Avoid flying sparks and sanding dust hit your body.
Never reach into the danger area of the machine
when it is running.
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the
machine is running.
Immediately switch off the machine in case of con-
siderable vibrations or if other malfunctions occur.
Check the machine in order to find out the cause.
Do not let any metal parts reach the airing slots -
danger of short circuit!
Under extreme conditions (e.g. smooth-grinding
metals with the arbour and vulcanized fibre grinding
wheel), significant contamination can build up on the
inside of the angle grinder. For safety reasons, in such
conditions the inside should be cleaned thoroughly
of metal deposits and a motor circuit-breaker must be
connected in series. If the motor circuit-breaker trips
the machine must be sent for repair.
For accessories intended to be fitted with threaded
hole wheel, ensure that the thread in the wheel is
long enough to accept the spindle length.
Always use and store the cutting and grinding disks
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Always use the correct guard for cutting and grin-
ding.
Always use guard with cutting guide from the acces-
sories range for cutting stone.
The adjusting nut must be tightened before starting

to be steady. Never move the workpiece towards the
rotating disk by hand.

Work instructions
Accumulators are supplied partially charged and
must therefore be fully charged before being used for
the first time.
• Charge the accumulator when the appliance is
running slowly or stops.
• A li-ion battery may be charged at any time without
any shortening of its life. Charging process interrup-
tion will not damage the accumulator.
• A li-ion battery is protected by the Electronic Cell
Protection against deep discharge.
• A significantly shorter operating time of a charged
battery means the battery life is over and the batte-
ry must be replaced.
Dispose of the batteries in an environmentally
friendly manner.
Li-ion batteries are subject to the special disposal
obligation. Have any defective batteries disposed of
by a specialised shop. The battery must be taken out
before the appliance is scrapped. Damaged batteries
may harm the environment and your health if toxic
vapours or liquids leak out of such batteries.
Therefore, never send a defective battery by post, etc.
Please contact your local recycling centre.
Dispose of the batteries when discharged. We
recommend applying an adhesive tape on the poles
to protect them against short circuit. Never open the
battery.
Maintenance
Take the replaceable battery from the
appliance before any extension, cleaning
and servicing works.
Repairs and works specified in these Instructions may
only be performed by qualified authorised staff. Use
only original accessories and original spare parts.
Keep the device, in particular the air vents, clean at all
times. Never spray water on the device body! Do not
clean the plastics with solvents, flammable or toxic
fluids. For cleaning, use a damp cloth only.
Caution! If the power cord of the appliance gets
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or
its customer service or a similarly qualified person to
avoid danger.
Only a regularly maintained and treated appliance
can serve as a satisfactory aid. Insufficient mainte-
nance and care can lead to unforeseen accidents and
injuries.
