Parkside PWS 125 A1 manual Safety advice for all uses

General safety advice for electrical power tools

intended to prevent you from unintentionally starting the device.

d)When not in use always ensure that electrical power tools are kept out of reach of children. Do not let anyone use the device if he or she is not familiar with it or has not read the instructions and advice. Electrical power tools are dan- gerous when they are used by inexperienced people.

e)Look after the device carefully. Check that moving parts are working prop- erly and move freely. Check for any parts that are broken or damaged enough to detrimentally affect the functioning of the device. Have dam- aged parts repaired before you use the device. Many accidents have their origins in poorly maintained electrical power tools.

f)Keep cutting tools clean and sharp. Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.

g)Use the electrical power tool, accesso- ries, inserted tools etc. in accordance with these instructions and advice, and the stipulations drawn up for this par- ticular type of device. In doing this, take into account the working conditions and the task in hand. The use of electrical power tools for purposes other than those in- tended can lead to dangerous situations.

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, wire- brushing, and disc-cutting machine.

Observe all the safety advice, instruc- tions, information in figures and all other information you received with this device. If you do not observe the following

advice it could lead to electric shock, fire and / or serious injury.

b)Normative statement / advice for this tool is not applicable.

c)Do not use any accessory not specifi- cally intended by the manufacturer for this electrical power tool. Although an accessory may fit on your electrical power tool, this does not on its own guarantee that it can be safely used.

d)The maximum permitted speed of an attachment 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 fly off.

e)The external diameter and the thickness of the attachment must be compatible with the dimensions of your electrical power tool. Attachments that are not dimen- sionally compatible cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.

f)Grinding discs, flanges, grinding wheels or other accessories must fit exactly on to the spindle of your elec- trical power tool. Attachments that do not exactly fit on the spindle turn unevenly, vibrate severely and could lead to loss of control.

g)Do not use damaged attachments. Before every use check attachments such as grinding discs for loose frag- ments 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 at- tachment, 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.

h)Wear personal protective equipment. Use a full face vi-

sor, safety goggles or safety
