NOTE: BEFORE THE POWER TOOL IS USED FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ 
THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL AND KEEP IT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

DETAILED SAFETY REGULATIONS

ANGLE GRINDER, SAFETY WARNINGS

Safety guidelines for grinding, sanding with sandpaper, working 
with wire brushes and cutting using the grinding wheel.

• This power tool can be used as a regular grinder, sander 

for sanding with sandpaper, grinder for grinding with wire 
brushes and for cutting with a cut-off wheel. Observe all safety 
guidelines, instructions, descriptions and data provided with 
the power tool. 

Failure to observe the following recommendations 

may cause danger of electric shock, fire and/or serious injuries.

• This power tool cannot be used for polishing. 

When the power 

tool is used for other works than it is designed for, it may contribute to 
hazards and injuries.

• Do not use equipment, which is not designed and recommended 

by the manufacturer specifically for this device. 

The fact that it 

can be fastened to the power tool, does not guarantee safe operation.

• The permissible rotational speed of a working tool used cannot 

be lower than the maximum rotational speed given on the 
power tool. 

A working tool rotating faster than the permissible speed 

may break and its parts may chip off.

• The outside diameter and thickness of a working tool must 

correspond to dimensions of the power tool. 

A working tool of 

incorrect dimensions may not provide sufficient control and covering 
of the power tool.

• Working tools with threaded inserts must perfectly fit the 

thread in the spindle. In case of working tools that are fastened 
using a flange, the hole diameter of a working tool must fit the 
flange diameter. 

Working tools, which cannot be precisely seated in 

the power tool, rotate unevenly, vibrate heavily and may result in loss 
of control over the power tool.

• Under no circumstances, should damaged working tools be 

used. Before the power tool is used, accessories such as cut-off 
wheels should be checked for chips and cracks, grinding wheels 
should be checked for cracks, abrasion or heavy wear, while 
wire brushes for loose or broken wires. When the power tool 
or a working tool is dropped, it must be checked for damage 
or another, undamaged tool should be used. If a working tool 
is checked and fastened, the power tool should be switched on 
for a minute at the highest speed, paying attention so that the 
operator and bystanders are beyond the zone of the rotating 
tool.

 Damaged working tools often break in this test period.

• Always wear personal protective equipment. Depending on a 

type of work, a full face mask, eye protection or safety glasses 
should be worn. A dust mask, ear protection, protective gloves 
or a special apron protecting against small particles of abrasive 
material and workpiece should be worn, if needed. 

Protect your 

eyes against airborne foreign bodies occurring during operation. A 
dust mask and protective mask for the respiratory system must filter 
dust occurring during work. The influence of noise for a longer period 
of time may lead to deterioration of the hearing.

• Always make sure bystanders are in a safe distance from the 

power tool reach zone. All people staying in the vicinity of the 
operating power tool must use personal protective equipment. 

Chips of a workpiece or broken working tools may chip off and cause 
injuries also beyond the direct reach zone.

• When works are performed, during which the power tool may 

GB

encounter hidden electric conductors or own power cord, 
the power tool should be held by the isolated surfaces of the 
handle.

 A contact with the power mains network may transfer voltage 

onto metal parts of the power tool, which may result in electric shock.

• The power cord must be kept away from the rotating working 

tools. 

When the control over the tool is lost, the power cord may be cut 

or caught, and your hand or the entire arm may get into the rotating 
working tool.

• Do not put the power tool aside, before the working tool comes 

to complete stop. 

The rotating working tool may come in contact 

with a surface, which it is put aside onto, and you may lose control over 
the tool.

• Do not carry the power tool, which is in motion. 

An accidental 

contact with the rotating working tool may caught in your clothes and 
drill into an operator’s body.

• Clean ventilation slots of the power tool on a regular basis. 

The 

motor blower sucks dust into the casing, while large accumulation of 
metal dust may cause electric hazard.

• Do not use the power tool near flammable materials. 

Sparks may 

cause ignition.

• Do not use tools, which require liquid cooling agents. 

The use of 

water or other cooling agents may cause electric shocks.

Recoil and proper safety guidelines

•

Recoil is a sudden reaction of the power tool to seizure or blocking 
of a rotating working tool, such a grinding wheel, cut-off wheel or 
a wire brush, etc. 
The seizure and blocking may suddenly stop a rotating working 
tool. The power tool without control will be jerked in the opposite 
direction to the working tool.  
When the grinding wheel stops or catches in the workpiece, an 
edge od the grinding wheel immersed in the workpiece may lock 
and cause recoil or rejection. The movement of the grinding wheel 
(towards or away from the operator) depends on the movement 
of the grinding wheel in a place, where it is locked. The grinding 
wheels may also break. 
Recoil is a consequence of incorrect operation of the power tool. 
This can be avoided by observing the following precautions.

• The power tool must be held firmly, while your body and hands 

should be positioned to alleviate recoil. If the additional handle 
is included as standard equipment, it should be used at all times 
to provide the highest control over recoil forces or rejecting 
moment during start-up. 

An operator can take control of recoil and 

jerking by taking proper precautions.

• Never hold your hands in the vicinity of rotating working tools. 

A working tool may injure your hand as a result of recoil.

• Always stay away from the reach zone, in which the power tool 

moves during recoil. 

As a result of recoil, the power tool moves in 

the opposite direction to the movement of the grinding wheel, where 
it locks.

• Corners, sharp edges, etc. should be worked with special attention. 

Recoil or locking of the working tools should be prevented. 

A rotating working tool is more prone to seizure, when working angles, 
corners, sharp edges or when it is rebound. This may result in loss of 
control or recoil.

• Do not use discs for wood or toothed discs. 

Working tools of this 

type often cause recoil or loss of control over the working tool.

Special safety guidelines for grinding and cutting with the 
grinding wheel.

• Always use the grinding wheel intended for a given power 

tool and guard intended for a given grinding wheel. 

Grinding 

wheel that are not part of equipment of a given power tool may be 
insufficiently covered or safe.

• Offset grinding wheels should be fastened so that their 

grinding surface does not protrude beyond the protective 
guard.

 Incorrectly seated grinding wheel and protruding beyond the 

edge of the protective guard may not be sufficiently covered.

• The guard must be secured to the power tool to ensure the 

highest possible safety level and positioned so that the 
uncovered part of the grinding wheel facing the operator is 
as small as possible. 

The guard protects the operator against chips, 

accidental contact with the grinding wheel and sparks, which may set 
clothing on fire.
