5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replace-
ment parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.
b) Always arrange for the replacement of the
plug or the power cord to be carried out by
the manufacturer of the appliance or by his
approved customer services. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety instructions for all
applications
Special safety instructions for grinding and
abrasive cutting:
a) This power tool is to be used as a grinder and
abrasive cutting appliance. Please follow all
safety instructions, instructions, diagrams and
data that you receive with the appliance. If
you do not observe the following instructions,
this can lead to an electrical shock, fire and/or
serious injuries.
b) This power tool is not suitable for sandpaper
sanding, working with a steel brush or bur-
nishing. Using the power tool for applications
for which it is not designed can lead to hazards
and injuries.
c) Do not use any accessories that have not
been specifically provided or recommended
by the manufacturer for this power tool. Just
because you can attach the accessories to your
power tool does not guarantee they are safe to
use.
d) The maximum speed of the accessory tool
used must be at least as high as the maximum
speed specified for the power tool. Acces-
sories that rotate faster than the permissible rate
can break and throw pieces into the air.
e) The external diameter and thickness of the
accessory tool used must comply with the di-
mensions of the power tool. Incorrectly dimen-
sioned accessory tools cannot be sufficiently
shielded or controlled.
f) Attachment tools with a thread insert must
match the thread of the grinding spindle ex-
actly. For attachment tools that are mounted
using a flange, the diameter of the hole on
the attachment tool must correspond to the
width of the fitment on the flange. Accessory
tools that do not exactly fit on the grinding
spindle rotate unevenly, vibrate severely and
can lead to a loss of control.
g) Never use damaged accessory tools. Check
accessory tools such as grinding discs before
each use for chips or cracks, grinding plates
for cracks, wearing or excessive wear and
tear and wire brushes for loose or broken
wires. If the power tool or the accessory tool
in use is dropped, check to see if it is dam-
aged or use an undamaged accessory tool.
When you have checked and inserted the
accessory tool, ensure that you and any other
persons in the vicinity remain outside of the
level of the rotating accessory tool and allow
the tool to rotate at maximum speed for one
minute. Damaged accessories usually break
during the test period.
h) Wear personal protective equipment. De-
pending on the application, ensure that you
use full face protection, eye protection or
goggles. Use a dust mask, hearing protec-
tion, protective gloves or special apron that
protect you from grindings and material
particles as required. Protected your eyes from
flying debris that may be created during certain
applications. Dust or filter masks must be used
to filter any dust created by the application. If
you are exposed to loud noise for any length of
time, you may suffer hearing loss.
i) Ensure that other people remain at a safe dis-
tance to your workspace. Anyone who enters
the workspace must wear personal protective
equipment. Fragments of the workpiece or bro-
ken accessory tools can fly off and cause injury
– even outside the immediate working area.
