Combined safety instructions for
grinding, sanding and polishing
 This electric power tool must be used
as a grinder, sander and polisher.
Observe all safety information, instruc-
tions, diagrams and data which you
receive with the power tool. If you do not
observe the following instructions, an
electric shock, fire and/or serious injuries
may occur.
 This electric power tool is not suitable
for use with wire brushes and for cut-off
grinding. If the electric power tool is not
used as intended, the user may be
exposed to hazards and may be injured.
 Never use accessories which the manu-
facturer did not intend or recommend
especially for this electric power tool.
Just because you can attach the acces-
sory to your electric power tool does not
guarantee safe use.
 The permitted speed of the insertion tool
must be at least as high as the maximum
speed indicated on the electric power tool.
An accessory which rotates faster than
permitted may shatter and fly off.
 Outer diameter and thickness of the inser-
tion tool must correspond to the dimen-
sions of the electric power tool.
Incorrectly measured insertion tools
cannot be adequately shielded or
controlled.
 Grinding discs, flanges, sanding pads
or other accessories must fit exactly on the
grinding spindle of your electric power tool.
Insertion tools, which do not fit exactly on
the grinding spindle of the electric power
tool, rotate unevenly, vibrate violently
and may result in loss of control.

 Do not use any damaged insertion tools.
Before use, always check insertion tools
for splinters and cracks, sanding pad
for cracks, wear and severe abrasion,
wire brushes for loose or broken wires.
If the electric power tool or the insertion tool
is dropped, check for damage or use an
undamaged insertion tool. When you have
checked and inserted the tool, ensure that
you and anybody in the vicinity remain
outside the plane of the rotating insertion
tool and leave the power tool running for
one minute at maximum speed. Damaged
insertion tools usually break during this
test time.
 Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on the application, wear full
face protection, eye protection or goggles.
If appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing
protection, protective gloves and/or
a special apron which protect you from
small sanding and material particles.
You should protect your eyes from
foreign objects which are ejected for
different applications. Dust and respirator
masks must filter the dust which is
generated by the power tool for the
particular appli-cation. If you are exposed
to loud noise for a prolonged period, you
may suffer hearing loss.
 Ensure that other persons are situated
at a safe distance from the work area.
Anyone who enters the work area must
wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of the workpiece or broken
insertion tools may fly off and cause inju-
ries even outside the direct working area.
 If the insertion tool is at risk of coming into
contact with concealed power cables
or the power cord itself, hold the power tool
by the insulated grip surfaces only.
Contact with a live cable may also cause
metal parts of the appliance to become
live and result in an electric shock.
 Keep the power cord away from rotating
insertion tools. If you lose control of the
appliance, the power cord could be seve-
red or become caught and your hand or
arm may strike the rotating insertion tool.
