Safety

• Wear safety glasses, a face shield, hearing protection and suitable respiratory protection for the dust generated.
• Wear suitable protective gloves and footwear. Secure loose clothing and long hair, and keep jewellery away from the tool.
• Use the correct cutting guard and auxiliary handle, and hold the grinder firmly with both hands.
• Never exceed the maximum speed marked on the disc: 13,300 rpm and 80 m/s.
• Do not use a cracked, chipped, distorted or expired disc. Do not enlarge the bore or modify the disc.
• Cut with the edge only. Never grind with the sides, twist the disc in the cut or apply lateral pressure.
• Clamp and support the workpiece to prevent movement and pinching. Keep hands clear and position your body away from the plane of the rotating disc.
• If the disc binds, switch off and hold the tool still until it stops completely. Resolve the cause before continuing; do not restart with the disc trapped in the cut.
• Direct sparks away from people, combustible materials and vulnerable surfaces. Keep bystanders clear.
• Do not introduce water or coolant unless both the disc and tool manufacturers explicitly approve that use.
• Allow cut material to cool before handling and take care around sharp edges.
• Wait for the disc to stop fully before putting the grinder down. Disconnect the power before changing accessories, making adjustments or leaving the tool unattended.
