for which the tool is not designed
may cause risks and injury.
c Do not use accessories that
have not been designed and rec
ommended by the manufacturer for
use with this electrical tool. Just
because you can affix an accessory
to your electrical tool, does not guar-
antee that it is safe to use.
d The permitted revolutions of the
tool insert must be at least as high
as the highest revolutions specified
on the electrical tool. Accessories
that turn faster than is permitted may
be destroyed.
e The external diameter and thick
ness of the tool insert must match
the dimensions of your electrical
tool. Incorrectly measured tool inserts
cannot be properly protected or
checked.
f Sanding discs, flange, sanding plate
or other accessories must fit pre
cisely onto the sanding spindle of
your electrical tool. Tool inserts that
do not fit precisely into the sanding
spindle of the electrical tool will rotate
unevenly, vibrate very heavily and
may lead to a loss of control.
g Do not use damaged tool inserts.
Before each use, check the tool
inserts such as sanding discs for
splits and tears, sanding plates for
tears or wear or weaknesses, wire
brushes for loose or broken wires.
If the electrical tool or tool insert
is dropped, check to make sure it
is not damaged, or use an undam
aged tool insert. After checking and
installing the tool insert, make sure
that you and anybody else in the
vicinity are outside the area of the
54
rotating tool insert and allow the tool

to rotate at top speed for a minute. A
damaged tool insert will usually break
within this test period.
h Wear personal protective gear.
Depending on application, use full
face protection, visor or goggles.
Where appropriate, wear dust pro
tection masks, ear defenders, pro
tective gloves or special aprons to
keep the tiny grinding and material
particles away. The eyes should be
protected from the flying objects that
are generated by the various applica-
tions. Dust or breathing masks should
be capable of filtering dust when
the unit is used for a purpose during
which dust is generated. If you are
exposed to loud noises for a longer
period of time, you hearing may suf-
fer.
i Ensure that other people are kept
at a safe distance to the area in
which you are working. Anyone who
enters the working area should be
wearing personal protective gear.
Pieces of the workpiece or broken
tools may be thrown up and cause
injury even outside the immediate
working area.
j Hold the tool by the insulated han
dle surfaces only when carrying out
tasks during which is it possible
that the tools will come across hid
den power cables or its own cable.
Contact with a power-carrying cable
can also put metal parts of the unit
under power and cause an electric
shock.
k Keep the main power cable away
from rotating tools. If you loose con-
trol of the unit, the power cable may
be cut or caught up and your hand or
arm may be pulled into the rotating
tool.
