SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Read all the safety instructions and other instructions. Failure to follow the safety instructions and other instructions can result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury. Save all the safety instructions and other instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the safety instructions refers to your mains-powered (corded) or battery-powered (cordless) power tool.

SAFETY IN THE WORK AREA

Make sure the work area is clean and well lit. Untidy or poorly lit work areas can cause accidents.
Do not work with this power tool inenvironments where there is a risk of explosion, or where there are flammable liquids, gas or dust. Power tools produce sparks that can ignite dust and fumes.
Keep children and other persons at a safe distance when using the power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control of the tool.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

The plug on the power tool must match the power point. The plug must not be modified in any way. Do not use adapter plugs together with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.
Do not expose the power tool to rain ormoisture. There is an increased risk of electric shock if water enters a power tool.
Do not use the power cord for other purposes, e.g. to carry or hang up the power tool, or to pull the plug out of the power point. Protect the power cord from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving machine parts. Damaged or tangled power cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When working outdoors with the power tool only use an extension cord intended for outdoor use.
If you have to use the power tool in damp conditions use a residual current device. Use of a residual current device reduces the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Pay full attention to what you are doing.
Use your common sense when working with power tools. Do not use power tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention can result in serious personal injury.
Use personal safety equipment and always wear safety glasses. The use of personal protective equipment, e.g. dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, helmet and ear protection, according to the type of power tool and application, reduces the risk of injury.
Avoid accidently starting the power tool. Check that the tool is switched off before connecting it to the power supply and/or battery, or before lifting it or carrying it. Avoid holding your finger on the power switch when carrying the power tool. If the power tool is connected to the power supply when the power switch is switched on this can result in personal injury.
Remove adjusting tools before starting the power tool. A tool or screwdriver left in a rotating machine part can result in personal injury.
Avoid awkward postures. Make sure you have a firm footing and can maintain your balance at all times. This will ensure you have better control over the power tool in unexpected situations.
Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. Do not allow your hair, clothes or gloves to come near moving parts. Loose-fitting clothing jewellery or long hair can get caught in moving parts.
If dust extraction devices can be fitted, make sure they are properly connected and used. Dust extraction reduces dust related risks.

USING AND LOOKING AFTER POWER TOOLS

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for the planned work. The tool does the job better and safer when used at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the tool if it cannot be switched on and off with the power switch. Power tools that cannot be controlled with the power switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
Unplug the power cord before making any adjustments, changing accessories or putting the power tool away. These safety precautions reduce the risk of accidently starting the power tool.
Store power tools out of the reach of children when not in use. Never allow children, or anyone who is unfamiliar with the power tool and these instructions, to use the tool. Power tools are dangerous if used by inexperienced persons.
Keep power tools properly maintained. Check that moving parts are properly adjusted and do not jam, and that no parts are incorrectly fitted or damaged. Check for other factors that could affect functionality. If the power tool is damaged, it must be repaired before being used again. 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 jam and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and bits etc., in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the actual working conditions and the work that is to be done. It can be dangerous to use power tools for purposes other than those they are intended to be used for.

USING AND MAINTAINING BATTERYPOWERED TOOLS

Charge the batteries only with the charger recommended by the manufacturer. The use of another charger can result in the risk of personal injury and fire.
Only use batteries intended for the power tool. The use of other batteries can result in the risk of personal injury and fire.
Do not allow batteries to come into contact with paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other small metal objects that can result in short circuiting. Short circuiting the battery terminals can result in the risk of burn injuries or fire.
Incorrect use can cause liquid to leak from the battery. Avoid touching this. Rinse with water after unintentional contact. Seek medical attention if you get battery fluid in your eyes. Leaking battery fluid can cause skin irritation or burn injuries.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Kickback and other warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction when a rotating disc, backing pad, brush or other accessory jams or catches on something. Jamming or catching will cause the rotating accessory to block suddenly, which in turn can force the power tool in the opposite direction to the rotating accessory. For example, if a grinding disc pinches or sticks in the workpiece, the edge of the disc that goes in at the sticking point could dig into the material and cause the disc to recoil and kick back. The disc can jump either towards or away from the user, depending on the direction of rotation of the disc when it jams. Grinding discs can also break in these situations. Kickback is a result of the incorrect use of the power tool, and/or incorrect procedures and working conditions. Kickback can be avoided by observing the safety measures described below:

Keep a firm grip on the tool and position your body and arm so you can resist the force of a sudden kickback. Always use the support handle, if there is one, for maximum control of the kickback or torque response when starting the tool. The user can control torque response and kickback if the appropriate precautions are taken.
Never put your hands near the rotating accessory. Kickback can cause the accessory to touch your hand.
Keep your body away from the area where the power tool will go if there is a kickback. Kickback forces the tool in the opposite direction to the rotation of the disc.
Take extra care when working on corners and sharp edges, etc. Avoid letting the accessory bounce or catching. Corners, sharp edges and bouncing can cause the rotating accessory to catch and cause the user to lose control of the tool, or cause it to kick back.

SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR GRINDING AND ABRASIVE CUTTING

Use only the types of disc recommended for your power tool and the specific guard designed for your chosen disc. Discs that the tool is not designed for cannot be properly protected and are therefore not safe.
The grinding surface on discs with a recessed centre must be fitted below the plane of the protective flange. An incorrectly fitted discthat projects through the plane of the guard flange cannot be properly protected.
The guard must be firmly fixed to the power tool and positioned for maximum safety, so that the smallest possible part of the disc is exposed to the user. The guard helps to protect the user against broken-off fragments of disc, accidental contact with the disc, and sparks that could set fire to clothing.
Discs must only be used for the recommended applications. For example: Do not grind with the side of a cutting disc. Abrasive cutting discs are intended for grinding with the outer edges. If lateral forces are applied to these discs, they can shatter.
Always use undamaged disc flanges of the right size and shape for the disc you have chosen. Correct disc flanges support the disc and therefore reduce the risk of the disc breaking. Flanges for cutting discs can differ from flanges for grinding discs.
Do not use worn down discs from a largerpower tool. Discs from larger power tools are not suitable for the higher speeds of small tools and can shatter.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BONDED GRINDING DISCS

Grinding discs can break and are sensitive to impact and pressure. For this reason take the following precautions when handling grinding discs:

Do not drop grinding discs or subject them to knocks and blows.
Do not use damaged grinding discs or discs that have been dropped.
Avoid damaging the centre hole.
Do not subject grinding discs to heavy weights; do not put anything on top of them.
Store grinding discs flat, or upright in a dry and frost-free place.
When possible keep grinding discs in their original packaging, or in special containers or on special shelves.

VIBRATION AND NOISE ATTENUATION

To reduce the effects of noise and vibrations you should limit the time in use, use the low-vibration and low-noise modes, and wear personal safety equipment. Observe the following to minimise the risk of exposure to vibrations and loud noise:

Only use the power tool for the purpose it was designed for, and in accordance with these instructions.
Make sure that the power tool is in good condition and well maintained.
Use the right accessories for the power tool and make sure they are in good condition.
Keep a firm grip on the handles/gripping surface.
Maintain the power tool in accordance with these instructions and make sure it is well lubricated (where applicable).
Plan the work schedule to spread the use of tools with heavy vibrations over a longer period.
