NOTE
Adjust the position of the guard to suit the require-
ments of the work being done.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
CAUTION
The closed side of the guard must always face the
operator.
WARNING
Test new cutting or grinding discs by allowing them
to run at maximum speed in a protected area for at
least 30 seconds.
WARNING
Slits cut in loadbearing walls of buildings or other
structures may influence the statics of the structure,
especially when steel reinforcing bars or load-bearing
components are cut through. Consult the structural
engineer, architect, or person in charge of the
building project before beginning the work.
WARNING
The electric supply voltage must comply with the
information given on the type identification plate
on the power tool.
WARNING
Always use the side handle with the power tool.
CAUTION
Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece securely.
WARNING
Cutting or grinding may cause splintering of the
material. Wear eye protection.
CAUTION
Breathing protection must be worn if the power tool
is used without a dust removal system for work that
creates dust.

WARNING
Avoid touching rotating parts. Switch the power tool
on only after bringing it into position at the work-
piece. Touching rotating parts, especially rotating
insert tools, may lead to injury.
CAUTION
The insert tool may get hot during use. Wear protec-
tive gloves when changing insert tools.
WARNING
Reduce the load on the power tool by avoiding
tilting the disc in the kerf when cutting. The disc
may otherwise break, or the power tool may kick back
or stall.
CAUTION
Improve the blood circulation in your fingers by
relaxing your hands and exercising your fingers
during breaks between working.
WARNING
Keep inflammable materials away from the working
area.
