paired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-
cordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
 Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free
from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping sur-
faces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool
in unexpected situations.
Service
 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-
son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-
sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Bench grinder safety warnings

 Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use,
check the grinding wheel for chips and cracks. If the
machine or application tool is dropped, inspect for
damage or install an undamaged application tool. After
inspecting and installing the application tool, position
yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the ro-
tating application tool and run the power tool at maxi-
mum no-load speed for one minute. Damaged applica-
tion tools will normally break apart during this test time.
 The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal
to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Ac-
cessories running faster than their rated speed can break
and fly apart.
 Never grind on the sides of grinding wheels. Grinding on
the sides can cause grinding wheels to break and fly apart.
Wear safety goggles.
 Store the machine in a safe manner when not being
used. The storage location must be dry and lockable.
This prevents the machine from storage damage, and from
being operated by untrained persons.
 Check the cable regularly and have a damaged cable re-
paired only through an authorised customer service
agent for Bosch power tools. Replace damaged exten-
sion cables. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
 Connect the machine to a mains supply with proper
earthing connection. Socket outlet and extension cable
must be equipped with an operative protective conductor.
 Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are par-
ticularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or ex-
plode.
 Protect the grinding tool against impact, shock and grease.
