Ensure that other persons are situated at a

safe distance from the work area. Anyone
who enters the work area must wear
personal protective equipment. Fragments
of the workpiece or broken insertion tools
may fly off and cause injuries even outside
the direct working area.
If the insertion tool is at risk of coming

into contact with concealed power cables
or the power cord itself, hold the power
tool by the insulated grip surfaces only.
Contact with a live cable may also cause
metal parts of the appliance to become
live and result in an electric shock.
Keep the power cord away from rotating

insertion tools. If you lose control of the
appliance, the power cord could be
severed or become caught and your
hand or arm may strike the rotating
insertion tool.
Never put down the electric power

tool until the insertion tool has come
to a standstill. The rotating insertion tool
may come into contact with the support
surface, possibly resulting in you losing
control of the electric power tool.
Never leave the electric power tool

running while you are carrying it. Your
clothing may become caught by acci-
dental contact with the rotating insertion
tool which may then drill into your body.
Regularly clean the ventilation slots on

your electric power tool. The motor fan
draws dust into the housing; a large
build-up of metal dust may cause
electrical hazards.
Never use the electric power tool near

combustible materials. Sparks may ignite
these materials.
Recoil and appropriate safety
instructions
Kickback is the sudden reaction to a
pinched or snagged rotating insertion tool,
such as a sanding disc, sanding pad, wire
brush, etc. Pinching or snagging may cause
a rotating insertion tool to stop abruptly.
As a result, an uncontrolled electric power
tool is accelerated against the direction of
rotation of the insertion tool at the blocking
point.

Hold the electric power tool firmly and

position your body and arms to allow
you to absorb kickback forces.
If fitted, always use the auxiliary handle
to ensure the best possible control over
the recoil forces or reaction torques when
acceleration occurs. The operator can
control kickback and reaction forces by
taking appropriate precautions.
Keep your hands away from the rotating

insertion tool. The insertion tool may
kickback over your hand.
Keep your body out of the area into which

the electric power tool moves when
a recoil occurs. Kickback propels the
electric power tool in the direction
opposite to the movement of the sanding
disc at the point of pinching.
Work especially carefully near corners,

sharp edges, etc. Prevent the insertion
tool from recoiling off the workpiece
and jamming. The rotating insertion tool
has a tendency to snag on corners,
sharp edges or if it bounces. This causes
a loss of control or kickback.
Do not use a chain or toothed saw blade.

Such insertion tools frequently cause
a kick-back or the loss of control of the
electric power tool.
Avoid blocking the cutting-off wheel

or exerting too high contact pressure.
Do not make excessively deep cuts.
Overloading the cutting-off wheel
increases its stress and the susceptibility
to twisting or blocking and therefore the
possibility of a kickback or the grinding
tool breaking.
If the cutting-off wheel jams or you

interrupt work for any other reason,
switch the electric power tool off and hold
it steady until the wheel has come to a
standstill. Never attempt to pull the still
rotating wheel out of the workpiece,
otherwise a kickback may occur.
Establish and eliminate the cause of the
jam.
