- 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.
- Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do not touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug
when the cable is damaged while working. Damaged cables in-crease the risk of an electric shock.
- Connect the machine to a mains supply with proper earthing connection. Socket outlet and extension cable
must be equipped with an operative protective conductor.
- 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 rotating
application tool and run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute. Damaged application tools will
normally break apart during this test time.
- Use the machine only with the spark deflector (5) and the eyeshield (8). Sparks being expelled can injure
your eyes or set objects in the vi-cinity on fire.
- When grinding, tilt down the eyeshield (8) as far as possible. Sparking occurs when grinding metal.
- Regularly check the clearance between the work rest (2) as well as the spark deflector (5) to the grinding
wheel, and readjust as required. The clearance to the grinding wheel may not exceed 2 mm. When the
clearance is larger, you are not sufficiently protected against sparking. The workpiece can be drawn in by the ro-
tational motion of the grinding wheel and lead to injuries.
- Guide the workpiece only against the switched-on ma-chine and do not switch the machine off until after
having removed the workpiece. The workpiece can move suddenly.
- Never apply the workpiece laterally against the rotating grinding wheel, and always grind from the front.
The workpiece can be drawn out of your hand through the rotational motion of the grinding wheel and lead to
injuries.
- Never reach into the running grinding wheel of the machine. This can lead to serious injuries.
- Do not stop coasting grinding wheels by applying lateral pressure to them. The workpiece can be drawn
out of your hand through the rotational motion of the grinding wheel and lead to injuries.
- Wear a work apron. Pay attention that other persons are not put at risk from sparking. Remove flammable
materials in close vicinity. Sparking occurs when cutting metal.
- Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or
explode.
CAUTION ! Dust extraction:
- Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings and minerals can be harmful to health. Touching or
breathing-in the dust can cause allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or bystanders.
- Materials containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
- Provide a good ventilation of the working place and prevent dust accumulation at the workplace.
- It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator. Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
- The machine is intended for sharpening tools as well as for grinding and deburring metal.
- The machine may only be used for short-time operation (30 min. max).
1. Power source check
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to the power requirements specified on the product
nameplate.
2. Switch status check
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If the plug is connected while the power switch is in the ON
position, the power tool will start operating immediately, which could cause a serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as practicable.
4. Electrical safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only. Always check that the power supply corresponds to
the voltage on the rating plate.
