Special safety instructions

Do not use damaged accessories.
g)
Before every use, inspect accessories
such as grinding wheels for splintering
and cracks, grinding discs for cracks or
severe wear and wire brushes for loose
or broken wires. If the electric tool or
accessory falls down, check whether
it is damaged or use an undamaged
accessory. When you have inspected
and fitted the accessory, keep yourself
and other persons in the vicinity outside
the plane of the rotating accessory and
allow the device to run at maximum
speed for one minute. Damaged attach-
ments normally break during this test time.
Wear personal protective equipment.
h)
Depending on the application, use a
full face mask, eyeshield or protective
goggles. If appropriate, wear a dust
mask, hearing protection, protective
gloves or a special apron that protects
you from small grinding and material
particles. The eyes should be protected from
flying foreign matter that can occur during
various applications. The dust mask or face mask
must be suitable for filtering out the dust created
during the application. If you are exposed to
a loud noise for a prolonged period, you may
suffer a loss of hearing.
Ensure that other persons stay a safe
i)
distance away from your working
area. Everyone entering the working
area must wear personal protective
equipment. Broken pieces of the workpiece or
broken attachments can fly off and cause injuries
even outside the direct working area.
Hold the device only at the insulated
j)
handles when carrying out work where
the attachment could contact concealed
electricity cables or the mains lead of
the electric tool. Contact with a live cable can
make metallic parts of the device live and may
lead to an electric shock.
Keep the mains lead away from
k)
rotating attachments.
If you lose control over the device, the mains lead
may be severed or caught up and may pull your
hand or arm into the rotating attachment.
