7. Safety instructions

⚠ WARNING - Read all safety information, instructions, illustrations and technical data for 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” used in the safety instructions refers to mains-powered power tools (with a mains cable) and battery-powered power tools (without a mains cable).

Work area safety

a) Keep your 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 of the power tool.

Electrical safety

a) The connection plug of the power tool must fit into the socket. 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.
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 the connection cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts of the device. 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 residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

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.

b) Wear personal protective equipment and always safety goggles. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, safety helmet or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or rechargeable battery, picking up or carrying the power tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting tools or spanners/keys before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Avoid abnormal postures. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust extraction can reduce dust-related hazards.

h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of power tools allow you to become complacent and ignore power tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. 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 and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing tool attachments, or storing power tools. Such precautionary 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 and tool attachments. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents 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 power tools, insertion tools, etc. according to these instructions. Take into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

Service

a) Only have your power tool repaired by qualified specialists and only with original spare parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety instructions for all operations - Safety warnings common for grinding, sanding, wire brushing, polishing or abrasive cutting-off operations

a) This power tool is intended to function as a sander. 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 grinding, wire brushing, polishing, hole-cutting or cutting-off 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 use the power tool for any function for which it is not expressly designed and intended by its manufacturer. Such a modification may result in loss of control and serious personal injury.

d) Do not use a tool attachment that has not been specifically envisaged and determined 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.

e) The maximum speed of the tool attachment used must be at least as high as the maximum speed specified for the power tool. Accessories which rotate faster than the maximum permissible rate can break and throw pieces into the air.

f) The external diameter and thickness of the tool attachment used must comply with the dimensions of the power tool. Incorrectly dimensioned tool attachments cannot be sufficiently shielded or controlled.

g) The dimensions for fastening the tool attachment must match the dimensions of the fasteners of the power tool. Tool attachments which are not precisely attached to the power tool rotate unevenly, vibrate very strongly and can cause a loss of control.

h) Never use damaged tool attachments. Before each use inspect the tool attachment such as grinding discs for chips and cracks, grinding wheel for cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If the power tool or the tool attachment in use is dropped, check to see if it is damaged or use an undamaged accessory tool. When you have checked and inserted the tool attachment, ensure that you and any other people in the vicinity remain outside of the level of the rotating attachment and allow the tool to rotate at maximum speed for one minute. Damaged tool attachments usually break during this test period.

i) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. Where appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing protection, protective gloves or a special apron that will keep small grinding and material particles away from you.

The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various operations. Dust or breathing masks must filter the dust generated during use. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.

j) Ensure that other people remain at a safe distance from your workspace. Anyone who enters the workspace must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a broken tool attachment may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.

k) When performing work during which the tool attachment can meet with concealed power lines or its own mains cable, only hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces. Contact with a live wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool live and could give the operator an electric shock.

I) Keep the power cord away from any rotating tool attachments. If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning tool attachment.

m) Never put the power tool down until the tool attachment being used has come to a complete standstill. The rotating tool attachment can come into contact with the surface and cause you to lose control of the power tool.

n) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact of your clothing with the rotating tool attachment could lead to an injury.

o) Clean the ventilation slits of your power tool regularly. The engine fan draws dust into the housing and a strong accumulation of metal dust can cause electrical hazards.

p) Never use the power tool in the vicinity of inflammable materials. Sparks can ignite such materials.

q) Do not use any tool attachments which require liquid coolant. The use of water or other liquid coolants may lead to an electric shock.

Safety instructions for all applications Kick-back and corresponding safety instructions Kick-back is the sudden reaction resulting from a caught or jammed rotating insert tool, such as a grinding disc, grinding wheel, wire brush, etc. Catching or jamming results in the rotating insert tool stopping abruptly.

As a result, an uncontrolled power tool is accelerated against the direction of rotation of the tool attachment at the blocking point.

For example, if a grinding disc is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the disc that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing the disc to climb out or kick out.

The grinding disc 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 incorrect or deficient use of the power tool.

It can be prevented by suitable precautionary measures, as described in the following.

a) Hold the power tool firmly in both hands and position your body and arms so they can absorb the force of a kickback. Always use the additional handle, if available, so that you have the maximum possible control over the kickback force or reaction forces at full speed. By taking adequate precautions, the operator can stay in control of the kickback and reaction forces.

b) Never hold your hand close to a rotating tool attachment. The tool attachment could jump out of your hand if there is a kickback.

c) Avoid having any part of your body in the region in which the power tool is likely to move in event of a kickback. The kickback will force the power tool in the opposite direction to the direction of rotation of the grinding disc at the blockage.

d) Be particularly careful when working in the area of the corners, sharp edges etc. Prevent insert tools from bouncing against the workpiece and getting caught. The rotating tool attachment tends to jam at corners, sharp edges or when it gets caught. This causes a loss of control or kick-back.

e) Do not use the chainsaw blade to cut wood, a segmented diamond cutting wheel with a segment gap over 10 mm or a toothed saw blade. Such tool attachments frequently cause kick-back and loss of control.

Safety instructions for sandpaper grinding

a) Use sanding sheets of the correct size and follow the manufacturer's instructions for the selection of the sanding sheets. Larger sanding sheets extending beyond the grinding wheel present a laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the sheet or kickback.

Additional safety instructions

a) Connect a vacuum cleaner to the supplied adapter before starting your operations.
b) ATTENTION! Keep away sanding dust from open fire. Dust may be explosive.
c) Always wear safety goggles and a dust protection mask when sanding, in particular during overhead work and when processing critical materials!

When sanding certain materials (e. g. lead paint, certain types of wood and metal) harmful or noxious dust may be generated.

Touching or breathing in such dust may imply risks for the operator or bystanders.

Notes regarding vibration and noise emissions

Keep the noise level and vibration to a minimum!

1. Only use power tools which are free of defects.
2. Maintain and clean the power tool on a regular basis.
3. Adjust your way of working to the power tool.
4. Do not force the power tool.
5. Have your power tool checked if necessary.
6. Switch off the power tool if it is not in use.

Residual risks

Even when this power tool is operated properly, residual risks still remain. The following hazards may arise in connection with the design and construction of this power tool:

a) Damage to health resulting from hand/arm vibration if the device is used over an extended period of time or if it is not properly operated and maintained.
b) Injury and property damage caused by insert tools being flung around and unexpectedly out of/from the power tool due to sudden damage, wear or improper attachment.
c) Burns and cuts if the accessories are touched directly after use and/or with your bare skin.

⚠ WARNING! This power tool generates an electromagnetic field during operation. This field can impair active or passive medical implants under certain circumstances. In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with medical implants consult with their physician and the manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operating the power tool.

8.2 Select sandpaper

1. The grain of the sandpaper is indicated on the back. The smaller the number indicated, the coarser the grain.
2. Use coarse grain sandpaper for rough sanding and fine grain sandpaper for finishing. Sandpapers with aluminium oxide, silicon carbide or other synthetic abrasives are recommended.
3. Start with a coarse grain and finish with the finest grain if you have sandpaper with different grains to choose from to achieve a good, smooth sanding result.

8.3 Attaching and replacing sandpaper

Secure the abrasive mesh sanding disc (13) to the grinding plate (9) with the Velcro backing.

1. Align the abrasive mesh sanding disc (13) with the grinding plate (9) and press it on evenly.
2. Pull the abrasive mesh sanding disc (13) off the grinding plate (9) to replace it with a new/different one (Fig. 5).

8.4 Dust extraction

⚠ Warning!

When working on lead-based paint for example, harmful/toxic gases may be produced. These pose a danger both to the user and to persons in the vicinity!

Therefore, only use this power tool with a dust extraction device and additionally protect yourself and other persons in the working area with suitable personal protective equipment!

A large amount of dust is generated when working with this power tool. Dust extraction is very useful to keep your work area clean. A chip extraction system or a hoo-ver can be connected to the suction hose (11), which is connected to the connection for dust extraction.

1. Align the nub on the end of the hose with the vacuum hose adapter (12) (Fig. 3), insert the end and secure it by turning it to the right (Fig. 7).

2. Connect the vacuum cleaner adapter to a suitable dust extraction device such as a hoover (Fig. 8).

Note: Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is suitable for use with an power tool.

8.5 Brush edge

The grinding head of this electric tool is surrounded by a brush edge (10). This offers two advantages:

• The brush edge (10) protrudes beyond the grinding plate (9) and rests first on the surface to be worked on. As a result, the grinding plate is brought parallel to the working surface before the tool attachment comes into contact with the surface to be sanded. This prevents crescent-shaped indentations caused by the edge of the grinding wheel.
• In addition, the brush edge (10) prevents excessive dust formation. The bristles help to contain the dust produced during grinding enabling it to be disposed of by the suction system.
• Make sure that the brush edge (10) is intact each time before starting work with this power tool. Have it replaced if you notice any damage or wear.

8.6 Connection to the power supply
