Do not use worn, torn or heavily clogged grinding belts.
Handle grinding belts carefully and store them accord-
ing to the manufacturer's instructions. Do not bend or
fold grinding belts! Damaged grinding belts can tear, be
flung away and injure someone.
Secure the work piece firmly. A work piece that is
gripped tightly in a clamping device or vice, is more
secure than if held by hand.
Hold the power tool firmly. High reaction torque can
briefly occur.
Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or signs onto the
power tool. If the insulation is damaged, protection
against an electric shock will be ineffective.
Do not use accessories which are not specifically
designed and recommended by the power tool manu-
facturer. Safe operation is not ensured merely because
an accessory fits your power tool.
Clean the ventilation openings on the power tool at reg-
ular intervals using non-metal tools. The blower of the
motor draws dust into the housing. An excessive accu-
mulation of metallic dust can cause an electrical hazard.
Further safety warnings
Do not direct the power tool against yourself, other per-
sons or animals. Danger of injury from sharp grinding
belts.
Never lay the power tool down until the grinding belt
has come to a complete stop. The grinding belt can
come into contact with the surface, causing you to lose
control over the power tool.
Never touch the running grinding belt. Danger of injury.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces, such as
from pipes, heaters, stoves and refrigerators. There is
an increased risk of electric shock when your body has
contact to grounded surfaces. Under certain condi-
tions, components of the machine can become electro-
statically charged.
The surface being worked can become very hot. Do not
touch it with your hands.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on
application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. Where appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing
protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stop-
ping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye
protection must be capable of stopping flying debris
generated by various operations. The dust mask or res-
pirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high inten-
sity noise may cause hearing loss.
Warning! Danger of fire and explosion! When grinding
metals (e.g., aluminium or magnesium), dust develops
that may be combustible or explosive. Do not operate
the machine near flammable materials. Sparks could
cause these materials to ignite.
Pay attention that other persons are not put at risk from
sparking. Remove flammable materials in close vicinity.
Sparking occurs when grinding metal.
Use a stationary extraction system and frequently blow
out the ventilation slots. When working metal under
extreme operating conditions, it is possible for conduc-
tive dust to settle in the interior of the power tool. The
total insulation of the power tool can be impaired.
Always use the protective devices attached on the
machine. The protective devices must be securely
mounted to the machine in order to achieve maximum
safety. The protective devices are supposed to protect
the user from grinding particles thrown from the
machine and from accidental contact with the grinding
belt.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area.
Anyone entering the work area must wear personal pro-
tective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a bro-
ken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
Keep the power cord away from the grinding belt.
When losing control over the machine, the power cord
can be cut through or get caught, and your hand or arm
can come in contact with the grinding belt.
Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side.
Your clothing may get caught through accidental con-
tact with the grinding belt and cause injuries.
Make sure that the grinding belt is mounted in accord-
ance with the manufacturers instructions. Mounted
grinding belts must be able to rotate freely. Incorrectly
mounted grinding belts can become loose during oper-
ation and be thrown from the machine.
Do not operate the power tool with wet or moist hands.
Before putting into operation, check the mains connec-
tion and the mains plug for damage.
Recommendation: The tool should always be supplied
with power via a residual current device (RCD) with a
rated current of 30 mA or less.
Handling hazardous dusts
For work procedures with this power tool where
material is removed, dusts develop that can be hazard-
ous to one's health.
Contact with or inhaling some dust types, e. g. asbestos
and asbestos-containing materials, lead-containing coat-
ings, metal, some wood types, minerals, silicate parti-
cles from materials containing stone, paint solvents,
wood preservatives, antifouling paints for vessels, can
trigger allergic reactions to the operator or bystanders
and/or lead to respiratory infections, cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. The risk from
inhaling dusts depends on the exposition. Use dust
extraction matched appropriately for the developing
dust, as well as personal protective equipment and pro-
vide for good ventilation of the workplace. Leave the
processing of asbestos-containing materials to special-
ists.
Wood and light-metal dust, hot mixtures of grinding
dust and chemical materials can self-ignite under unfa-
vourable conditions or cause an explosion. Avoid
sparking in the direction of the dust collector as well as
overheating of the power tool and the materials being
sanded, empty the dust collector/container in time,
