During Use; After Use; Maintenance / Service - Skil 9455 Manual De Instrucciones

DURING USE

• Inrush currents cause short-time voltage drops; under
unfavourable power supply conditions, other equipment
may be affected (if the system impedance of the power
supply is lower than 0,25 Ohm, disturbances are unlikely
to occur); if you need further clarification, you may
contact your local power supply authority
• If the cord is damaged or cut through while working, do
not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the plug
• Never use the tool when cord is damaged; have it
replaced by a qualified person
• In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction,
immediately switch off the tool and disconnect the plug
• In case of current interruption or when the plug is
accidentally pulled out, unlock the on/off switch H 2
immediately in order to prevent uncontrolled restarting

AFTER USE

• After switching off the tool, never stop the rotation of the
accessory by a lateral force applied against it
USE
• Mounting of accessories 2
! disconnect the plug
- clean spindle A and all parts to be mounted
- tighten clamping flange B with spanner C while
pushing spindle-lock button D
! push spindle-lock button D only when spindle A
is at a standstill
- for removing accessories handle vice-versa
! grinding/cutting discs become very hot during use;
do not touch them until they have cooled down
! always mount backing pad when using
sanding accessories
! never use a grinding/cutting disc without the
label ("blotter") which is glued onto it
• Mounting of auxiliary handle E 6
! disconnect the plug
• Removing/mounting of protective guard F 7
! disconnect the plug
! ensure that the closed side of the protective
guard always points to the operator
- if necessary, adjust protective guard F by tightening
screw X which is pre-set at manufacturing (ensure
that the protective guard is closed)
• Before using the tool
- ensure that accessory is correctly mounted and
firmly tightened
- check if accessory runs freely by turning it by hand
- test-run tool for at least 30 seconds at highest no-load
speed in a safe position
- stop immediately in case of considerable vibration or
other defects and check tool to determine the cause
• On/off locking switch H 8
- switch on tool 8a
! be aware of the sudden impact when the tool is
switched on
! before the accessory reaches the workpiece,
the tool should run at full speed
- lock switch 8b
- unlock switch/switch off tool 8c
SKIL_IB9455_BR.indd 21
! before switching off the tool, you should lift it
from the workpiece
! the accessory continues to rotate for a short time
after the tool has been switched off
• Grinding 9
- move the tool back and forth with moderate pressure
! never use a cutting disc for side grinding
• Cutting 0
- do not tilt the tool while cutting
- always move the tool in same direction as arrow on
tool head, in order to prevent the tool from being
pushed out of the cut in an uncontrolled manner
- do not apply pressure on the tool; let the speed of the
cutting disc do the work
- the working speed of the cutting disc depends on the
material to be cut
- do not brake cutting discs with side pressure
• Holding and guiding the tool
- always hold the tool firmly with both hands, so you will
have full control of the tool at all times
! while working, always hold the tool at the
grey-coloured grip area(s) !
- provide for a secure stance
- pay attention to the direction of rotation; always hold
the tool so, that sparks and grinding/cutting dust fly
away from the body
- keep ventilation slots J 2 uncovered

MAINTENANCE / SERVICE

• Always keep tool and cord clean (especially the
ventilation slots J 2)
! do not attempt to clean ventilation slots by
inserting pointed objects through openings
! disconnect the plug before cleaning
• If the tool should fail despite the care taken in manufacturing
and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by an
after-sales service centre for SKIL power tools
