peripheral gap greater than 10 mm or
toothed saw blade. Such blades create fre-
quent kickback and loss of control.
d) Do not "jam" the wheel or apply excessive
pressure. Do not attempt to make an exces-
sive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel
increases the loading and susceptibility to
twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut
and the possibility of kickback or wheel
breakage.
e) When the wheel is binding or when inter-
rupting a cut for any reason, switch off the
power tool and hold the cutting unit motion-
less until the wheel comes to a complete stop.
Never attempt to remove the wheel from the
cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise
kickback may occur. Investigate and take
corrective action to eliminate the cause of
wheel binding.
f) Do not restart the cutting operation in the
workpiece. 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.
g) Support any oversized workpiece to minimize
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.
To avoid danger to life from
electric shock!
Ensure that the mains lead does not enter
the working area of the disc or lie within
range of flying sparks.
Always keep the angle grinder's mains lead
in place using the clip
Always pull your angle grinder's mains plug
out of the mains socket before you carry out
any cleaning or adjustment of your product.

Avoiding the danger of injury
and/or damage to property!
While working with your angle
grinder always wear protective
glasses, hearing protection and
safety gloves, and if necessary a hairnet
(with long hair) and a dust mask (depending
on the materials being cut).
Do not wear loose clothing while you are
working with your product.
Fasten the product through the fastening
holes down on to a workbench / table. En-
sure that the workbench / table and the
product are stable.
The eye protection must be capable of
stopping flying debris generated by various
operations. The dust mask or respirator must
be capable of filtrating particles generated
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to
high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
CAUTION! DANGER OF INJURY! En-
sure that you do not come into contact with
the cutting disc while working.
Always use the cutting disc safety guard
Use this product only with angle grinders
that have a suitable metal protective guard
around the disc (see Fig. 7).
Position this protective guard on the grinder
in such a way that the lower part of the ro-
tating cutting disc is uncovered and the
grinder's protective guard cannot come into
contact with the workpiece.
CAUTION! DANGER OF
FIRE! Cutting metal creates
sparks. Ensure that there are no
ignitable materials in the working area.
Sparks can damage paint, glass and other
surfaces. Do not wear clothing made of ny-
lon or polyester; wear suitable, non-inflam-
mable working clothes.
Ensure that the workpiece is held firmly in
place and lies tightly against the base plate.
Do not use the product on workpieces that
are too large, otherwise they cannot be held
firmly in middle of the vice.
