Flanges for cut-off wheels may be different from grinding
wheel flanges.
• Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools.
Wheel intended for larger power tool is not suitable for the higher
speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
Additional Safety Warnings Specific for Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations
• Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply excessive
pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut.
Over stressing 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.
• Do not position your body in line with and behind the
rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the point of operation, is
moving away from your body, the possible kickback may propel
the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
• When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any
reason, switch off the power tool and hold the power tool
motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never
attempt to remove the cut-off 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.
• 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.
• Support panels or 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.
• Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into
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.
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 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 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.
Safety of Others
• This power tool is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the power tool by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the power tool.
Residual Risks
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations and
the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks can
not be avoided. These include:
• Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
• Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades
or accessories.
• Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using any
tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular breaks.
• Impairment of hearing.
• Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
using your tool (example: working with wood, especially oak,
beech and MDF).
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:
a
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.
Always operate with two hands.
Electrical Safety
i
This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth
wire is required. Always check that the power
supply corresponds to the voltage on the
rating plate.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or an authorised BLACK+DECKER Service Centre in
order to avoid a hazard.
