event that the electric tool kicks
back with the rotating disc, it
can spin directly towards you.
c) If the cutting disc jams, or you
interrupt your work, switch the
device off and hold it until the
disc has come to a full stop.
Never try to pull the cutting disc
out of the cut while it is still run-
ning, because it can kick back.
Identify and correct the cause of
the jamming.
d) Do not switch the electric tool
on again as long as it is in the
workpiece. Allow the cutting
disc to first reach its full rota-
tional speed before you care-
fully resume with the cutting.
Otherwise, the disc may catch,
spring away from the workpiece
or cause a kickback.
e) Support plates or workpieces
to reduce the risk of kickback
from a jammed cutting disc.
Large workpieces may bend
under their own weight. The
workpiece must be supported
on both sides of the disc, near
the cutting disc as well as also
at the edge.
f) Be particularly careful for pock-
et cuts in existing walls or other
areas where you cannot see
what is there. The cutting disc
may cause a kickback when
it cuts into gas or water lines,

electrical lines or other hidden
objects.
Additional safety
instructions
• Only use grinding discs where
the indicated rotational speed
is at least as high as what has
been specified on the name
plate of the device.
• Carry out a visual inspection
of the grinding disc before use.
Do not use any damaged or de-
formed grinding discs. Replace
any damaged or worn grinding
discs.
• Make sure that the sparks
produced by grinding do not
present a danger, e.g. reach
people or ignite flammable sub-
stances.
• Always wear safety goggles,
safety gloves, respiratory protec-
tion and ear protection when
grinding, brushing and cutting.
• Never keep the fingers between
the grinding disc and spark pro-
tection or in close proximity to
the protective hoods. There is a
risk of crushing.
• The rotating parts of the de-
vice cannot be covered due to
functional reasons. Therefore,
proceed cautiously and hold
the workpiece firmly in order
