Immediately switch off the machine in case of
considerable vibrations or if other malfunctions occur.
Check the machine in order to find the cause.
Always use and store the grinding disks according to
the manufacturer’s instructions.
When grinding metal, flying sparks are produced. Take
care that no persons are endangered. Because of the
danger of fire, no combustible materials should be
located in the vicinity (spark flight zone). Do not use
dust extraction machine.
Due care should be taken that no sparks or sanding
dust flying from the workpiece come into contact with
you.
When separating stone the guide shoe must be used!
The adjusting nut must be tightened before starting to
work with the machine.
The workpiece must be fixed if it is not heavy enough
to be steady. Never lead the workpiece to the grinding
disk with your hand.
Under extreme conditions (e.g., smooth-grinding
metals with the arbour and vulcanized fibre grinding
wheel), significant contamination can build up on the
inside of the angle grinder. For safety reasons in such
conditions, the inside should be cleaned thoroughly
of metal deposits and a motor circuitbreaker must be
connected in series. If the motor circuit-breaker trips,
the machine must be sent for repair.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still
impossible to completely eliminate certain residual
risk factors. The following hazards may arise and the
operator should pay special attention to avoid the
following:
Injury caused by thrown-off particles
Metal or abrasive particles may enter the eyes and
cause severe permanent damage. Wear goggles
approved for grinding operations whenever you use
the product.
Injury caused by vibration
Limit exposure.
Injury caused by dust
Wear appropriate dust control mask with filters suitable
for protecting against particles from the material being
worked on and abrasive particles from the grinding
disc. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the work area.
Ensure adequate ventilation.
Injury from contact with the grinding disc
The disc and workpiece will become hot during
use. Wear gloves when changing discs or touching
workpiece. Keep hands away from the grinding area at
all times. Clamp the workpiece whenever possible.
Injury caused by noise
Prolonged exposure to noise will increase the risk of
hearing damage, and the effects are cumulative. When
using power tools for any extended period of time,
wear hearing protection.
