Personal safety • Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. • Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. • Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Always use the front handle and ensure a good grip on the grinder housing with one hand and the handle with the other hand before proceeding with any work. • Make sure that the disc is not in contact with the work when you start the grinder. • Be careful not to damage the spindle or either of the disc flanges. Damage to these parts could result in disc breakage. • Do not press the spindle lock button whilst the spindle is turning. • Only use good quality grinding and cut off discs.

Avoid flying sparks 30º and ensure they do not hit any inflammable materials, as they are 15º very hot and could cause personal injury or a fire. WARNING. The disc continues to turn for a few seconds even though the switch is turned off. Keep your hands well away from the moving disc. 2. Use your finger or thumb to turn the dial forwards to increase the speed and backwards to decrease it. 3.
