Stanley FATMAX FMEG220 Mode D'emploi page 7

The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the
power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
Support panels or any oversized workpiece to
u
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.
Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into
u
existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding
wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or
objects that can cause kickback.
Safety warnings specific for sanding operations
Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper.
u
Follow manufacturers recommendations, when
selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper
extending beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration
hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc or
kickback.
Safety warnings specific for wire brushing
operations
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush
u
even during ordinary operation.
Do not overstress the wires by applying excessive
load to the brush. The wire bristles can easily penetrate
light clothing and/or skin.
If the use of a guard is recommended for wire
u
brushing, do not allow any interference of the wire
wheel or brush with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may
expand in diameter due to work load and centrifugal
forces.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons
u
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or

Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured
in accordance with a standard test method provided by
EN 60745 and may be used for comparing one tool with
another. The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of
the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the
trigger time.
Labels on tool
The following pictograms, along with the date code, are shown
on the tool:
Warning! To reduce the risk of injury, the user
must read the instruction manual.
Wear safety glasses or goggles when operating
this tool.
Wear ear protection when operating this tool
Electrical safety
Your charger is double insulated; therefore no
earth wire is required. Always check that the
mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
u
manufacturer or an authorised Stanley Fat Max Service
