3. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read these safety instructions carefully, remember them and keep
them in a safe place
WARNING! When using electric machinery and power tools, it is important to abide by
and adhere to the following safety instructions for reasons of protection against injury caused
by electric current, injury of persons and risk of starting fires. The term “power tools” used
in the instructions below refers to power tools that are plugged into a power supply (by a
power cord) as well as tools running on a battery pack (cordless). Keep all warnings and
instructions for further use.
Work environment
Keep the work area clean and well lit. Untidiness and dark places on the job site are usually
causes of accidents. Store tools that are not used.

EN 6 Machine description and items delivered | General safety instructions

FDBP 200901-E
Do not use power tools in an environment where there is risk of starting a fire or explosion;
this refers to places where there are flammable liquids, gases or dust. Sparks form on the
power tool’s commutator, which can cause dust or fume ignition.
When using power tools, unauthorized persons, especially children, should be denied entry to
the job site! In case you are interrupted, you can lose control of the current activity. In any
case, do not leave the power tool without supervision. Prevent animals from approaching the
equipment.
Electrical safety
The power tool’s power plug must correspond to the power outlet. Never alter the plug in any
way. If the tool’s plug has a safety peg, never use an adapter of any kind. Undamaged plugs
and corresponding outlets prevent the risk of injury by electric current. If the power cord is
damaged, it must be replaced by a new power cord that can be obtained from an authorized
service centre or the importer.
Avoid bodily contact with grounded items, e.g. piping, radiators, kitchen ranges and
refrigerators. The risk of injury by electric current is greater if your body is connected to the
ground.
Do not expose power tools to rain, moisture or dampness. Never touch power tools with wet
hands. Never wash power tools with running water and never submerse them into water.
Do not use the power cord for any other purpose than originally intended. Never carry or pull
the power tools by the power cord. Do not pull the plug out of the outlet by pulling on the cord.
Avoid mechanical damage to the power cord by sharp or hot objects.
Power tools were manufactured exclusively for the AC power supply. Always check if the
electrical voltage corresponds to the data printed on the tool’s serial number label.
Never work with a tool that has a damaged power cord or plug, or that has fallen on the
ground and is damaged in any way.
In the case of using an extension cord, always check that its technical parameters
correspond to the data printed on the tool’s serial number label. If the power tool is used
outdoors, use an extension cord that is appropriate for exterior use. When using an extension
cable drum, the cord must be unwound to prevent the cord from overheating.
If the power tool is used in moist areas or outdoors, it is permitted to use it only if it is plugged
into an electric circuit with a residual current device ≤30 mA. Using a circuit with an RCD
lowers the risk of injury by electric current.
Grasp hand power tools at the designated isolated grip areas because, during operation,
one may come into contact with the cutting or drilling fittings with a hidden conductor or with
the power cord.

Personal safety
When using a power tool, be careful and alert, pay special attention to the activity you are
doing. Concentrate on your work. Do not work with power tools if you are tired or if you
are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. When using power tools, even a
momentary lapse in attentiveness can lead to severe personal injury. Do not eat, drink or
smoke while working with power tools.
Use protective gear. Always use eye protection. Use protective gear corresponding to the type
of work you are doing. Protective gear such as respirators, safety shoes with antiskid
treatment, head protection or ear protection, used in accordance with working conditions,
lower the risk of personal injury.
Avoid unintentional operation of tools. Do not carry tools that are plugged into the electric grid
with your finger on the switch or release trigger. Before connecting the tool to a power supply,
make sure that the switch or release trigger are in the “off” position. Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging the tool into an outlet with the switch in the “on” position can
cause serious injury.
Before turning tools on, remove all adjustment wrenches and tools. The adjustment wrench or
tool that stays connected to the rotating part of the power tool can cause personal injury.
Always stand firmly and keep your balance. Work only in places that you can reach safely.
Never overestimate your own strength. Do not use power tools if you are tired.
Dress appropriately. Use working clothes. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Make sure
that your hair, clothing, gloves or other body parts do not come overly close to rotating or
heated parts of the power tool.
Connect the equipment to the dust exhaust. If the tool offers the possibility to connect
equipment for capturing dust or dust suction, make sure that it is properly connected and
used. Using this equipment can reduce danger resulting from dust.
Firmly fasten the workpiece. Use a carpenter’s clamp or vice to secure the piece you will be
cutting.
Do not use power tools if you are under the influence of alcohol, drugs, medication or other
narcotics or addictive substances.
This equipment is not intended to be used by persons with limited physical, sensory or mental
abilities (including children) or persons with insufficient experience and knowledge, unless
they are supervised or received instructions to use the equipment from a person responsible
for his/her safety. Children must be supervised in order to ensure that they are not playing
with the equipment.
Using power tools and their maintenance
Always disconnect the power tool from the electric grid if there is any problem during work,
before every cleaning or maintenance, during every shift and after finishing work! Never work
with power tools if they are damaged in any way.
If the tool starts emitting abnormal noises or odours, immediately stop working.
EN 8 General safety instructions

FDBP 200901-E
Do not overload power tools. The power tool will function better and more safely if it operates
at speeds for which it was designed. Use correct tools that are designated for the given
activity. The correct tool works better and more safely.
Do not use power tools that cannot be turned on safely and cannot be turned on and off
with a control switch. Using this type of tool is dangerous. Faulty switches must be repaired at
a certified service centre.
Disconnect the tool from the power supply before you start setting, changing accessories or
maintenance. This measure will prevent the risk of accidental start-up.
Store unused power tools so that they are out of the reach of children and unauthorized
persons. Power tools in the hands of inexperienced users can be dangerous. Store power
tools in a dry and safe place.
Keep power tools in good condition. Regularly check the setting of moving parts and their
movability. Check if the protective cover or other parts that can limit the safe functioning of the
power tool are not damaged. If the tool is damaged, ensure its proper repair before the next
use. Many injuries are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained and sharpened tools make work
easier, limit the risk of injury and work with them is much more easily controlled. Using other
accessories than those listed in the instruction manual can cause damage to the tool and
can cause injury.
Use power tools, accessories, work tools, etc. in accordance with these instructions and in a
way that is described for the specific power tool and with regard to the given working
conditions and the type of job. Using tools for other purposes than those intended can lead to
dangerous situations.

4. SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety warning for works such as grinding, surfacing, wire brushing,
polishing or abrasive cutting
WARNING! Before use, please read these safety instructions and keep them
in a safe place.
Upon failure to follow the instructions specified in this manual, there is a risk of injury.
Angle grinder conforms to applicable technical regulations and standards.
These electro-mechanical tools are intended for use as grinder. It is necessary to read
all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications for the electro-
mechanical tools. Non-compliance with the below mentioned instructions can lead to
injury by electrical current, fire and/or serious injury.
Accessories not specifically designed and recommended by the tool's manufacturer
may not be used. The mere fact, that an accessory can be connected to your tool does
not guarantee its safe operation.
The nominal speed of the accessory has to be at least equal the maximal speed marked
on the tool. Accessories, operating at higher speeds than its nominal speed, can break
and fall apart.
The outer diameter and thickness of the accessory has to be within the limits of the
nominal range for particular electromechanical tools. The accessories of incorrect size
cannot be sufficiently guarded or controlled.
It is prohibited to use damaged accessories.
Personal protective equipment has to be used. According to condition a face shield or
safety goggles have to be used. Use dust mask, hearing protection, gloves and work apron,
capable of arresting small fragments of the abrasive material or work piece, as
appropriate. Eye protection has to be capable of arresting flying fragments, generated
during various work activities. Dust mask or respirator has to be able of filtering particles,
generated during a particular activity. Long-term exposure to high-intensity noise can cause
loss of hearing.
EN 10 General safety instructions| Specific safety instructions

Specific safety instructions
FDBP 200901-E
Bystanders have to keep a safe distance from the working area. Everyone entering the
working area has to use personal protective equipment. Fragment of the work piece or
damaged accessories may fly away and cause injury even outside the immediate working
area.
During work, during which the tool can touch a hidden wiring or its own power supply, the
electromechanical tool has to be held by the insulated holding surfaces. Contact of the tool
with a "live" wire can cause the metallic parts of the electromechanical tool to become "live"
and may cause an injury by electric current.
Mobile power supply has to be placed outside the reach of the rotating tool. In case the
operator looses control, the mobile power supply can be cut or ground through, and a hand
or arm of the operator may be dragged to the rotating tool.
Electromechanical tool may not be put down before the tool stops completely. Rotating tool
may get caught on a surface and may pull the tool out of the operator's control.
Electromechanical tool may not be started while the tool is carried by the operator. Rotating
tool may, in case of a accidental contact, catch clothing and be pulled to the body.
Ventilation holes of the tool have to the cleaned regularly. The motor ventilator brags dust
into the casing and excessive accumulation of metallic dust can cause an electric hazard.
Work with electromechanical tool in the vicinity of flammable materials is prohibited.
Ignition of the materials by sparks may occur.
Use of accessories requiring cooling by liquid is prohibited. Use of water or other coolants
may cause injury or death by electric current.
Safety warning for works such as grinding, surfacing, wire brushing, polishing
or abrasive cutting
Kick-back is a sudden reaction on pinching or seizing of a rotating disk, support block,
brush or other accessory. Pinching or seizing causes sudden stoppage of a rotating tool,
which subsequently causes, that uncontrolled tool moves in the opposite direction to the
rotation of the tool in the moment of seizing.
Kick-back is a consequence of the use of electromechanical tools and/or incorrect working
procedures of conditions and it can be prevented by the compliance with the below
described safety measures.
The tool has to be held firmly while maintaining a correct position of the body and arms to
resist the forces of the kick-back. Auxiliary handle has to be used if the tool is fitted with it,
for maximum control of the kick-back or reaction torque when starting the tool. The
operator can control the reaction torques and the kick-back forces if the correct safety
measures are observed.
11EN

Do not put hands in the vicinity of the rotating tool. The kick-back of the tool may throw the
operators arm away.
Do not stand in the area, into which the tool might be thrown by the kick-back. Kick-back will
throw the tool in the opposite direction to the movement of the disk at the moment of
seizure.
Pay special attention to the machining of corners, sharp edges etc. Prevent skipping and
seizure of the tool. Corners, sharp edges or skipping tends to cause seizure of a rotating
tool and loss of control or kick-back.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions while selecting the sand paper. Large sand
paper, which extends over the grinding disk, represents a risk of tearing and may
cause seizure, tearing of the disk or a kick-back.
