General safety advice for electrical power tools

power tools for purposes other than those in-
tended can lead to dangerous situations.

5. Use and handling of the

cordless electrical power tool

a)

Charge a rechargeable battery unit
using only the charger recommended
by the manufacturer.
Chargers are often
designed for a particular type of rechargeable
battery unit. There is the danger of fire if other
types of rechargeable battery units are used.

b)

Only the rechargeable battery units
supplied are to be used with an elec-
trical power tool.
The use of other recharge-
able battery units may lead to the danger of
injury or fire.

c)

When they are not being used, store
rechargeable battery units away from
paperclips, coins, keys. nails, screws
or other small metal objects that could
cause the contacts to be bridged.
Short-
circuiting the contacts of a rechargeable battery
unit may result in heat damage or fire.

d)

Fluids may leak out of rechargeable
battery units if they are misused. If
this happens, avoid contact with the
fluid. If contact occurs, flush the af-
fected area with water. Seek addi-
tional medical help if any of the fluid
gets into your eyes.
Escaping battery fluid
may cause skin irritation or burns.

6. Service

a)

Have your device repaired at the ser-
vice centre or by qualified specialist
personnel using original manufacturer
parts only.
This will ensure that your device
remains safe to use.

Safety notices specifically

pertaining to hand grinders

DANGER DUE TO DUST!

When working on wood for extended periods
and particularly when working on materials
which generate dust which is dangerous to the
health, be sure to connect it to a suitable dust
extractor. Wear safety glasses and a dust mask.

Avoid sanding paint containing lead or other

materials harmful to your health.

TOXIC FUMES! Working

with harmful / toxic dust poses a risk to the
health of the person operating the unit and to
anyone nearby.

RISK OF FIRE FROM FLYING SPARKS!
Grinding metals produces flying sparks. Thus
be very careful not to endanger persons, and
that no flammables are near the work area.

Ensure proper ventilation when working on pla-
stics, paint, lacquer, etc.

Do not work on damp materials or moist surfaces.

Do not work on materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.

Never use the device for any purpose other
than the intended purpose and only use it with
the original parts and accessories. Using parts
or accessories not specified in the instructions
may result in injuries.

Secure the work-piece. Use clamps or a
vice to secure the work piece. This will secure it
more safely than your hand.
