Read all safety warnings

and all instructions. Failure

to follow the warnings and instructions may

result in electric shock, fire 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

flammable 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. Unmodified 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.

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 Ground

Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected

supply. Use of an GFCI 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 influence 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 finger

on the switch or energizing 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 jewelry. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from moving

parts. Loose clothes, jewelry 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.

Power Tool-Specific Safety Warnings

Safety Warnings Common for Grinding,

Sanding, Wire Brushing, and Abrasive

Cutting-Off Operations:

a) This power tool is intended to function

as a grinder, sander, wire brush or cut-

off tool. Read all safety warnings,

instructions, illustrations and

specifications provided with this power

tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed

below may result in electric shock, fire

and/or serious injury.

b) This power tool is not recommended for

polishing. Operations for which the power

tool was not designed may create a hazard

and cause personal injury.

c) Do not use accessories which are not

specifically designed and recommended

by the tool manufacturer. Just because

the accessory can be attached to your

power tool, it does not assure safe

operation.

d) The rated speed of the accessory must

be at least equal to the maximum speed

marked on the power tool. Accessories

running faster than their RATED SPEED

can break and fly apart.

e) The outside diameter and the thickness

of your accessory must be within the

capacity rating of your power tool.

Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be

adequately guarded or controlled.

f) The arbor size of wheels, flanges,

backing pads or any other accessory

must properly fit the spindle of the

power tool. Accessories with arbor holes

that do not match the mounting hardware of

the power tool will run out of balance,

vibrate excessively and may cause loss of

control.

g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before

each use inspect the accessory such as

abrasive wheels for chips and cracks,

backing pad for cracks, tear or excess

wear, wire brush for loose or cracked

wires. If power tool or accessory is

dropped, inspect for damage or install an

undamaged accessory. After inspecting

and installing an accessory, position

yourself and bystanders away from the

plane of the rotating accessory and run

the power tool at maximum no-load

speed for one minute. Damaged

accessories will normally break apart during

this test time.

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 affect 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 tool

bits 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 different from those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

5) Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a

qualified repair person using only

identical replacement parts. This will

ensure that the safety of the power tool is

maintained.

BM 1609929Y07 10-10:BM 1609929Y07 10-10 1/18/11 10:05 AM Page 3

h) Wear personal protective equipment.

Depending on application, use face

shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.

As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing

protectors, gloves and workshop apron

capable of stopping small abrasive or

workpiece fragments. The eye protection

must be capable of stopping flying debris

generated by various operations. The eye

protection must be capable of stopping flying

debris generated by various operations. The

dust mask or respirator must be capable of

filtrating particles generated by your

operation. Prolonged exposure to high

intensity noise may cause hearing loss.

i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away

from work area. Anyone entering the

work area must wear personal protective

equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a

broken accessory may fly away and cause

injury beyond immediate area of operation.

j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces only, when performing an

operation where the cutting accessory

may contact hidden wiring or its own

cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live”

wire may make exposed metal parts of the

power tool “live” and shock the operator.

k) Position the cord clear of the spinning

accessory. If you lose control, the cord may

be cut or snagged and your hand or arm

may be pulled into the spinning accessory.

l) Never lay the power tool down until the

accessory has come to a complete stop.

The spinning accessory may grab the

surface and pull the power tool out of your

control.

m)Do not run the power tool while carrying

it at your side. Accidental contact with the

spinning accessory could snag your

clothing, pulling the accessory into your

body.

n) Regularly clean the power tool’s air

vents. The motor’s fan will draw the dust

inside the housing and excessive

accumulation of powdered metal may cause

electrical hazards.

o) Do not operate the power tool near

flammable materials. Sparks could ignite

these materials.

p) Do not use accessories that require

liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid

coolants may result in electrocution or

shock.

Kickback and Related Warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or

snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or

any other accessory. Pinching or snagging

causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory

which in turn causes the uncontrolled power

tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the

accessory’s rotation at the point of the binding.

For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged

or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the

wheel that is entering into the pinch point can

dig into the surface of the material causing the

wheel to climb out or kickout. The wheel may

either jump toward or away from the operator,

depending on direction of the wheel’s

movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive

wheels may also break under these conditions.

Kickback is the result of power tool misuse

and/or incorrect operating procedures or

conditions and can be avoided by taking proper

precautions as given below.

a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool

and position your body and arm to allow

you to resist kickback forces. Always use

auxiliary handle, if provided, for

maximum control over kickback or

torque reaction during start-up. The

operator can control torque reactions or

kickback forces, if proper precautions are

taken.

b) Never place your hand near the rotating

accessory. Accessory may kickback over

your hand.

c) Do not position your body in the area

where power tool will move if kickback

occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in

direction opposite to the wheel’s movement

at the point of snagging.

d) Use special care when working corners,

sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and

snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp

edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag

the rotating accessory and cause loss of

control or kickback.

e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving

blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades

create frequent kickback and loss of control.

Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding and

Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:

a) Use only wheel types that are

recommended for your power tool and

the specific guard designed for the

selected wheel. Wheels for which the

-4-

BM 1609929Y07 10-10:BM 1609929Y07 10-10 1/18/11 10:05 AM Page 4

power tool was not designed cannot be

adequately guarded and are unsafe.

b) The guard must be securely attached to

the power tool and positioned for

maximum safety, so the least amount of

wheel is exposed towards the operator.

The guard helps to protect operator from

broken wheel fragments and accidental

contact with wheel.

c) Wheels must be used only for

recommended applications. For

example: do not grind with the side of

cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are

intended for peripheral grinding, side forces

applied to these wheels may cause them to

shatter.

d) Always use undamaged wheel flanges

that are of correct size and shape for

your selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges

support the wheel thus reducing the

possibility of wheel breakage. Flanges for

cut-off wheels may be different from grinding

wheel flanges.

e) Do not use worn down wheels from

larger power tools. Wheel intended for

larger power tool is not suitable for the

higher speed of a smaller tool and may

burst.

Additional Safety Warnings Specific for

Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:

Do not attempt to cut large stock or sheets

of metal as this machine is not designed to

be a dedicated cut-off machine.

a) Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply

excessive pressure. Do not attempt to

make an excessive depth of cut.

Overstressing the wheel increases the

loading and susceptibility to twisting or

binding of the wheel in the cut and the

possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.

b) Do not position your body in line with

and behind the rotating wheel. When the

wheel, at the point of operation, is moving

away from your body, the possible kickback

may propel the spinning wheel and the

power tool directly at you.

c) When wheel is binding or when

interrupting a cut for any reason, switch

off the power tool and hold the power

tool motionless until the wheel comes to

a complete stop. Never attempt to

remove the cut-off wheel from the cut

while the wheel is in motion otherwise

kickback may occur. Investigate and take

corrective action to eliminate the cause of

wheel binding.

d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the

workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed

and carefully reenter the cut. The wheel

may bind, walk up or kickback if the power

tool is restarted in the workpiece.

e) Support panels or any oversized

workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel

pinching and kickback. Large workpieces

tend to sag under their own weight.

Supports must be placed under the

workpiece near the line of cut and near the

edge of the workpiece on both sides of the

wheel.

f) Use extra caution when making a

“pocket cut” into existing walls or other

blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut

gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or

objects that can cause kickback.

Do not use type 1 abrasive wheels designed

for straight grinding.

Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding

Operations:

a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding

disc paper. Follow manufacturer’s

recommendations, when selecting

sanding paper. Larger sanding paper

extending beyond the sanding pad presents

a laceration hazard and may cause

snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.

Safety Warnings Specific for Wire Brushing

Operations:

a) Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by

the brush even during ordinary

operation. Do not overstress the wires

by applying excessive load to the brush.

The wire bristles can easily penetrate light

clothing and/or skin.

b) If the use of a guard is recommended for

wire brushing, do not allow any

interference of the wire wheel or brush

with the guard. Wire wheel or brush may

expand in diameter due to work load and

centrifugal forces.

-5-

BM 1609929Y07 10-10:BM 1609929Y07 10-10 1/18/11 10:05 AM Page 5

GFCI and personal protection devices like

electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will

further enhance your personal safety.

Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC

power supply. While the tool may appear to

work, the electrical components of the AC

rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard

to the operator.

Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil

and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely

control the power tool.

Use clamps or other practical way to secure

and support the workpiece to a stable

platform. Holding the work by hand or against

your body is unstable and may lead to loss of

control.

Develop a periodic maintenance schedule

for your tool. When cleaning a tool be

careful not to disassemble any portion of

the tool since internal wires may be

misplaced or pinched or safety guard return

springs may be improperly mounted.

Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,

carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may

damage plastic parts.

Risk of injury to user. The power cord must only

be serviced by a Bosch Factory Service Center

or Autho rized Bosch Service Station.

Use hand guard when sanding and

brushing.

Do not use type 1 wheels for face grinding.

Side forces applied to type 1 wheels may cause

them to shatter or burst.

Some dust created by power

sanding, sawing, grinding,

drilling, and other construction activities

contains chemicals known to cause cancer,

birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints,

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and

other masonry products, and

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-

treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies,

depending on how often you do this type of

work. To reduce your exposure to these

chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and

work with approved safety equipment, such as

those dust masks that are specially designed

to filter out microscopic particles.

SELECTING GRINDING WHEELS

Before using a grinding

wheel, be certain that its

maximum safe operating speed is not

exceeded by the nameplate speed of the

grinder. Do not exceed the recom mended

wheel diameter.

DISC GRINDING WHEELS

Grinding wheels should be carefully selected in

order to use the grinder most efficiently.

Wheels vary in type of abrasive, bond,

hardness, grit size and structure. The correct

type of wheel to use is determined by the job.

Use disc grinding wheels for fast grinding of

structural steel, heavy weld beads, steel

casting, stainless steel and other ferrous

metals.

GRINDING TIPS

Efficient grinding is achieved by controlling the

pressure and keep ing the angle between

wheel and workpiece at 10° to 15°. If the wheel

is flat, the tool is difficult to control. If the angle

is too steep, the pressure is concentrated on a

small area causing burning to the work

surface.

Excessive or sudden pres-

sure on the wheel will slow

grinding action and put dangerous stresses on

the wheel.

When grinding with a new wheel be certain to

grind while pulling tool backwards until wheel

becomes rounded on its edge. New wheels

have sharp corners which tend to “bite” or cut

into work piece when pushing forward.

CUTTING METAL

Using the optional type 1A wheel guard, it is

possible to perform limited cutting on small

stock such as metal tubes, piping or rebar.

When cutting, work with moderate feed,

adapted to the material being cut. Do not

exert side pressure onto the cutting disc, tilt

or oscillate the tool. When cutting profiles

and square bar, it is best to start at the

smallest cross section.

Always follow precautions for kickback.

Do not apply side pressure to cutting wheel

to reduce wheel speed.

The tool should always be used so that

sparks are directed away from user.

CUTTING MASONRY

Operate the tool only with dust extraction and

additionally wear a dust protection mask. The

vacuum used for this application must be

approved for the extraction of masonry dust.

Bosch sells suitable vacuum cleaners.

When cutting masonry always

use dust extraction with foot

plate. The tool may be used only for dry

cutting. When cutting masonry use a dry

diamond wheel.

Always cut towards the dust extraction port

(Fig. 8).

Turn the tool on and place the front part of the

cutting guide on the workpiece. Slide the tool

with moderate rate of feed, adapted to the

material to be cut.

When doing deep cuts, it is best to cut in

several shallow passes.

When cutting especially hard material, e. g.,

concrete with high pebble content, the dry

diamond wheel can overheat and become

damaged. This is clearly indicated by circular

sparking of the rotating dry diamond wheel.

In this case, interrupt the cutting process and

allow the dry diamond wheel to cool by running

the tool for a short time at maximum speed

with no load.

Noticeable decreasing work progress and

circular sparking are indications of a dry

diamond wheel that has become dull. Briefly

cutting into abrasive materials (e. g. brick) can

resharpen the wheel again.

SELECTING SANDING DISC

Sanding discs are made of extremely hard

and sharp aluminum oxide grits, phenol-resin

bonded to a sturdy fiber backing for fast

heavy-duty service and long life. The discs

vary as to size and spacing of the abrasive

grits. OPEN COAT (type H) — used for soft

materials and on paint or varnish. CLOSED

COAT (type K) —used for metal, hardwood,

stone, marble and other materials.

Sanding discs range in grit from 16 (very

coarse) to 180 (very fine). To obtain best

results, select sanding discs carefully. Many

jobs require the use of several grit sizes and

at times both “open coat and closed coat”

discs are required to get the job done faster.

See chart for application examples.

Operation: Refinishing painted wood or metal surfaces.

REMARKS GRIT

To remove paint and to smooth Coarse

surface irregularities. 16-24-30

To smooth Medium

the rough sanding. 36-50-80

To remove scratches left by Fine

previous discs. 100-120

To smooth surfaces for painting, Very Fine

polishing or waxing. 150-180

SANDING TIPS

For best results, tilt the Disc Sander at a 10°

to 15° angle while sanding so that only about

1" of the surface around the edge of the disc

contacts the work.

If the disc (accessory) is held

flat or the back edge of the

disc comes in contact with the work, a violent

thrust to the side may result.

If sander is tilted too much, sanding action will

be too great and a rough cut surface or

gouging and snagging will result.

Guide the Disc Sander with crosswise strokes.

Be careful not to hold the sander in one spot

too long. Do not use a circular motion, as this

makes swirl marks. Test before use on scrap stock.

Do not force or apply pressure when sanding.

Use only the weight of the tool for pressure.

Excess pressure actually slows the tool down.

If faster stock removal is desired, change to a

coarser grit disc.

Remove gummy paint from metal with an

“open coat” disc. Sand until sparks start to

appear, then stop and change to a “closed

coat” disc to remove any remaining paint.

SANDING WOOD

When sanding wood the direction of the disc

motion at the contact point should parallel the

grain as much as possible. The rapid cut of

discs and the swirl type scratch pattern they

occasionally create generally prohibit their use

for producing the final finish.

Scratches and circular marks are usually the

result of using too coarse a grit. When changing

to a finer grit, move across the sand ing lines that

were made by a previous coarser disc.

SANDING METAL

When sanding automobiles or appliances,

wipe the metal clean with a non-flammable

solvent or commercial cleaner to remove all

wax and grease. By doing this first, the

sanding discs will sand better and last longer.

For heavy duty work, use a coarse grit disc first.

Follow-up with a medium grit to remove scratches.

To produce smooth finish, use fine grit disc.

Service

Preventive maintenance

performed by unauth-orized

per so n nel may result in misplacing of

internal wires and components which could

cause serious hazard. We recommend that

all tool service be performed by a Bosch

Factory Service Center or Autho rized Bosch

Service Station.

TOOL LUBRICATION

Your Bosch tool has been properly lubricated

and is ready to use. It is recommended that

tools with gears be regreased with a special

gear lubricant at every brush change.

CARBON BRUSHES

The brushes and commutator in your tool have

been engineered for many hours of

dependable service. To maintain peak

efficiency of the motor, we recommend every

two to six months the brush es be examined.

Only genuine Bosch replace ment brushes

specially designed for your tool should be used.

BEARINGS

After about 300-400 hours of operation, or at

every second brush change, the bearings

should be replaced at Bosch Factory Service

Center or Au thorized Bosch Service Station.

Bearings which become noisy (due to heavy

load or very abrasive material cut ting) should

be replaced at once to avoid overheating or

motor failure.

Maintenance

WARNING

-16-

Wire brushes are intended to “clean” structural

steel, castings, sheet metal, stone and

concrete. They are used to remove rust, scale

and paint.

Avoid bouncing and snagging

the wire brush, especially

when working corners, sharp edges etc. This

can cause loss of control and kick-back.

Be aware that wire bristles

are thrown by the brush

even during ordinary operation. Do not

overstress the wires by applying excessive

load to the brush. The wire bristles can easily

penetrate light clothing and/or skin.

BRUSHING PRESSURE

1. Remember, the tips of a wire brush do the

work. Operate the brush with the lightest

pressure so only the tips of the wire come in

contact with the work.

2. If heavier pressures are used, the wires

will be overstressed, resulting in a wiping

action; and if this is continued, the life of the

brush will be shortened due to wire fatigue.

3. Apply the brush to the work in such a way

that as much of the brush face as possible is

in full contact with the work. Applying the side

or edge of the brush to the work will result in

wire breakage and shortened brush life.

Avertissements généraux concernant la sécurité des outils électroportatifs

Veuillez lire tous les

avertissements et toutes les

consignes de sécurité. Si l'on n'observe pas ces

avertissements et ces consignes de sécurité, il existe un

risque de choc électrique, d'incendie et/ou de blessures

corporelles graves.

CONSERVEZ TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS ET

TOUTES LES CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ POUR

RÉFÉRENCE FUTURE.

Dans les avertissements, le terme « outil électroportatif

» se rapporte à votre outil branché sur le secteur (avec

fil) ou à votre outil alimenté par piles (sans fil).

1) Sécurité du lieu de travail

a) Maintenez le lieu de travail propre et bien éclairé.

Les risques d’accident sont plus élevés quand on

travaille dans un endroit encombré ou sombre.

b) N’utilisez pas d’outils électroportatifs dans des

atmosphères explosives, comme par exemple en

présence de gaz, de poussières ou de liquides

inflammables. Les outils électroportatifs

produisent des étincelles qui risquent d’enflammer

les poussières ou les vapeurs.

c) Éloignez les enfants et les visiteurs quand vous

vous servez d’un outil électroportatif. Vous

risquez une perte de contrôle si on vous distrait.

2) Sécurité électrique

a) Les fiches des outils électroportatifs doivent

correspondre à la prise. Il ne faut absolument

jamais modifier la fiche. N’utilisez pas

d’adaptateur de prise avec des outils

électroportatifs munis d’une fiche de terre. Le

risque de choc électrique est moindre si on utilise

une fiche non modifiée sur une prise qui lui

correspond.

b) Évitez tout contact du corps avec des surfaces

reliées à la terre tels que tuyaux, radiateurs,

gazinières ou réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc

électrique augmente si votre corps est relié à la

terre.

c) N’exposez pas les outils électroportatifs à la pluie

ou à l’humidité. Si de l’eau pénètre dans un outil

électroportatif, le risque de choc électrique

augmente.

d) Ne maltraitez pas le cordon. Ne vous en servez

jamais pour transporter l’outil électroportatif, pour

le tirer ou pour le débrancher. Éloignez le cordon

de la chaleur, des huiles, des arêtes coupantes ou

des pièces mobiles. Les cordons abîmés ou

emmêlés augmentent les risques de choc électrique.

e) Si vous utilisez un outil électroportatif à

l’extérieur, employez une rallonge conçue pour

l’extérieur. Ces rallonges sont faites pour

l’extérieur et réduisent le risque de choc électrique.

f) S'il est absolument nécessaire d'utiliser l'outil

électroportatif dans un endroit humide, utilisez

une alimentation protégée par un disjoncteur de

fuite de terre (GFCI). L'utilisation d'un disjoncteur

GFCI réduit les risques de choc électrique.

3) Sécurité personnelle

a) Restez concentré, faites attention à ce que vous

faites, et servez-vous de votre bon sens lorsque

vous utilisez un outil électroportatif. N'employez

pas d’outils électroportatifs quand vous êtes

fatigué ou sous l’emprise de drogues, d’alcool ou

de médicaments. Quand on utilise des outils

électroportatifs, il suffit d’un moment d’inattention

pour causer des blessures corporelles graves.

b) Utilisez des équipements de sécurité personnelle.

Portez toujours une protection oculaire. Le port

d'équipements de sécurité tels que des masques

antipoussières, des chaussures de sécurité

antidérapantes, des casques de chantier et des

protecteurs d'oreilles dans des conditions

appropriées réduira le risque de blessure corporelle.

c) Évitez les démarrages intempestifs. Assurez-vous

que l'interrupteur est dans la position arrêt (Off)

avant de brancher l'outil dans une prise de

courant et/ou un bloc-piles, de le ramasser ou de

le transporter. Le transport d'un outil électroportatif

avec le doigt sur la gâchette ou le branchement de

cet outil quand l'interrupteur est en position de

marche (ON) est une invite aux accidents.

d) Enlevez toutes les clés de réglage avant de mettre

l’outil électroportatif en marche. Si on laisse une

clé sur une pièce tournante de l’outil électroportatif,

il y a risque de blessure corporelle.

e) Ne vous penchez pas. Conservez toujours une

bonne assise et un bon équilibre. Ceci vous

permettra de mieux maîtriser l’outil électroportatif

dans des situations inattendues.

f) Habillez-vous de manière appropriée. Ne portez

pas de vêtements amples ou de bijoux. Attachez

les cheveux longs. N’approchez pas les cheveux,

les vêtements ou les gants des pièces en

mouvement. Les vêtements amples, les bijoux ou

les cheveux longs risquent d’être happés par les

pièces en mouvement.

g) Si l’outil est muni de dispositifs permettant le

raccordement d’un système d’aspiration et de

collecte des poussières, assurez-vous que ces

dispositifs sont raccordés et utilisés correctement.

L'utilisation d'un dépoussiéreur peut réduire les

dangers associés à l'accumulation de poussière.

4) Utilisation et entretien des outils électroportatifs

a) Ne forcez pas sur l’outil électroportatif. Utilisez

l’outil électroportatif qui convient à la tâche à

effectuer. L’outil qui convient à la tâche fait un

AVERTISSEMENT

-19-

meilleur travail et est plus sûr à la vitesse pour

lequel il a été conçu.

b) Ne vous servez pas de l’outil électroportatif si son

interrupteur ne parvient pas à le mettre en marche

ou à l’arrêter. Tout outil électroportatif qui ne peut

pas être commandé par son interrupteur est

dangereux et doit être réparé.

c) Débranchez la fiche de la prise ou enlevez le bloc-

pile de l’outil électroportatif avant tout réglage,

changement d’accessoires ou avant de ranger

l’outil électroportatif. De telles mesures de sécurité

préventive réduisent le risque de démarrage

intempestif de l’outil électroportatif.

d) Rangez les outils électroportatifs dont vous ne

vous servez pas hors de portée des enfants et ne

permettez pas à des personnes qui ne connaissent

pas l’outil électroportatif ou qui ignorent ces

consignes de s’en servir. Les outils électroportatifs

sont dangereux dans les mains d’utilisateurs

inexpérimentés.

e) Entretenez les outils électroportatifs. Vérifiez que

les pièces mobiles sont alignées correctement et

ne coincent pas. Vérifiez qu’il n’y a pas de pièces

cassées ou d’autre circonstance qui risquent

d’affecter le fonctionnement de l’outil

électroportatif. Si l’outil est abîmé, faites-le

réparer avant de l’utiliser. De nombreux accidents

sont causés par des outils électroportatifs mal

entretenus.

f) Maintenez les outils coupants affûtés et propres.

Les outils coupants entretenus correctement et

dotés de bords tranchants affûtés sont moins

susceptibles de coincer et sont plus faciles à

maîtriser.

g) Utilisez l'outil électroportatif, les accessoires et

les embouts d'outil, etc. conformément à ces

instructions, en tenant compte des conditions de

travail et des travaux à réaliser. L'emploi d’outils

électroportatifs pour des tâches différentes de celles

pour lesquelles ils ont été prévus peut résulter en

une situation dangereuse.

Entretien

a) Faites réparer votre outil électroportatif par un

agent de service qualifié n’utilisant que des

pièces de rechange identiques. Ceci assure que la

sécurité de l’outil électroportatif est préservée.

Avertissements spécifiques à la sécurité des outils électroportatifs

Avertissements habituels concernant la sécurité des

opérations de rectification, de ponçage, de brossage

métallique et de tronçonnage à la meule abrasive :

a) Cet outil électroportatif a été conçu pour

fonctionner comme un outil de rectification, de

ponçage, de brossage métallique ou de

tronçonnage. Veuillez lire toute la documentation

relative à la sécurité qui a été fournie avec cet

outil électroportatif, notamment, les

avertissements, les consignes, les illustrations et

les spécifications. Si l'on n'observe pas toutes les

consignes indiquées ci-dessous, il existe un risque

de choc électrique, d'incendie et/ou de blessures

corporelles graves.

b) Cet outil électroportatif n'est pas recommandé

pour le polissage. L'usage de l'outil au cours de

travaux pour lesquels il n'a pas été conçu risque de

présenter un danger et de causer des blessures

corporelles.

c) N'utilisez pas d'accessoires qui n'ont pas été

spécifiquement conçus et recommandés par le

fabricant de l'outil. Le simple fait qu'un accessoire

puisse être attaché à votre outil électroportatif ne

garantit pas un fonctionnement sans danger.

d) La vitesse nominale de l'accessoire doit être au

moins égale à la vitesse maximum indiquée sur

l'outil électroportatif. Les accessoires que l'on fait

tourner à une vitesse supérieure à leur VITESSE

NOMINALE peuvent se casser et voler en éclats.

e) Le diamètre externe et l'épaisseur de votre

accessoire doivent être dans les limites de

capacité de votre outil électroportatif. Des

accessoires de la mauvaise taille ne peuvent pas être

adéquatement protégés ou contrôlés.

f) Les arbres des meules, des brides, des disques

d'appui ou de tous les autres accessoires doivent

être d'une taille qui leur permet d'être ajustés

correctement sur la broche de l'outil

électroportatif. Les accessoires qui ont des orifices

d'arbre n'étant pas compatibles avec la quincaillerie

de montage de l'outil électroportatif seront

déséquilibrés, vibreront de manière excessive et

risquent de causer une perte de contrôle.

g) N'utilisez pas d'accessoires endommagés.

Inspectez vos accessoires avant chaque utilisation

: vérifiez par exemple que votre meule abrasive

n'est ni fêlée, ni ébréchée, que votre disque

d'appui n'est ni fêlé, ni déchiré, ni trop usé et que

votre brosse métallique ne contient pas de fils

cassés ou détachés. Si vous laissez tomber l'outil

ou l'accessoire, vérifiez que ce dernier n'est pas

endommagé ou remplacez-le par un accessoire en

bon état. Après l'inspection et l'installation d'un

accessoire, tenez-vous à distance du plan de

l'accessoire en mouvement et demandez à toute

personne présente de faire de même, et faites

fonctionner l'outil à sa vitesse à vide maximale

pendant une minute. Si un accessoire est

endommagé, il se cassera habituellement en

plusieurs morceaux pendant cette période de test.

h) Portez des équipements de protection personnelle.

Suivant le travail effectué, portez un masque de

protection, des lunettes à coques ou des lunettes

de sécurité. S'il y a lieu, portez un masque

antipoussières, des dispositifs de protection de

l'ouïe, des gants et un tablier d'atelier capable

d'arrêter des petits fragments abrasifs ou des

fragments de la pièce. Les dispositifs de protection

des yeux doivent pouvoir arrêter des débris volants

produits par diverses opérations. Le masque

antipoussières ou le respirateur doit être capable de

filtrer des particules générées par votre travail. Une

exposition prolongée à un bruit de haute intensité

peut entraîner une perte de l'ouïe.

i) Gardez toute personne présente à une distance

sûre de l'aire de travail. Toute personne qui entre

dans l'aire de travail doit porter des équipements

de protection personnelle. Des fragments d'une

pièce ou d'un accessoire peuvent être projetés et

causer des blessures au-delà de l'aire d'opération

immédiate.

j) Tenez l'outil électroportatif exclusivement au

niveau de ses surfaces de préhension isolées

quand vous réalisez une opération au cours de

laquelle l'accessoire de coupe risque d'entrer en

contact avec des fils électriques dissimulés ou

avec son propre cordon d'alimentation. Quand un

accessoire de coupe entre en contact avec un fil «

sous tension », cela peut mettre des parties

métalliques exposées de l'outil électroportatif « sous

tension » et électrocuter l'utilisateur.

k) Positionnez le cordon hors de la trajectoire de

l'accessoire en mouvement. Si vous perdez

contrôle de l'outil, le cordon d'alimentation risque

d'être coupé ou de s'accrocher et votre main ou

votre bras risque d'être tiré jusqu'à ce qu'il entre en

contact avec l'accessoire en mouvement.

l) Ne posez jamais l'outil électroportatif tant que

l'accessoire n'a pas complètement cessé de

tourner. L'accessoire en mouvement risque

d'accrocher la surface sur laquelle il est posé et de

vous faire perdre contrôle de l'outil.

m) Ne laissez pas l'outil électroportatif en marche

quand vous le portez sur le côté. Un contact

accidentel avec l'accessoire en mouvement risquerait

d'accrocher vos vêtements et d'attirer l'accessoire

vers votre corps.

n) Nettoyez régulièrement les prises d'air de l'outil

électroportatif. Le ventilateur du moteur attirera de

la poussière à l'intérieur du boîtier de l'outil et une

accumulation excessive de poudre métallique risque

de causer des dangers électriques.

o) Ne faites pas fonctionner l'outil électroportatif à

proximité de matériaux inflammables. Des

étincelles pourraient enflammer ces matériaux.

p) N'utilisez pas d'accessoires qui exigent des

liquides de refroidissement. L'utilisation d'eau ou

d'autres liquides de refroidissement peut entraîner

une électrocution ou un choc électrique.

Avertissements sur les rebonds et effets associés

L'effet de rebond est une réaction soudaine au

pincement ou à l'accrochage d'une meule, d'un disque

d'appui, d'une brosse ou de tout autre accessoire

pivotant. Un tel pincement ou accrochage fait

rapidement caler l'accessoire en mouvement, ce qui

force l'outil électroportatif hors de contrôle à aller dans la

direction opposée à celle de la rotation de l'accessoire à

l'emplacement du blocage.

Par exemple, si une meule abrasive est accrochée ou

pincée par la pièce, le bord de la meule à l'emplacement

du pinçage peut creuser la surface du matériau et forcer

la meule à se « hisser » sur la pièce ou à être éjectée. La

meule peut alors sauter soit en direction de l'utilisateur,

soit dans la direction opposée, en fonction de la direction

du mouvement de la meule à l'emplacement du

pincement. Les meules abrasives peuvent également se

briser dans de telles conditions.

Les rebonds résultent d'une mauvaise utilisation de

l'outil électroportatif et/ou de procédures ou de

conditions d'utilisation incorrectes, et ils peuvent être

évités en prenant les précautions nécessaires indiquées

ci-dessous :

a) Maintenez une prise ferme sur l'outil

électroportatif et positionnez votre bras et le reste

de votre corps de façon à vous permettre de

résister aux forces de rebond. Utilisez toujours la

poignée auxiliaire, quand elle vous a été fournie,

pour un contrôle maximum du rebond ou de la

réaction de couple qui se produit pendant la mise

en marche de l'outil. L'utilisateur peut contrôler les

réactions de couple ou les forces de rebond en

prenant les précautions nécessaires.

b) Ne placez jamais votre main à proximité de

l'accessoire en mouvement. L'accessoire risquerait

de rebondir sur votre main.

c) Ne vous placez jamais dans la zone où l'outil

électroportatif se dirigerait si un rebond se

produisait. L'effet de rebond projetterait l'outil dans

la direction opposée à celle du mouvement de la

meule à l'emplacement de l'accrochage.

d) Faites particulièrement attention quand vous

travaillez des coins ou des arêtes tranchantes, etc.

Évitez de faire rebondir ou d'accrocher

l'accessoire. Les coins, les arêtes tranchantes et les

rebondissements ont tendance à faire accrocher

l'accessoire en mouvement et à entraîner une perte

de contrôle ou un rebond.

e) Ne fixez pas une lame à sculpter le bois de chaîne

coupante ou une lame de scie dentée sur l'outil. De

telles lames causent fréquemment des rebonds et

des pertes de contrôle.
