g) If devices are provided for the connec-
tion of dust extraction and collection fa-
cilities, ensure these are connected and
properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was de-
signed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be re-
paired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar with the power tool or these in-
structions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool's op-
eration. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and
are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these in-
structions, taking into account the work-
ing conditions and the work to be per-
formed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.

5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qual-
ified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety Warnings for Straight Grinders
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Wire
Brushing, Polishing or Carving:
This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, carving tool, polisher (GGS 8 CE)
or wire brush (GGS 8 CE). Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Do not use accessories which are not spe-
cifically designed and recommended by the
tool manufacturer. Just because the acces-
sory can be attached to your power tool, it
does not assure safe operation.
The rated speed of the accessory must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked
on the power tool. Accessories running fast-
er than their rated speed can break and fly
apart.
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 controlled.
The arbour size of wheels, sanding drum or
any other accessory must properly fit the
spindle or collet of the power tool. Accesso-
ries that do not match the mounting hard-
ware of the power tool will run out of bal-
ance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss
of control.
Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding drums,
cutters or other accessories must be fully
inserted into the collet or chuck. The "over-
hang" or the length of the mandrel from the
wheel to the collet must be minimal. If the
mandrel is insufficiently held and/or the
overhang of the wheel is too long, the mount-
ed wheel may become loose and ejected at
high velocity.
