Page 4. [. . . ] Flanges for cutting discs are different from the flanges for other abrasive discs. e) Never use worn down abrasive consumables intended for larger electrical power tools. Abrasive consumables intended a) Avoid snagging the cutting disc and do not use too much contact pressure. Overloading the cutting disc increases the load and the tendency of the disc to twist or snag in the cut, making kickback or disc breakage more likely. If the cutting disc is moving away from you at the point of constraint in the workpiece, then, in the event of a kickback, the electrical power tool and the rotating disc may be thrown towards you. c) If the cutting disc jams or you stop work for a while, switch the device off and hold it until the disc comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to pull the still rotating cutting disc out of the cut as this could cause kickback. d) Do not switch on the device if the cutting disc is in the workpiece. Allow the cutting disc to reach full speed before carefully continuing with the cut. Otherwise the disc could snag, jump out of the workpiece or cause a kickback. e) Support boards or workpieces whilst cutting to reduce the risk of kickback caused by a jammed cutting disc. The workpiece must be supported to both sides of the cutting disc and particularly near the cutting disc and at the workpiece edge. f) Be particularly careful when pocket cutting in existing walls or other areas where you cannot see what you are cutting into. The cutting disc plunged into the surface could cut through gas or water pipes, electricity cables or other objects and cause kickback. GB/IE/CY 11 General safety advice for electrical power tools Q Special safety advice for abrading using sandpaper Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for sanding sheet size. Sanding sheets that project beyond the backing pad could cause injury in addition to jamming, tearing of the sheet or kickback. J Do not use over-sized sanding sheets. J J Q Special safety advice for polishing has any loose parts, in particular the fastening cords. Loose fastening cords rotating with the attachment could catch your fingers or become trapped in the workpiece. J J Do not use the polishing bonnet if it J Q Special safety advice for working with wire brushes J a) Bear in mind that wire brushes lose pieces of wire during normal use. Flying pieces of wire can very easily penetrate thin clothing and / or skin. b) Use a guard, if recommended, but make sure that the wire brush does not come into contact with the guard. The diameters of disc brushes and cup brushes can increase due to contact pressure and centripetal forces.
