2.2 Electrical safety

a. Power tool plugs must match the out- let. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs which earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplug- ging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f. Always use tool in conjunction with a residual circuit breaker device. The use of a residual circuit breaker device reduces the risk of electric shock.

a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operat- ing a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medica- tion. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce per- sonal injuries. c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotat- ing part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unex- pected situations. f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g. If devices are provided for the connec- tion of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. The use of these pieces of equipment reduce hazards caused by dust.

2.4 Power tool use and care

a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your applica- tion. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjust- ments, changing accessories, or stor- ing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e. Maintain power tools. Check for mis- alignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condi- tion that may affect the power tools 7062851-Angle-Grinder-2200W-Ma-1801-15.indb 5 26-03-18 10:55English

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many acci- dents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.

a. Please use a qualied expert who uses original replacement parts to repair your power tool. This will ensure proper functioning of the power tool.

3. Safety warnings common for

grinding or abrasive cutting-off operations a. This power tool is intended to function as a grinder tool. Read all safety warn- ings, instructions, illustrations and specications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instruc- tions listed below may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury. b. Operations such as sanding, wire brushing, polishing are not recom- mended to be performed with this power tool. Operations for which the power tool was not designed may cre- ate a hazard and cause personal injury. c. Do not use accessories which are not specically designed and recom- mended 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 maxi- mum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break and y apart. e. The outside diameter and the thick- ness 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 anges, the arbour hole of the acces- sory must t the locating diameter of the ange. 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 power tool or acces- sory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and installing an acces- sory, position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one min- ute. 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 frag- ments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping ying debris gener- ated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of ltrating 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 protec- tive equipment. Fragments of work- piece or of a broken accessory may y away and cause injury beyond immedi- ate area of operation. 7062851-Angle-Grinder-2200W-Ma-1801-15.indb 6 26-03-18 10:557 English j. Hold the power tool by insulated grip- ping surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting acces- sory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contact- ing a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock. k. 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. l. 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. m. Do not run the power tool while carry- ing it at your side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body. n. 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. o. Do not operate the power tool near ammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials. p. Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocu- tion or shock.

4. Kickback and related warnings

Kickback is the sudden reaction of a wedged or locked spinning attachment such as a grinding or sanding disc or a wire brush etc. This causes the spinning attach- ment to come to a sudden stop, which will force the electric tool against the rotating direction of the attachment. If, for instance, a cutting disc becomes locked or jammed in the work piece, the edge of the disc may fracture inside the work piece and cause a violent kickback. The disc will then move away from or towards the operator, depending on the direction of rotation on the locking point. This may also shatter the disc. Kickback is caused by wrong or inappropri- ate use of the tool and can be avoided by following the safety advice below. a. Hold the electric tool tightly with both hands and assume a position, in which you can compensate a kickback. If present, use the accessory handle to be able to control kickback and coun- termovement of the running motor. With the necessary precautions the operator can control all forces of kick- back and countermovement. b. Keep your hand away from the spin- ning attachment. A kickback can throw the attachment onto your hand. c. Keep your body out of the area into which the tool is thrown by a kickback. The tool is thrown into the direction reverse to the direction of the disc at the locking point. d. Use extreme care when working around edges or sharp corners. Make sure the attachment cannot become locked into or bounce back from the work piece. Rotating discs tend to lock into or bounce back from edges and corners. This may cause kickback or loss of control. e. Do not attach a saw chain woodcarv- ing blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.

5. Safety warnings specic for

grinding and abrasive cutting-off operations a. Use only discs intended for your elec- tric tool and the protective hood intended for these discs. Discs not intended for the electric tool cannot be covered in a suitable way and are unsafe. b. The grinding surface of centre depressed wheels must be mounted below the plane of the guard lip. An improperly mounted wheel that projects through the plane of the guard lip can- not be adequately protected. 7062851-Angle-Grinder-2200W-Ma-1801-15.indb 7 26-03-18 10:55English

c. Always use the protective hood intended for the kind of attachment you are using. The protective hood must be securely attached and be adjusted in such a way that the high- est possible degree of safety is achieved, e.g. the smallest possible part of the spinning attachment point- ing to the operator is free. The protec- tive hood is intended to protect the operator from ying debris, fragments of a fractured disc and accidental con- tact with the attachment. d. Use discs only for the purpose they are intended for by the manufacturer. Never use the side of a cutting disc for grinding. Cutting discs are intended for cutting only. Lateral forces may cause fracture. e. Always use undamaged anges of the correct size and shape for your cutting disc. The correct anges support the disc and reduce the risk of a disc frac- ture. Flanges for cutting discs can differ from those for grinding discs. f. Do not use worn-down discs from larger electric tools. These are not intended for the fast speeds of smaller electric tools and may fracture.

6. Additional safety warnings spe-

cic for abrasive cutting-off operations Cut-off operations are only suitable with a special protection guard (6b) (not included) a. Avoid blocking the disc and do not use excessive pressure. Do not attempt excessively deep cuts. Excessive loads on the cutting disc increase the stress and make it more prone to jamming or blocking and increase the risk of kick- back of fracture. b. Do not position your body in line with and behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving away from your body, the possi- ble kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you. c. When wheel is binding or when inter- rupting a cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding. d. Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or kick- back if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece. e. Support panels or any oversized work- piece to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large work- pieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel. f. Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.

Even when you use this electric power tool correctly, residual risks remain. The follow- ing dangers may arise in connection with the construction and application of electric power tools, among other things:

• Lung damage if no suitable protective dust mask is used.

• Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection is used.

• Damage to health resulting from hand- arm vibrations if the electric power tool is used over a long period of time, or is incorrectly operated or maintained.

• Warning! These electric power tools produce an electromagnetic eld during operation. Under certain circum- stances, this eld may impair the opera- tion of active or passive medical implants. In order to reduce the danger 7062851-Angle-Grinder-2200W-Ma-1801-15.indb 8 26-03-18 10:559 English of serious or fatal injuries, we recom- mend that persons with medical implants consult their doctor and the manufacturer of the medical implant before operating the electric power tool.
