• Only use grinding discs that are recommended
by the manufacturer. Only use guards that are
specifically designed for the grinding disc.
• Only use grinding discs that are suitable for the
application. For example: do not grind with the
side of a cut-off disc.
• Do not use the machine without the guard.
Securely mount the guard for maximum safety.
Make sure that the user is protected from the
grinding disc as much as possible.
• Make sure that the workpiece is properly
supported or fixed.
• Wear safety goggles. Wear hearing protection.
Wear a dust mask. If necessary, use other
protective means, such as safety gloves,
safety shoes, etc. Risk of personal injury.
• Keep bystanders away from the work area.
Make sure that all persons in the work area
wear protective equipment. Risk of personal
injury.
• Keep the mains cable away from the rotating
grinding disc. If the mains cable touches the
rotating grinding disc, your hands or arms may
come in contact with the grinding disc.
Risk of personal injury.
• Hold the machine by the insulated gripping
surfaces where the grinding disc may
contact hidden wiring or the mains cable. If
the grinding disc contacts a 'live' wire, the
exposed metal parts of the machine can also
become 'live'. Risk of electric shock.
• Do not use the machine while carrying it at
your side. Risk of personal injury.
• Do not use the machine on workpieces
requiring a maximum grinding depth that
exceeds the maximum grinding depth of the
grinding disc.
• Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Risk of electric shock.
• Do not use the machine near flammable
materials. Risk of fire.
• Do not work materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.
• Do not work metal with a magnesium content
of more than 80%.
• Beware that the grinding disc continues to
rotate for a short period after switching off the
machine. Do not attempt to bring the grinding
disc to a standstill yourself.
• Never put the machine down on a table or a
workbench before it has been switched off.

• Regularly clean the ventilation slots.
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched,
bound or twisted grinding disc, which causes
the machine to lift up and out of the workpiece
towards the user. If the grinding disc is pinched
or bound tightly by the cut, the grinding disc jams
and the machine is rapidly driven back towards
the user. If the grinding disc is twisted in the cut,
the back edge of the grinding disc can dig into
the top surface of the workpiece, which causes
the grinding disc to climb out of the cut and jump
back towards the user.
Kickback is the result of incorrect use of the
machine and/or incorrect operating procedures
or conditions. Kickback can be avoided by taking
proper precautions:
• Firmly hold the machine with both hands.
• Be extra careful when using the machine on
• If the grinding disc jams or if you interrupt a
• Do not use blunt or damaged grinding discs.
• Do not use toothed saw blades. Do not use
Risk of electric shock.
Position your arms to resist kickback forces.
Position your body to either side of the
grinding disc, but not in line with the grinding
disc. Kickback can cause the grinding disc
to jump backwards. If proper precautions are
taken, kickback forces can be controlled by
the user.
corners, sharp edges, etc. Make sure that the
grinding disc does not become jammed.
Risk of kickback.
cut for any reason, release the on/off switch
and hold the machine motionless in the
material until the grinding disc comes to a
complete standstill. Never attempt to remove
the machine from the workpiece or pull the
machine backward while the grinding disc is in
motion. Risk of kickback.
Unsharpened or incorrectly mounted grinding
discs produce narrow cuts, which causes
excessive friction and kickback and increases
the risk of the grinding discs becoming
jammed.
woodcarving blades for saw chains.
Risk of personal injury.
