 Do not lay down the electric tool before the attachment has
stopped spinning. The spinning attachment may come in
touch with the surface, which may cause loss of control.
 Do not carry the electric tool while it is running. Clothes may
become caught in the spinning attachment and the attach-
ment may cause severe injury.
 Periodically clean the ventilation slots of the electric tool. The
cooling ventilator draws dust into the housing. An accumula-
tion of metallic dust may lead to dangerous electrical condi-
tions.
 Do not use the tool close to combustible materials. Flying
sparks may ignite such materials.
 Do not use attachments which require liquid coolants. Use of
water or other liquid coolants can cause an electric shock.
Kickback
 Kickback is the sudden reaction of a wedged or locked
spinning attachment such as a grinding or sanding disc or a
wire brush etc. This causes the spinning attachment to come
to a sudden stop, which will force the electric tool against the
rotating direction of the attachment.
 If, for instance, a cutting disc becomes locked or jammed in
the workpiece, the edge of the disc may fracture inside the
workpiece and cause a violent kickback. The disc will them
move away from or towards the operator, depending on the
direction of rotation on the locking point. This may also shatter
the disc.
 Kickback is caused by wrong or inappropriate use of the tool
and can be avoided by following the safety advice below.
 Hold the electric tool tightly with both hands and assume a
position, in which you can compensate a kickback. If present,
use the accessory handle to e able to control kickback and
countermovement of the running motor. With the necessary
