Safety Warnings

WARNING!

► Read all safety warnings and all instructions.

F

ailure to follow the warnings and instructions

may result in electric shock, ﬁ re and/or serious

injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future

reference.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers

to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or

battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered

or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of ﬂ am-

mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create

sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any

adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power

tools. Unmodiﬁ ed plugs and matching outlets

will reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord

for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power

tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp

edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled

cords increase the risk of electric shock.

4

PWS 125 A1

GB

IE

CY

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use

an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces

the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location

is unavoidable, use a residual current device

(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD

reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a) 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 inﬂ uence of drugs, alcohol

or medication. A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in serious

personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always

wear eye protection. Protective equipment such

as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,

or hearing protection used for appropriate

conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

switch is in the oﬀ -position before connecting

to power source and/or battery pack, picking

up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools

with your ﬁ nger on the switch or energising

power tools that have the switch on invites

accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key

left attached to a rotating part of the power tool

may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control

of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-

lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of

dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure

these are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related

hazards.

4. Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application. The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at

the rate for which it was designed.

b) 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.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source

and/or the battery pack from the power tool

before making any adjustments, changing

accessories, or storing power tools. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of

children and do not allow persons unfamiliar

with the power tool or these instructions to

operate the power tool. Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment

or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts

and any other condition that may aﬀ ect the

power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the

power tool repaired before use. Many accidents

are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges

are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and accessory

tools etc. in accordance with these instructions,

taking into account the working conditions

and the work to be performed. Use of the

power tool for operations diﬀ erent from those

intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualiﬁ ed

repair person using only identical replacement

parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power

tool is maintained.

b) Always arrange for the exchange of the plug

or the power cord to be carried out by the

manufacturer of the appliance or by its ap-

proved customer services. This will ensure that

the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety advice for all uses

General safety advice for grinding, sanding

(with sandpaper), wire brushing, polishing

and disc-cutting:

a) This electrical power tool is intended for use as

a grinding, sanding, wirebrushing, and disc-

cutting machine. Observe all the safety advice,

instructions, information in ﬁ gures and all other

information you received with this device.

If you do not observe the following advice it could

lead to electric shock, ﬁ re and /or serious injury.

b) Do not use any accessory not speciﬁ cally

intended by the manufacturer for this electrical

power tool. Although an accessory may ﬁ t on

your electrical power tool, this does not on its

own guarantee that it can be safely used.

c) The maximum permitted speed of an attach-

ment must be at least as high as the maximum

speed indicated for the electrical power tool.

An accessory rotating faster than its permitted

speed could disintegrate or ﬂ y oﬀ .

d) The external diameter and the thickness of the

attachment must be compatible with the dimen-

sions of your electrical power tool. Attachments

that are not dimensionally compatible cannot be

adequately guarded or controlled.

e) Grinding discs, ﬂ anges, grinding wheels or

other accessories must ﬁ t exactly on to the

spindle of your electrical power tool. Attach-

ments that do not exactly ﬁ t on the spindle turn

unevenly, vibrate severely and could lead to

loss of control.

f) Do not use damaged attachments. Before

every use check attachments such as grind-

ing discs for loose fragments and cracks,

grinding wheels for cracks, deterioration or

excessive wear and wire brushes for loose or

broken wires. If the electrical power tool or

attachment is dropped, inspect for damage

or change the attachment for an undamaged

one. When you have inspected and inserted

the attachment, position yourself and by-

standers away from the plane of the rotating

attachment and run the device at maximum

speed for one minute. Damaged attachments

will usually break apart during this test.

g) Wear personal protective equipment. Use

a full face visor, safety goggles or safety

glasses, depending on the application. Wear

a dust mask, hearing protectors, safety

gloves or special apron capable of stopping

particles of the grinding medium or work-

piece, as appropriate for the task. Eyes must

be protected from the ﬂ ying debris which can

arise from some operations. Dust or breathing

masks must be capable of ﬁ ltering out the dust

generated by the application. Prolonged expo-

sure to loud noise can lead to hearing loss.

h) Keep bystanders at a safe distance from your

work area. Anyone entering the work area

must wear personal protective equipment.

Fragments of the workpiece or of a broken at-

tachment could ﬂ y oﬀ and cause injury beyond

the immediate working area.

i) Hold the device by the insulated handle sur-

faces when you are undertaking work where

there is the danger of the attachment striking

hidden electricity cables or the device’s mains

lead. Contact with a live wire could cause

metal parts of the device to become live and

lead to electric shock.

j) Keep the power cord away from rotating

attachments. If you lose control of the device the

mains lead may become severed or trapped and

your hand or arm may be pulled into the rotating

attachment.

k) Never lay the electrical power tool down until

after the attachment has come to a complete

standstill. The rotating attachment may snag

when it comes into contact with the surface and

cause you to lose control of the device.

l) Do not have the electrical power tool running

while you are carrying it. Your clothing could

become trapped by unintentional contact with

the rotating attachment and the tool could be

pulled into your body.

m) Clean the ventilation slots on your electrical

power tool regularly. The motor’s fan draws

dust into the housing. A build-up of metal dust

could give rise to an electrical hazard.

n) Never use the electrical power tool near in-

ﬂ ammable materials. Sparks could ignite these

materials.

CY

o) Do not use attachments that require the use

of coolants. The use of water or other liquid

coolants could result in electric shock.

Safety advice relating to kickback

Kickback is the sudden reaction to a pinched or

snagged rotating attachment, such as a grinding

disc, grinding pad, wire brush etc. Pinching or

snagging results in the rotating attachment coming

to an abrupt stop. This causes the electrical power

tool (if not controlled) to move in the opposite di-

rection to the direction of rotation of the attachment

at the point of constraint.

If, for example, a grinding disc is pinched or snags

in a workpiece, this can cause the edge of the

grinding disc to penetrate the workpiece, become

trapped there and either free itself or kickback.

The grinding disc moves towards or away from the

operator, depending on the direction of movement

of the disc at the point of constraint. The grinding

disc could also break.

Kickback occurs as a result of incorrect use or mis-

use of the electrical power tool. It can be prevented

by taking the appropriate precautions as described

below.

a) Maintain a ﬁ rm grip on the electrical power

tool and position your body and arms to al-

low you to resist kickback forces. Always use

the auxiliary handle, if provided, to exercise

the greatest possible control over kickback

forces or reaction torques as the device builds

up to full speed. By taking suitable precautions

the operator can control kickback and reaction

forces.

b) Do not place your hands near a rotating

attachment. If kickback occurs the attachment

could move over your hand.

c) Avoid positioning your body in the area into

which the electrical power tool would move in

the event of a kickback. A kickback moves the

electrical power tool in the opposite direction to

the direction of movement of the grinding disc

at the point of constraint.

d) Work particularly carefully in the area of

corners, sharp edges etc. to avoid the attach-

ment bouncing or snagging on the work-

piece. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have

a tendency to snag the rotating attachment. This

causes loss of control or kickback.

e) Do not use saw-chain woodcarving discs

or toothed discs. Such attachments create

frequent kickback and loss of control of the

electrical power tool.

Special safety advice relating to

grinding and disc-cutting

a) Always use the guard designed for the

type of abrasive consumable you are using.

Always use abrasive consumables approved

for use with your electrical power tool.

Abrasive consumables not approved for use with

your electrical power tool cannot be adequately

guarded and are unsafe.

b) To ensure the highest level of operational

safety, the disc guard cover must be attached

to the electrical power tool and set in such

a way that the smallest possible area of the

abrasive consumable is exposed to the opera-

tor. The disc guard cover is there to protect the

operator from pieces breaking oﬀ and acciden-

tal contact with the abrasive consumable.

c) Abrasive consumables must be used only for

their recommended purposes, For example:

never grind with the side face of a cutting

disc. Cutting discs are intended for removing

material using the edge of the disc. Sideways

forces on these abrasive consumables can

cause them to break.

d) Always use an undamaged mounting ﬂ ange

of the correct size and shape for your se-

lected grinding disc. Suitable ﬂ anges support

the grinding disc and reduce the chance of it

breaking. Flanges for cutting discs are diﬀ erent

from the ﬂ anges for other abrasive discs.

e) Never use worn down abrasive consumables

intended for larger electrical power tools.

Abrasive consumables intended for larger elec-

trical power tools are not designed for the faster

rotational speeds of these smaller electrical

power tools and could break.

7

PWS 125 A1

GB

IE

CY

Further special safety

advice for disc-cutting

a) Avoid snagging the cutting disc and do not use

too much contact pressure. Do not attempt to

make excessively deep cuts. 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.

b) Avoid the area in front of or behind the rotat-

ing cutting disc. 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 at-

tempt to pull the still rotating cutting disc out

of the cut as this could cause kickback. Deter-

mine and rectify the reason for the jamming.

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. Large workpieces may

bend under their own weight. 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 can-

not 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.

Special safety advice for

abrading using sandpaper

■ Do not use over-sized sanding sheets. 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.

Special safety advice for polishing

■ Do not use the polishing bonnet if it has

any loose parts, in particular the fastening

cords. Tuck the fastening cords away or trim

them. Loose fastening cords rotating with the

attachment could catch your ﬁ ngers or become

trapped in the workpiece.

Special safety advice for working with

wire brushes

a) Bear in mind that wire brushes lose pieces of

wire during normal use. Do not overload the

wires by applying too much pressure. 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.

Safety advice for angle grinders

■ DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Do not

operate the device if the mains lead or mains

plug is damaged.

■ DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Do not

touc

h the mains lead if it becomes damaged

■ Make sure that abrasive consumables and

tools are attached in accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions and advice.

Otherwise they could become detached from

the device and result in injury and / or damage

to property.

■ Ensure that any spacers supplied and

r

equired for the use of certain abrasive con-

sumables and tools are installed.

■ Do not use separate reducing bushes or

adap

ters in order to make grinding discs with

a larger bore ﬁ t.

■ When using abrasive consumables and tools

wit

tread is long enough for the spindle length.

Otherwise the grinding discs could become

detached from the device and result in injury

and / or damage to property.

■ Do not allow the end of the spindle to contact the

base of t

he hole in the abrasive consumable.

■ Do not work in areas where there may be

concealed electr

icity cables or gas or water

pipes. Use a suitable detector or ask your

local utility service providers. Contact with

electricity cables can lead to ﬁ re or electric

shock. Damaging a gas pipe can lead to an

explosion. Penetration of a water pipe can lead

to property damage or to electric shock.

WARNING! NOXIOUS FUMES!

► Working with harmful / noxious dusts represents

a risk to the health of the per

son operating the

device and to anyone near the work area.

■ When working on metal for longer periods,

connect t

he tool to a suitable external extrac-

tion system.

■ Ensure that there is adequate ventilation

when working on plastic, paint, varnish etc.

■ Do not soak the materials or the surface you

are about to work on with liquids containing

solvents.

■ DANGER OF INJURY! Wear close-ﬁ tting

clo

thing and keep long hair inside a hairnet

or suitable headwear.

■ For safety reasons this device must always be

used with the auxiliary handle in place.

■ The adjustable disc guard cover

must al-

ways be in place when working with roughing,

grinding or cutting discs. Otherwise there could

be danger of injury.

■ Use the vacuum dust extraction facility if your

w

ork generates high amounts of dust. Use suction

devices particularly approved for the purpose.

■ Use permitted consumables and tools only.

Chec

k that the speed given on the discs is great-

er or equal to the rated speed of the device.

■ Take note of the direction of rotation and

always hold the device in such a way that the

sparks and grinding debris are thrown away

from your body. Otherwise there could be

danger of injury.

■ Make sure that the dimensions of the disc are

suitable for the device and that the disc is of

a type that ﬁ ts properly on to the mounting

ﬂ ange .

Working procedures

NOTE

► Grinding tools should only be used for the

r

ecommended applications. Otherwise, they

can break, be damaged or cause injuries.

Rough grinding:

Never use cutting discs for rough

grinding!

■ Move the angle grinder with moderate pres-

sur

e back and forth over the workpiece.

■ For soft material, move the rough grinding

disc at a ﬂ at angle over the workpiece; for

hard material at a slightly steeper angle.

Abrasive cutting:

Never use rough grinding discs for

cutting!

■ Use only tested ﬁ bre-reinforced cutting or

g

rinding discs that are approved for a circum-

ferential speed of no less than 80 m/s.

CAUTION!

The grinder continues running after being turned

oﬀ . Do not try to brake it by applying lateral

counterpressure.

■ Immobilise the workpiece securely. Use clamps/

vices to hold the workpiece ﬁ rmly in place.

This is much safer than simply holding it in your

hand.

■ Always switch oﬀ the appliance before putting

it away and wait for the appliance to come to

a complete standstill.

■ Release the ON/OFF switch immediately in

t

he event of a power failure or when the plug

is pulled out. Move it into the OFF position.

This prevents an uncontrolled restart.

■ Use the appliance only for dry cutting or

sanding.

■ The additional handle

must be mounted on

the appliance for all work.

■ Materials containing asbestos may NOT be

pr

ocessed. Asbestos is a known carcinogen.

Tip! This symbol indicates proper

behaviour!

DANGER! GUIDE THE APPLIANCE

THROUGH THE WORKPIECE IN

REVERSE ROTATION.

► In the opposite direction there is a risk of

kickback. The appliance can be pushed out

of the cut.

■ Always switch the appliance on before ap-

plying it to the workpiece. After completing

the task, lift the appliance from the work piece

and then switch it oﬀ .

■ Always hold the appliance ﬁ rmly with two

hands while w

orking. Ensure that your stance

is secure and stable.

■ For an optimum grinding eﬀ ect, move the ap-

pliance e

venly at an angle of 15° to 30° (be-

tween grinding disc and workpiece) backwards

and forwards.

■ When working on angled surfaces, do not

e

xert great force on the workpiece. If the

rotational speed drops signiﬁ cantly, you must

reduce the pressure exerted to allow safe and

eﬀ ective working. If the appliance suddenly

brakes completely or jams, it must be switched

oﬀ immediately.

■ Cutting: Work with a moderate feed and do

no

t tilt the cutting disc.

■ Roughing and cutting discs become very

ho

t – let them cool down completely before

touching them.

■ Never use the appliance for purposes other

t

han the ones for which it was designed.

■ Always make sure that the appliance is

tur

ned oﬀ before plugging it into the wall

socket.

■ In case of danger, remove the plug from the

soc

ket immediately. Ensure that the appliance

and the power socket are easily and quickly

accessible in the event of an emergency.

■ Always remove the plug from the power

soc

ket during work breaks, when adjusting

the appliance and when it is no longer in use.

The appliance must always be kept clean, dry

and free from oil or grease.

■ Remain alert at all times! Always pay attention

to what y

ou are doing and act with common

sense. Never use the appliance when you are

distracted or don’t feel well.
