[. . . ] Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. B) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. [. . . ] The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece. Additional safety instructions for grinding and cutting off operations Use only wheel types that are recommended for your power tool and the specific guard designed for the selected wheel. Wheels for which the power tool was not designed cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe. The guard must be securely attached to the power tool and positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards the operator. The guard helps to protect operator from broken wheel fragments and accidental contact with wheel. English | 23 Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. 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 machine is intended for cutting, roughing, and brushing metal and stone materials without using water. For cutting metal, a special protection guard for cutting (accessory) must be used. For cutting stone, a special extraction hood for cutting with cutting guide (accessory) must be used. With approved sanding tools, the machine can be used for sanding with sanding discs. Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are: Sound pressure level 88 dB(A); Sound power level 99 dB(A). The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. the declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns. 1 Release lever for protection guard 2 Spindle lock button 3 On/Off switch 4 Auxiliary handle 5 Grinder spindle 6 Protection guard for sanding* 7 Protection guard for cutting* 8 Mounting flange 9 Grinding/cutting disc* 10 Clamping nut 11 Hand guard* 12 Rubber sanding plate* 13 Sanding sheet* 14 Round nut* 15 Cup brush* 16 Cutting guide with dust extraction protection guard * 17 Diamond cutting disc* Angle Grinder Article number Rated power input Output power No-load speed Grinding disc diameter, max.

[. . . ] , concrete with high pebble content, the diamond cutting disc can overheat and become damaged as a result. This is clearly indicated by circular sparking, rotating with the diamond cutting disc. In this case, interrupt the cutting process and allow the diamond cutting disc to cool by running the machine for a short time at maximum speed with no load. Noticeable decreasing work progress and circular sparking are indications of a diamond cutting disc that has become dull. [. . . ]
