reaction torques or kickbacks if suitable precautionary measures are
taken.
Never place your hands near rotating tools. Tools can kick back
over your hand.
Never position your body in the area in which the machine moves
in the event of a kickback. A kickback accelerates the machine in the
direction of rotation opposed to the disc at the jamming point.
Take extra care when working in corners, on sharp edges, etc.
Avoid kickbacks and prevent the tool from seizing. Corners, sharp
edges or a jump back tend to cause the rotating tool to catch, thus
leading to a loss of control or a kickback.
Special safety instructions for sanding
Use only those sanding tools authorised for use with your electric
power tool and the guard designated for this sanding tool. Sanding
tools, which are not designated for use with the electric power tool,
cannot be adequately shielded and are unsafe.
Sanding tools may be used for the recommended applications
only. For example: Never sand with the side area of a diamond
sanding pad. Diamond sanding pads are designed to remove material
with the underside of the sanding pad. If a lateral force is applied to
these sanding tools, they may shatter.
Always use undamaged clamping flanges in the correct size and
shape for the insertion tool you have selected. Suitable flanges
support the insertion tools and therefore reduce the risk of a break.
Additional warning notes
If potentially explosive or self-igniting dust is produced during
sanding, the processing instructions of the material manufacturer
must be observed under all circumstances.
Harmful/toxic dusts can be produced during your work. Contact
with these dusts, especially inhaling them, can represent a hazard for
operating personnel or persons in the vicinity. Comply with the safety
regulations that apply in your country. Connect the electric power tool
to a suitable extraction system. To protect your health, wear a P2
protective mask.
Do not work with materials containing asbestos.
Modifications of the tool are prohibited.
Switch the machine off if it stops for whatever reason. This way you
avoid that it starts suddenly and not under supervision.
While working, lead the line cord / extension cord and the extraction
hose to the back away from the machine.
Power tools have to be inspected by a specialist in regular intervals.
Do not touch rotating parts.
