ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
Safety Instructions for All Operations

a ) 

This power tool is intended to function as a polisher. 
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, sanding, wire brushing 
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 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 

adequately guarded or controlled.

f ) 

Threaded mounting of accessories must match the 
grinder spindle thread. For accessories mounted by 
flanges, the arbor 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 wheel 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.

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 fragments.

The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying 
debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or 
respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated 

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 accessories. 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 the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. 
in accordance with these instructions, taking 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.

5)  Battery Tool Use and Care

a ) 

Recharge only with the charger specified by the 
manufacturer.

 A charger that is suitable for one type 

of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with 
another battery pack.

b ) 

Use power tools only with specifically designated 
battery packs.

 Use of any other battery packs may create 

a risk of injury and fire.

c ) 

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from 
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, 
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can 
make a connection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns 
or a fire.

d ) 

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected 
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact 
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid 
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

 Liquid 

ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

e ) 

Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged 
or modified.

 Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit 

unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk 
of injury.

f ) 

Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or 
excessive temperature.

 Exposure to fire or temperature 

above 130 °C may cause explosion.

g ) 

Follow all charging instructions and do not charge 
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature 
range specified in the instructions. 

Charging 

improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range 
may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire. 

6)  Service

a ) 

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair 
person using only identical replacement parts.

This 

will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

b ) 

Never service damaged battery packs. 

Service 

of battery packs should only be performed by the 
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
