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 accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety 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 accessories.

Check for

misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage 

of parts and any other condition that may affect the 

power tools 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. 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.

ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL OPERATIONS

Safety warnings common for grinding and Cutting-off 

Operations.

a. This power tool is intended to function as a

grinder 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 sanding, wire brushing,

polishing 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 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 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 work shop 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 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

personal protective equipment. 

Fragments of

workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and 

cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.

j. 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 shock the operator.

k. 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.

l. 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.

m.  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.

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
