rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback .

•  Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed 

saw blade . Such blades create frequent kickback and loss 

of control .

Safety warnings specific for Grinding 

and Abrasive Cutting-Off operations

•  Use only wheel types that are recommended for your 

power tool and the specific guard designed for the se-

lected wheel . Wheels for which the power tool was not 

designed cannot be adequately guarded and are unsafe .

•  The grinding surface of the centre depressed wheels 

must be mounted below the plane of the guard lip . An 

improperly mounted wheel that projects through the 

plane of the guard lip cannot be adequately protected .

•  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, 

accidental contact with wheel and sparks that could ig-

nite clothing .

•  Wheels must be used only for recommended applica-

tions . For example: do not grind with the side of the 

cut-off wheel . Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for 

peripheral grinding; side forces applied to these wheels 

may cause them to shatter .

•  Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct 

size and shape for your selected wheel . Proper wheel 

flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility 

of wheel breakage . Flanges for cut-off wheels may be dif-

ferent from grinding wheel flanges .

•  Do not use worn down reinforced wheels from larger 

power tools . Wheels intended for larger power tools are 

not suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and 

may burst .

Additional safety warnings specific for abrasive 

cutting off operations

•  Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply excessive pres-

sure . 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 .

•  Do not position your body in line with and behind the 

rotating wheel . When the wheel, at the point of opera-

tion, is moving away from your body, the possible kick-

back may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool 

directly at you .

•  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 complete stop . 

Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the cut 

while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may oc-

cur . Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate 

the cause of wheel binding .

•  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 .

•  Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize 

the risk of wheel pinching and kickback . Large workpiec-

es 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 .

•  Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into exist-

ing walls or other blind areas . The protruding wheel may 

cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that 

can cause kickback .

Safety warnings specific for sanding operations

•  Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper . Fol-

low manufacturers recommendations, when selecting 

sanding paper . Larger sanding paper extending beyond 

the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may 

cause snagging, tearing of the disc, or kickback .

Safety warnings specific for wire brushing 

operations

•  Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even 

during ordinary operation . Do not overstress the wires 

by applying excessive load to the brush . The wire bristles 

can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin .

•  If the use of a guard is recommended for wire brushing, 

do not allow any interference of the wire wheel or brush 

with the guard . Wire wheel or brush may expand in diam-

eter due to work load and centrifugal forces .

Additional safety warnings

•  Wear safety goggles .

•  Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hid-

den in the work area or call the local utility company for 

assistance . Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and 

electric shock . Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion . 

Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may 

cause an electric shock .

•  Release the On/Off switch and set it to the off position 

when the power supply is interrupted, e . g ., in case of a 

power failure or when the mains plug is pulled . This pre-

vents uncontrolled restarting .

•  Do not touch grinding and cutting discs before they have 

cooled down . The discs can become very hot while work-

ing .

•  Secure the workpiece . A workpiece clamped with clamp-

ing devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand .

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Make sure that the machine is not live when carrying 

out maintenance work on the motor .

•  Regularly clean the machine housing with a soft cloth, 

preferably after each use . Keep the ventilation slots free 

from dust and dirt .If the dirt does not come off use a soft 

cloth moistened with soapy water . Never use solvents 

such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia water, etc . These sol-

vents may damage the plastic parts .

•  The machine requires no additional lubrication .

•  Should a fault occur, e .g . after wear of a part, please con-

tact your local BORT GLOBAL LIMITED dealer .
