•  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.

•  Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or 

toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kick-
back 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 
ignite 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 
different 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 pow-
er 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 occur. 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 work-
pieces 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 
diameter due to work load and centrifugal forces.

Additional safety warnings

•  Wear safety goggles.
•  Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are 

hidden 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 
prevents uncontrolled restarting.

•  Do not touch grinding and cutting discs before they 

have cooled down. The discs can become very hot while 
working.

•  Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with 

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

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Make sure that the machine is not live when carry-
ing 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 

contact your local BORT GLOBAL LIMITED dealer.
