u Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has

come to a complete stop. The spinning wheel may grab

the surface and pull the power tool out of your control.

u Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your

side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory

could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your

body.

u Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The motor’s

fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive

accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical

hazards.

u Do not operate the power tool near flammable materi-

als. Sparks could ignite these materials.

Kickback and related warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotat-

ing wheel. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the

rotating wheel which in turn causes the uncontrolled power

tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the wheel’s ro-

tation at the point of the binding.

For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by

the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the

pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing

the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either

jump toward or away from the operator, depending on direc-

tion of the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching. Abras-

ive wheels may also break under these conditions.

Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect

operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by

taking proper precautions as given below.

u Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position

your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback

forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for

maximum control over kickback or torque reaction

during start-up. The operator can control torque reac-

tions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.

u Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.

Accessory may kickback over your hand.

u Do not position your body in line with the rotating

wheel. Kickback will propel the tool in direction opposite

to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.

u Use special care when working corners, sharp edges

etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory.

Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to

snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or

kickback.

u Do not attach a saw chain, woodcarving blade, seg-

mented diamond wheel with a peripheral gap greater

than 10 mm or toothed saw blade. Such blades create

frequent kickback and loss of control.

u Do not “jam” the wheel or apply excessive pressure.

Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut.

Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and sus-

ceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut

and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.

u 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 com-

plete stop. Never attempt to remove the wheel from

the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kick-

back may occur. Investigate and take corrective action

to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.

u 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.

u Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minim-

ize 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.

u Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into ex-

isting walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel

may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects

that can cause kickback.

Additional Safety Information

Wear hearing protection, pro-

tective goggles, a dust mask

and gloves. Use at least an FFP

2 protection class particle-fil-

tering half mask.

u Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with

clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by

hand.

u Do not touch the cutting disc after use before it has

cooled. The cutting disc becomes very hot during use.

u Hold the power tool firmly with both hands and make

sure you have a stable footing. The power tool can be

more securely guided with both hands.

u In case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-

pours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or ex-

plode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical

attention should you experience any adverse effects. The

vapours may irritate the respiratory system.

u Do not modify or open the battery. There is a risk of

short-circuiting.

u The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such

as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally.

An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to

burn, smoke, explode or overheat.

u Only use the battery in the manufacturer's products.

This is the only way in which you can protect the battery

against dangerous overload.

Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against

continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water

and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and

short-circuiting.
