Handling hazardous dusts
For work procedures with this power tool where mate-
rial is removed, dusts develop that can be hazardous to
one’s health.
Contact with or inhaling some dust types, e. g. asbestos
and asbestos-containing materials, lead-containing coat-
ings, metal, some wood types, minerals, silicate particles
from materials containing stone, paint solvents, wood
preservatives, antifouling paints for vessels, can trigger
allergic reactions to the operator or bystanders and/or
lead to respiratory infections, cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. The risk from inhaling dusts
depends on the exposition. Use dust extraction matched
appropriately for the developing dust, as well as personal
protective equipment and provide for good ventilation of
the workplace. Leave the processing of asbestos-contain-
ing materials to specialists.
Wood and light-metal dust, hot mixtures of sanding dust
and chemical materials can self-ignite under unfavourable
conditions or cause an explosion. Avoid sparking in the
direction of the dust collector as well as overheating of
the power tool and the materials being sanded, empty the
dust collector/container in time, observe the material
manufacturer’s working instructions, as well as the rele-
vant regulations in your country for the materials being
worked.
Operating Instructions.
The self-start lock prevents the angle grinder (see Table)
from automatically restarting again, even after a brief
interruption of the power supply, e. g., from a pulled
mains plug.
Angle grinders with electronics (see Table) are equipped
with overload and blocking protection. In case of over-
load or blocking of the application tool, the power supply
is interrupted. In this case, switch the power tool off,
remove it from the work piece and check the application
tool. Afterwards, switch the power tool on again.
Press the locking button only when the motor is
stopped (see page 6).
Turning the machine head:
Carefully turn the machine head to the new position (see
page 8) without removing it from the housing.

ing conditions, it is possible for conductive
