get caught and the attachment tool
could drill into your body.
• Clean the ventilation slots of your
electric tool routinely. The motor air
pulls dust into the housing and, should
too much metallic dust collect, could
cause electrical hazards.
• Never use the electric tool near
flammable material. Sparks could ig-
nite this material.
• Do not use attachment tools which
require liquid coolant. Using water
or another liquid coolant could lead to
electrical shock.
Additional safety instructions
• Only use grinding discs where the
indicated rotational speed is at least
as high as what has been specified on
the name plate of the device.
• Carry out a visual inspection of the
grinding disc before use. Do not use
any damaged or deformed grinding
discs. Replace any damaged or worn
grinding discs.
• Make sure that the sparks produced
by grinding do not present a danger,
e.g. reach people or ignite flammable
substances.
• Always wear safety goggles, safety
gloves, respiratory protection and ear
protection when grinding, brushing
and cutting.
• Never keep the fingers between the
grinding disc and spark protection or
in close proximity to the protective
hoods. There is a risk of crushing.
• The rotating parts of the device cannot
be covered due to functional reasons.
Therefore, proceed cautiously and
hold the workpiece firmly in order to
avoid slipping which could cause your
hands to come into contact with the
grinding disc.

like.
• If you are tired or have consumed al-
cohol or tablets, do not work with the
device. Always have a break on time.
• Turn off the appliance and, before do-
ing any servicing, remove the battery.
