General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING

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.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified 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 unplugging 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. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Safety Rules for Corded Angle Grinders

1. Safety warnings common for grinding, sanding, wire brushing, polishing or cutting-off operations

a. This power tool is intended to function as a grinder, sander, wire brush, polisher, or cut-off tool. 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 hole cutting 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 convert this power tool to operate in a way which is not specifically designed and specified by the tool manufacturer. Such a conversion may result in a loss of control and cause serious personal injury.
d. Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed and specified by the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
e. 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.
f. 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.
g. The dimensions of the accessory mounting must fit the dimensions of the mounting hardware of the power tool. 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.
h. 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 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.

i. 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 applications. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by the particular application. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
j. 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.
k. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
l. 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.
m. 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.
n. 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.
o. 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 5

Safety Rules for Corded Angle Grinders

p. Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
q. Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

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 with both hands on the power tool and position your body and arms to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always use 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.

6 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

e. Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade, segmented diamond wheel with a peripheral gap greater than 10 mm (13/32") or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.

3. Safety warnings specific for grinding and cutting-off operations

a. Use only wheel types that are specified for your power tool and the specific guard designed for the selected wheel. Wheels for which the power tool was not designed cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe.
b. The grinding surface of center 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 cannot be adequately protected.
c. The guard must be securely attached to the power tool and positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards the operator. The guard helps to protect the operator from broken wheel fragments, accidental contact with wheel and sparks that could ignite clothing.
d. Wheels must be used only for specified applications. For example: do not grind with the side of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
e. Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct size and shape for your selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from grinding wheel flanges.
f. Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools. A wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
g. When using dual purpose wheels always use the correct guard for the application being performed. Failure to use the correct guard may not provide the desired level of guarding, which could lead to serious injury.

Safety Rules for Corded Angle Grinders

4. Additional safety warnings specific for cutting-off operations

a. Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
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 possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
c. When the wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and hold it motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cutoff 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 kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
e. Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces 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.
g. Do not attempt to do curved cutting. Over-stressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage, which can lead to serious injury.

5. Safety warnings specific for sanding operations

a. Use proper sized sanding disc paper. Follow manufacturers recommendations, when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending too far beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.

6. Safety warnings specific for polishing operations

a. Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet or its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any loose attachment strings. Loose and spinning attachment strings can entangle your fingers or snag on the workpiece.

7. Safety warnings specific for wire brushing operations

a. Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even during ordinary operation. Do not overstress the wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
b. If the use of a guard is specified for wire brushing, do not allow any interference of the wire wheel or brush with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in diameter due to work load and centrifugal forces.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 7

Additional Safety Warnings

WARNING Use either Type A (Type 1A/41) cut-off or Type C (combination) WHEEL GUARD, when using dual purpose (combined grinding and cutting-off abrasive) flange mounted wheels.

Operation

Metal Grinding

(Fig. 14)

WARNING 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.

Grinding wheels should be carefully selected in order to use the grinder most efficiently. Wheels vary in type of abrasive, bond, hardness, grit size and structure. The correct wheel to use is determined by the job. Use disc grinding wheels for fast grinding of structural steel, heavy weld beads, steel casting, stainless steel and other ferrous metals.

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the tool to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest when the tool operates at high speed.
3. Maintain a 10^ to 15^ angle between the tool and work surface, (Fig. 14).

Fig. 14 15°

1. Continuously move the tool at a moderate speed to avoid creating gouges in the work surface.
2. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

Tip: When grinding with a new wheel be certain to grind while pulling tool backwards until the wheel becomes rounded on its edge. New wheels have sharp edges which tend to "bite" or cut into the work piece when pushed forward.

Metal Cutting

(Fig. 15)

WARNING Always use Type A (1A/41) cutting wheel guard for cut-

ting. Cutting with a Type B (27) wheel guard may not provide the operator sufficient protection in the event of a wheel burst.

With this grinder it is possible to perform cutting of limited small stock such as metal tubes, piping or rebar. When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to the material being cut. When cutting profiles and square bar, it is best to start at the smallest cross section.

Always follow precautions for kickback.

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the work surface.
2. The tool should always be used in such way that the sparks are directed away from user.
3. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the tool to operate at high speed. Cutting rate is greatest when the tool operates at high speed.
4. Do not exert side pressure onto the cutting disc. Do not tilt or oscillate the tool as wheel may burst, (Fig. 15).
5. Remove the tool from the work surface before turning the tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

Operation

Masonry / Concrete Cutting

(Fig. 16, Fig. 17)

WARNING

When cutting never pull the tool backward since blade will climb out of the material and KICKBACK will occur.

With this grinder it is possible to perform cutting of concrete and masonry materials. When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to the material being cut.

Always follow precautions for kickback.

Operate the tool with a dust extraction system and personal dust protection, e.g. respirator, dust mask, etc. The vacuum used for this application must be approved for the extraction of masonry and concrete dust. Bosch sells suitable vacuum cleaners.

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the work surface.
2. If plunge cutting:

a. Tilt tool forward with wheel lined up with the cut line and hold the tool by the grinder body and the auxiliary handle (Fig. 16).
b. Gradually lower the rear of tool using the front end of the foot as the hinge point.
c. When the foot rests flat on the surface being cut, proceed cutting in forward direction to end of cut.

1. Always maintain contact between the guard foot and work piece.
2. Slide the tool forward at a moderate speed adapted to the material being cut. Always cut towards the dust extraction port to maximize dust extraction and reduce likelihood of kickback (Fig. 17).
3. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the tool to operate at high speed. Cutting rate is greatest when the tool operates at high speed.
4. When the cut is completed, remove tool from work piece before turning off. Allow wheel to stop rotating before setting tool down.

Tip: When performing deep cuts, it is best to cut in several shallow passes. Each pass should be only to the segment depth of the wheel. Masonry dust is abrasive and may wear and weaken the segment bond.

When cutting especially hard material, e. g., concrete with large aggregate content, the dry diamond wheel can overheat and become damaged. This is clearly indicated by circular sparking of the rotating dry diamond wheel. In this case, interrupt the cutting process and allow the dry diamond wheel to cool by running the tool for a short period of time at the maximum speed with no-load.

Noticeable decreasing work progress and circular sparking are indications of a dry diamond wheel that has become dull. Briefly cutting into abrasive materials (e. g. brick) can resharpen the wheel.

Operation

Sanding

(Fig. 18)

Sanding discs range in grit from 16 (very coarse) to 180 (very fine). They also vary in size and spacing of grit.

Open coat (Type H) is used for soft materials and on paint and varnish. Closed coat (Type K) is used for metal, hardwood, stone, marble and other materials. To obtain best results, select sanding discs carefully. Many jobs require the use of several grit sizes and at times both open coat and closed coat discs are required to complete the job. See chart for application examples.

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the tool to operate at high speed. Sanding rate is greatest when the tool operates at high speed.
3. Maintain a 10^ to 15^ angle between the tool and work surface, (Fig. 18).

Fig. 18

1. Continuously move the tool at a moderate speed to avoid creating gouges in the work surface.
2. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

Tip: Guide the disc with crisscross strokes. Do not use a circular motion as this makes swirl marks.

Operation: Refinishing painted wood or metal surfaces.

Operation

Polishing Metal and Concrete

WARNING

Do not use angle grinder for polishing painted surfaces

or plastics. Using angle grinders for such applications may damage materials and surfaces.

Angle grinders may be used for some polishing operations such as creating smooth surfaces on metal, concrete, or stone. Polishing these materials requires certain skill and involves selection of proper accessories and grinder setting. All polishing operations begin with grinding to remove imperfections such as welds or burrs on metal, leveling uneven concrete areas, or making cuts in stone such as marble. Next step is to remove tool markings using backing pad with proper grit sanding disc, or polishing stones mounted on a Type 27 fiber/epoxy backing wheel, like a flap wheel having typical grit between 200-600.

To create final smooth finish, a fine sanding disc or polishing stone having 1600 grit should be used. For best polishing results, grinder with variable speed is recommended and the speed should be set to approximately 4000 RPM. If available, felt wheel for angle grinders and polishing compound may also be used. When using a grinder without the variable speed adjustment, surface being worked on should be monitored carefully to avoid overheating due to friction.

Wire Brush (Wheels and Cups)

Wire brushes are intended to "clean" structural steel, castings, sheet metal, stone, and concrete. They are used to remove rust, scale, and paint.

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool to the work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the tool to operate at high speed.

3. Continuously move the tool at a moderate speed to avoid creating gouges in the work surface.

4. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

Tip: The tips of the brush do the work. Operate wire brushes with the lightest pressure so only the tips of the wire come in contact with the work piece. If heavier pressures are used, the wires will be overstressed, resulting in a wiping action and a shortened brush life due to wire fatigue. Applying the side or edge of the brush to the work piece will result in wire breakage and shortened brush life.
