back may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool
directly at you.
When the wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut
u
for any reason, switch off the power tool and hold it
motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop.
Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the
cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback
may occur. Investigate and take corrective action to elim-
inate the cause of wheel binding.
Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece.
u
Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully re-enter
the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the
power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minim-
u
ize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large
workpieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports
must be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut
and near the edge of the workpiece on both sides of the
wheel.
Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into ex-
u
isting walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel
may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects
that can cause kickback.
Do not attempt to do curved cutting. Overstressing the
u
wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting
or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of
kickback or wheel breakage, which can lead to serious in-
jury.
Safety warnings specific for sanding operations:
Use proper sized sanding disc paper. Follow manufac-
u
turers recommendations, when selecting sanding pa-
per. Larger sanding paper extending too far beyond the
sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause
snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.
Safety warnings specific for wire brushing operations:
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush
u
even during ordinary operation. Do not overstress the
wires by applying excessive load to the brush The wire
bristles can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
If the use of a guard is specified for wire brushing, do
u
not allow any interference of the wire wheel or brush
with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in dia-
meter due to work load and centrifugal forces.
Additional safety information
Wear safety goggles.
The protective guard must not be used for
cutting. With a suitable adapter, the protective
guard can also be used for cutting.
Hold the power tool firmly with both hands
and make sure you have a stable footing. The
power tool can be more securely guided with
both hands.
Bosch Power Tools
For application tools with an internal thread, such as
u
brushes and diamond annular cutters, attention must
be paid to the max. thread length of the grinding
spindle. The spindle end must not touch the base of the
application tool.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are
u
hidden in the work area or call the local utility com-
pany for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead
to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property dam-
age or may cause an electric shock.
Do not touch grinding and cutting discs until they have
u
cooled down. The discs can become very hot while work-
ing.
Release the On/Off switch and set it to the off position
u
when the power supply is interrupted, e. g., in case of
a power failure or when the mains plug is pulled. This
prevents uncontrolled restarting.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
u
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by
hand.
Store the application tools inside buildings, in a dry,
u
frost-free room at a uniform temperature.
Remove the application tools before transporting the
u
power tool. This will allow you to avoid damage.
Bonded cutting and grinding discs have an expiration
u
date, after which the discs must no longer be used.
Products sold in GB only:
Your product is fitted with an BS 1363/A approved electric
plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an au-
thorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
