 Do not use any damaged insertion tools.
Before use, always check insertion tools
for splinters and cracks, sanding pad for
cracks, wear and severe abrasion. If the
electric power tool or the insertion tool is
dropped, check for damage or use an
undamaged insertion tool. When you have
checked and inserted the tool, ensure that
you and anybody in the vicinity remain
outside the plane of the rotating insertion
tool and leave the power tool running for
one minute at maximum speed.
Damaged insertion tools usually break during
this test time.
 Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on the application, wear full
face protection, eye protection or goggles.
If appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing
protection, protective gloves and/or
a special apron which protect you from
small sanding and material particles.
You should protect your eyes from foreign
objects which are ejected for different
applications. Dust and respirator masks must
filter the dust which is generated by the power
tool for the particular application. If you are
exposed to loud noise for a prolonged period,
you may suffer hearing loss.
 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
accidental 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.
 Never use insertion tools which require
liquid coolants.
The use of water or other liquid coolants
may result in electric shock.
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.
For example, if a sanding disc is snagged or
pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the
sanding disc which is entering the workpiece
may become caught and cause the sanding
disc to break off or kick back. The sanding disc
then moves towards or away from the operator,
depending on the direction in which the disc is
rotating at the point of pinching. Sanding discs
may also break under these conditions.
A recoil occurs if the electric power tool is used
incorrectly or improperly. A recoil can be
prevented by appropriate precautions as
described below.
