ty instructions and the Operating Instructions.

4.2 Safety instructions for all work
activities
a) This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, sander, wire brush, or cut-off tool.
Read all safety warnings, instructions, il-
lustrations and specifi cations provided with
this power tool. Failure to follow all instruc-
tions listed below may result in electric shock,
fi re and/or serious injury.
b) Operations as polishing are not recom-
mended 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 spe-
cifi cally 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 run-
ning faster than their rated speed can break and
fl y 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) The arbour size of wheels, fl anges, backing
pads or any other accessory must properly
fi t the spindle of the power tool. Accessories
with arbour holes that do not match the mount-
ing 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 wheels for chips and cracks, back-
ing 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 acces-
sory. After inspecting and installing an ac-
cessory, position yourself and bystanders
away from the plane of the rotating acces-
sory and run the power tool at maximum
no-load speed for one minute. Damaged ac-
cessories will normally break apart during this
test time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment. De-
pending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. As appro-
priate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors,
gloves and shop apron capable of stopping
small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The
eye protection must be capable of stopping fl y-
ing debris generated by various operations. The
dust mask or respirator must be capable of fi l-
trating 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 acces-
sory may fl y away and cause injury beyond im-
mediate area of operation.
j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting acces-
sory 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 ac-
cessory. 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 spin-
ning 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 pow-
dered metal may cause electrical hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near fl am-
mable materials. Sparks could ignite these
materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
