Measured values determined according to
EN 50 144.
Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the prod-
uct are: sound pressure level: 88 dB (A); sound
power level: 101 dB (A).
Wear hearing protection!
The typically weighted acceleration is 5.0 m/s

When using the vibration-dampening auxiliary
handle, the hand-arm vibration at the auxiliary
handle is typically below 2.5 m/s

The machine is intended for cutting, roughing and
brushing metal and stone materials without using
water. For cutting stone, a cutting guide is re-
quired.
For machines with electronic control: With ap-
proved sanding tools, the machine can be used
for sanding and polishing.
Slots in structural walls are subject to the Stand-
ard DIN 1053, Part 1 or country-specific regula-
tions.
These regulations are to be observed under all
circumstances. Before beginning work, consult
the responsible structural engineer, architects or
the construction supervisor.
Working safely with this ma-
chine is possible only when the
operating and safety information
are read completely and the in-
structions contained therein are
strictly followed. In addition, the
general safety notes in the enclosed booklet
must be observed. Before using for the first
time, ask for a practical demonstration.
■ Wear protective glasses and hearing protec-
tion.
■ Wear additional protection equipment for your
safety, such as protective gloves, sturdy
shoes, hard hat and apron.
■ The dust that is produced while working can be
detrimental to health, inflammable or explo-
sive. Suitable safety measures are required.
Examples: Some dusts are regarded as carci-
nogenic. Use suitable dust/chip extraction and
wear a dust respirator.
■ Dust from light alloys can burn or explode. Al-
ways keep the workplace clean, as blends of
materials are particularly dangerous.
■ If the mains cable is damaged or cut through
while working, do not touch the cable but im-
mediately pull the mains plug. Never use the
machine with a damaged cable.
■ Connect machines that are used in the open
via a residual current device (RCD) with an ac-
tuating current of 30 mA maximum. Do not op-
erate the machine in rain or moisture.
■ When working with the machine, always hold it
firmly with both hands and provide for a secure
stance.
■ Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
■ Always direct the cable to the rear away from
the machine.
■ Always switch the machine off and wait until it
has come to a standstill before placing it down.
■ For power outage or when the mains plug is
pulled, unlock the On/Off switch immediately
and turn it to the off position. This prevents un-
controlled restarting.
