hand injury.
Stay away from zone of device potential movement at kick back. At kick back, the device moves in direction opposite to movement of grinding wheel at the place of jamming.
Be very careful when processing corners, sharp edges etc. Prevent rebound or jamming of work tools.
Rotating work tool is more susceptible to jamming when processing corners, sharp edges or after rebound. It can cause loss of control or kick back.
Do not use cutting blades for wood or toothed blades.
Work tools of this type often cause kick back or loss of control over the device.

DETAILED SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR GRINDING AND CUTTING WITH A WHEEL

Only use grinding wheels designed for the device and shield designed for that wheel. Grinding wheels that are not proper accessories for the device may not be sufficiently shielded and safe.
Offset grinding wheels must be installed in such a way that the grinding surface does not protrude beyond edge of the safety guard. Unprofessionally installed grinding wheel that protrudes beyond edge of the safety guard cannot be shielded sufficiently.
The guard must be securely attached to the device to guarantee the
greatest safety possible. It must be positioned in such a way, that the
grinding wheel section that is unguarded and facing the operator
is reduced to minimum. The guard protects the operator from splinters,accidental contact with the grinding wheel, and sparks that otherwise could
light up clothes.
• Use grinding wheels only for tasks they are designed for.
• For example, do not use side surface of a cutting wheel for grinding.
Grinding wheels for cutting are designed to remove material with wheel edge. Side forces applied to the wheel may cause it to crack.
• Always use undamaged fixing flanges with size matching to the grinding wheel. Proper flanges support grinding wheel and reduce risk of breaking. Grinding wheels for cutting use flanges that may be different from flanges designed for other types of grinding wheels.
• Do not use worn out grinding wheels from bigger devices. Grinding wheels for bigger devices are not designed for higher rotational speed, which is specific for smaller devices, and therefore they may break.
ADDITIONAL DETAILED SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR CUTTING WITH A
GRINDING WHEEL
• Avoid jamming of cutting wheel and excessive pressure. Do not make too deep cuts. Overloading the cutting wheel increases its load and risk of jamming or locking, and in consequence kick back or wheel breaking.
Avoid areas in front and behind rotating cutting wheel. In the event of kick back, cutting wheel advance in work piece away from you may cause bouncing of the device with rotating wheel towards your hand.
In the event of jamming of cutting wheel or having a break in work, switch off the device and wait until the wheel comes to complete stop. Never attempt to remove rotating wheel from cut material, as this may cause kick back. Find and remove cause of jamming.
Do not switch on the device back, when it is still in processed material. Before cutting again, cutting wheel should reach its full rotational speed. Otherwise the cutting wheel may catch material, bounce out of work piece or cause kick back.
Support sheets and large objects before processing to minimise risk of kick back caused by jammed blade. Large objects can bend under own weight. Support work piece on both sides, at cutting line and near edge.
Be careful when cutting holes in walls and operating in other areas with reduced visibility. Wheel plunging into material may cause kick back after hitting gas lines, water pipes, electric wires and other objects.

Noise and vibration information
Noise produced by the device is defined with: level of produced sound pressure LpA and level of sound power LwA (where K is measurement uncertainty). Vibrations produced by the device are defined with vibration acceleration value ah (where K is measurement uncertainty).
Sound pressure LpA, sound power LwA
and vibration acceleration ah specified in this manual have been measured in accordance with EN 60745-1. Specified vibration level ah can be used to compare tools and for initial evaluation of exposition to vibrations.
Specified vibration level is representative for main applications of the device.
When the device is used for other purposes or with different working tools, the vibration level may change. Insufficient or too rare maintenance may increase vibration level. The abovementioned factors may lead to higher exposure to vibrations during whole working time.
To precisely define exposure to vibrations, include periods when the device is switched off and when it is switched on but not used for working. Once all factors have been carefully considered, total exposition to vibrations may be significantly lower.
To protect the user from results of exposure to vibrations, use additional safety measures such as: device and working tool periodic maintenance, proper hand temperature conditions, good work organisation.
