corner areas or where there are
sharp corners etc. Prevent the at-
tachment tools from recoiling from the
workpiece and jamming. The rotating
attachment tool tends to jam when near
corners, sharp edges or when it recoils
from such. This causes a loss of control
or kickback.
e) Do not use chain or toothed
saw blades. Such attachment tools
frequently cause a kickback or loss of
control over the electric tool.
Special safety instructions for
grinding and cutting
a) Use only grinders which have
been approved for your electric
tool and the protective hood in-
tended for these grinders. Grinders
which are not intended for the electric
are unsafe.
b) Depressed centre grinding
wheels must be pre-mounted in
such a way that their grinding
surface does not protrude over
the level of the edge of the pro
-
tective cover. An incorrectly mounted
grinding wheel which protrudes beyond
the level of the edge of the protective
cover cannot be adequately shielded.
c) The protective hood must be se
-
curely attached to the electric tool
and adjusted so that the greatest
level of safety is reached, i.e., the
smallest possible amount of the grinder
is exposed to the operator. The protec
-
tive hood should protect the operator
from broken bits and accidental contact
with the grinder.
d) Grinders may only be used for
the recommended attachment op

the side surface of a cutting disc. Cutting
discs are for cutting material using the
edge of the disc. Pushing sideways on
these grinders can break them.
e) Always use undamaged clamp-
and shape for the grinding disc
you selected.-
port the grinding disc and thus reduce
the danger of the grinding disc break-
grinding discs.
f) Do not use worn grinding discs
for larger electric tools. Grinding
discs for larger electric tools are not
set up for the higher rotation speeds of
smaller electric tools and can break.
Other special safety instructions for
cutting grinding
a) Avoid blocking the cutting disc
or pressing down too hard. Do
not make any excessively deep cuts.
Overloading the cutting disc increases
wear and its tendency to tilt or block
and, with that, to kickback or break the
grinder.
b) Avoid the area in front of and
behind the rotating cutting disc.
When you move the cutting disc by
itself in the workpiece, in the event that
the electric tool kicks back with the ro-
tating 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 running, because
it can kick back. Identify and correct
the cause of the jamming.
