also make metal parts of the appliance
live and could result in an electric
shock.
• Always hold the power tool firmly. When
running up to full speed, the torque of
the motor can cause the power tool to
twist.
• If possible, use clamps to hold the
workpiece in position. Never hold a
small workpiece in one hand and the
power tool in the other while you are
using it. By clamping small workpieces,
you keep both hands free for better
control of the power tool. When cutting
round workpieces such as dowels, rods
or pipes, be aware that these can roll
away and this can cause the tool to jam
and be thrown towards you.
• Never put the power tool down until the
accessory tool has come to a complete
standstill. The rotating accessory tool
can come into contact with the surface
and cause you to lose control of the
power tool.
• When changing accessory tools or
changing settings, tighten the chuck,
the chuck or other fixing elements
tightly. Loose fastening elements can
shift unexpectedly and lead to loss of
control; unsecured, rotating compo-
nents will fly off violently.
• Do not leave the power tool running
whilst carrying it. Accidental contact
between you clothing and the rotating
accessory tool could lead to physical
injury.
• Clean the ventilation slits of your power
tool regularly. The engine fan draws
dust into the housing and a strong
accumulation of metal dust can cause
electrical hazards.
• Do not use the power tool in the vicinity
of flammable materials. Sparks can
ignite such materials.
• Do not use any accessory tools which
require liquid coolant. The use of water
or other liquid coolants may lead to
electric shock.

3. Kickback and corresponding
safety instructions
Kickback is a sudden reaction caused when
a rotating accessory tool, e.g. grinding disc,
grinding band, wire brush, etc., catches or
jams and leads to an abrupt stop of the
rotating accessory tool. If this happens, an
uncontrolled power tool will turn rapidly
against the direction of rotation of the
accessory tool.
If, for example, a grinding disc catches or
jams, the edge of the grinding disc that is
projecting into the workpiece can get
caught and break off the grinding disc or
cause a kickback. The grinding disc can
then fly in the direction of the operator or
away from him, depending on the direction
of rotation of the disc at the blockage. This
can also break grinding discs. A kickback is
caused by improper or incorrect use of the
power tool. This can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as described below.
WARNING! During the use of tools supplied
with batteries, the basic safety measures
must be followed in order to reduce fire
hazards, electrolyte leakage and personal
injury, including the following precautions:
• Ensure that the battery block is suitable
for the tool.
• Ensure that outside surface of the bat-
tery block is clean and dry before con-
necting it to the charger.
• Ensure that the batteries are charged
using the correct charger recom-
mended by the manufacturer. Incorrect
use can create a risk of electric shock,
overheating or the leaking of corrosive
liquid from the battery.
• If there is an electrolyte leak, avoid any
contact with the skin. In the event of a
leak, wipe with a rag. If the liquid comes
into contact with the skin, rinse abun-
dantly with water. In the event of a reac-
tion or contact with the eyes or mucous
membranes, consult a doctor.
• Ensure that the appliance is properly
switched off before inserting the bat-
tery into the appliance. Inserting a bat-
tery into a appliance while it is switched
on can cause accidents.
