irregularly, vibrate very strongly, and can lead to a loss of control.
• Do not use damaged insertion tools. Each time before you use an insertion tool such as a
grinding or cutting disc, check for chipping, cracks, signs of wear, or heavy abrasion. If the device
or insertion tool should fall, check if it is damaged or use an undamaged insertion tool. Once you
have checked the insertion tool and inserted it, make sure that you and everyone in the vicinity
stay outside of the plane of the rotating insertion tool and let the device run for one minute at the
highest rotation speed.Damaged insertion tools will usually break during this test period.
• Wear personal safety equipment. According to the usage, use full facial protection, eye
protection or safety glasses. If required, wear a dust mask, ear protection, protective gloves or a
specialized apron to protect against shards and other particles. Your eyes should be protected

heavy build-up of metal dust can lead to electrical dangers.
• Do not use any insertion tools that require a liquid cooling agent. Using water or other liquid
cooling agents can lead to electric shock.
