4) Special Safety Instructions

4.1 Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding 

and Polishing Operations:

a) 

This power tool is generally to function as a polis-

her and sander. Especially also as a drive unit for the 

Eisenblätter polishing-, cleaning and FIX system. Read 

all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and speci-

fications provided with this power tool. 

Failure to follow 

all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, 

fire and/or serious injury.

b) 

This electric power tool is not suitable for grinding, 

wire brushing and cutting-off operations.

 Operations 

for which the power tool was not designed may create a 

hazard and cause personal injury. 

c) 

Do not use accessories which are not specifically 

designed and recommended 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 maximum speed marked on the power 

tool.

 Accessories running faster than their rated speed 

can break and fly apart.

e) 

The outside diameter and the thickness of your 

accessory must be within the capacity rating of your 

power tool.

 Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be ade-

quately guarded or controlled.

f) 

Treaded mounting of accessories must match the 

grinder spindle thread. For accessories mounted by 

flanges, the arbour hole of the accessory must fit the 

locating diameter of the flange. 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 a power 

tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or 

install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and 

installing an accessory, position yourself and bystan-

ders 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.

h) 

Wear personal protective equipment.

Depending on application, use face shield, safety gog-

gles 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 operations. The dust mask or respi-

rator must be capable of filtrating 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 per-

sonal protective equipment. 

Fragments of workpiece or 

of a broken tool may fly away and cause injury beyond 

immediate area of operation.

j) 

Hold power tool with insulated gripping surfaces 

only, when performing an operation where the cutting 

tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. 

Cutting 

tool contacting a „live“ wire may make exposed metal 

parts of the power tool „live“ and shock the operator.

k) 

Position the cord clear of the spinning tool.

If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and 

your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning tool.

I) 

Never lay the power tool down until the tool has 

come to a complete stop.

 The spinning tool may grab 

the surface and pull the power tool out of your control.

m) 

Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your 

side.

 Accidental contact with the spinning tool could 

snag your clothing, pulling the tool 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 flammable mate-

rials. 

Sparks could ignite these materials.

p) 

Do not use tools that require liquid coolants.

 Using 

water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution 

or shock.
