Fitting the Abrasive Tools (see figure A)
Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
moved for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
Only use open-ended spanners that are suitable and
u
undamaged (see "Technical Data").
– Clean the grinding spindle (3) and all the parts to be fit-
ted.
– Use an open-ended spanner (10) on the spanner flat of
the grinder spindle (3) to hold it in place.
Loosen the clamping nut (2) by placing an open-ended
spanner (11) on the spanner flat and turning it counter-
clockwise.
– Insert the straight shank of the grinding tool all the way
into the collet (1).
– Hold the grinding spindle (3) with the open-ended span-
ner (10) and tighten the application tool by placing the
open-ended spanner (11) on the spanner flat and turning
it clockwise.
The grinding tools must run completely concentrically. Do
not continue to use damaged grinding tools that are out of
balance. If the grinding tools are out of balance, they should
be replaced.
Do not, under any circumstances, tighten the collet
u
with the clamping nut until a grinding tool has been
fitted. The collet may otherwise become damaged.
Only use mounted points with an appropriate shank
u
diameter. A mounting point with a shank diameter which
does not correspond to the tool holder of the power tool
(see "Technical data") cannot be held properly and will
damage the collet chuck.
The application tool must be clamped at least 10 mm.

Dust/Chip Extraction

Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some
wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one's
health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause allergic
reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or
bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered carci-
nogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment ad-
ditives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing
asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the ma-
terials to be worked.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
u
easily ignite.
