regulations, the assembly instructions and the operating
instructions to be found in this Manual. All persons who use
and service the machine have to be acquainted with this
Manual and must be informed about its potential hazards.
Children and infirm people must not use this tool. Children
should be supervised at all times if they are in the area in
which the tool is being used. It is also imperative that you
observe the accident prevention regulations in force in your
area. The same applies for general rules of occupational
health and safety.
WARNING. When using power tools, basic safety
precautions should always be taken to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock and personal injury. Also, please
read and heed the advice given in the additional important
safety instructions.
1. Keep the work area clean and tidy. Cluttered work
areas and benches invite accidents and injury.
2. Consider the environment in which you are working.
Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep
the work area well lit. Do not expose power tools to rain.
Do not use power tools in the presence of flammable
liquids or gases.
3. Keep visitors away from the work area. All visitors and
onlookers, especially children and infirm persons, should
be kept well away from where you are working. Do not
let others in the vicinity make contact with the tool or
extension cord.
4. Store tools safely. When not in use, tools should be
locked up out of reach.
5. Do not force the tool. The tool will do the job better and
safer working at the rate for which it was designed.
6. Use the correct tool for the job. Do not force small
tools or attachments to do the job best handled by a
heavier duty tool. Never use a tool for a purpose for
which it was not intended.
7. Dress correctly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves
and non-slip footwear are recommended when working
outdoors. If you have long hair, wear a protective hair
covering.
8. Use safety accessories. Safety glasses and earmuffs
should always be worn. A face or dust mask is also
required if the sanding operation creates dust.
9. Do not abuse the power cord. Never pull the cord to
disconnect the tool from the power point. Keep the cord
away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
10. Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vise to hold
the workpiece. It is safer than using your hand and frees
both hands to operate the tool.
11. Do not overreach. Keep your footing secure and
balanced at all times.
12. Look after your tools. Keep tools sharp and clean for
better and safer performance. Follow the instructions
regarding lubrication and accessory changes. Inspect
tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have them
repaired by an authorised service facility. Inspect
extension cords periodically and replace them if
damaged. Keep tool handles dry, clean and free
from oil and grease.
13. Disconnect idle tools. Switch off the power and
disconnect the plug from the power point before
servicing, when changing accessories and when the tool
is not in use.
14. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Check to see
that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the
tool before switching on.
15. Avoid unintentional starting. Always check that the
switch is in the OFF position before plugging in the tool
to the power supply. Do not carry a plugged in tool with
your finger on the switch.
16. Use outdoor rated extension cords. When a tool
is used outdoors, use only extension cords that are
intended for outdoor use and are so marked.

17. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate a power tool when you are tired.
18. Check for damaged parts. Before using a tool, check
that there are no damaged parts. If a part is slightly
damaged, carefully determine if it will operate properly
and perform its intended function. Check for alignment
of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, proper mounting and any other conditions
that may affect the operation of the tool. A part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an
authorised service facility, unless otherwise indicated in
this Instruction Manual.
Defective switches must be replaced by an authorised

Additional safety rules for cut off saws
WARNINGS.
Always wear eye protection.
Do not use cutting wheels, the maximum permissible speed
of which is below the RPM value stated on the tool.
• Check the cut off disc before mounting it into the saw.
Strike the disc with a wooden handle whilst balancing the
disc on your finger. Listen for the ring. If the tone is dull,
do not use the disc. It may be cracked.
• When the disc is installed, stand to one side, out of line
with the disc, and run the tool for at least a minute to
make sure that it is not faulty. Always stay out of line of
the disc when using the saw.
• Do not use a cut off disc marked with a lower RPM
than that of the no load speed shown on the rating plate
of the tool.
• Check that the mains voltage matches that given on
the rating plate before plugging in the tool.
• Ensure that the workpiece is held tight in the vise.
• When cutting through long material, ensure that it is
supported properly by packing up each end to match
the height of the vise.
• Use only good quality cut off discs as poor quality discs
tend to glaze up which can cause unnecessary load on
the motor and resulting damage.
• Let the disc do the cutting at a reasonable feed. If too
much pressure is applied the motor will be overloaded
causing the disc to slow resulting in inefficient cutting and
possible damage to the motor.
• When operating the cut off saw, use safety equipment
including safety goggles or shield, ear protection, dust
mask and protective clothing including safety gloves.
WARNING. Before connecting a tool to a power source
(mains switch power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure
that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater
than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to
the user, as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not
plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less
than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual will
be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the
manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury
resulting from such cases of misuse. The manufacturer shall
not be liable for any changes made to the tool nor for any
damage resulting from such changes.
