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 ex-
cessive 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 interfer-
ence of the wire wheel or brush with the
guard. Wire wheel or brush may expand in di-
ameter due to work load and centrifugal
forces.
Additional safety instructions
■ Use suitable detectors to determine if util-
ity 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.
■ If the power supply should be discon-
nected, e. g. due to a power outage or pull-
ing the mains plug, release the On/Off
switch and set it to the Off position. This
prevents uncontrolled restarting.
■ When working stone, use dust extraction.
The vacuum cleaner must be approved for
the extraction of stone dust. Using this
equipment reduces dust-related hazards.
■ Use a cutting guide when cutting stone.
Without sideward guidance, the cutting disc
can jam and cause kickback.
■ Before any work on the machine itself, pull the
mains plug.
■ For work with grinding or cutting discs, the pro-
tection guard 7 must be mounted.
