5 Safety 

instructions

5.1  General safety instructions

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and 

all instructions. 

Failure 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.

-  Never allow children to use the machine.

5.2   Machine-related safety instructions

- 

This power tool is intended to function as a 

wire brush. Read all safety warnings, instruc-

tions, illustrations and specifi cations provided 

with this power tool. 

Failure to follow all in-

structions listed below may result in electric 

shock, fi re and/or serious injury.

-

  Operations such as grinding, sanding, polish-

ing or cutting-off are not recommended to be 

performed with this power tool. 

Operations 

for which the power tool was not designed may 

create a hazard and cause personal injury.

- 

Do not use accessories which are not specifi -

cally designed and recommended by Festool. 

Just because the accessory can be attached to 

your power tool, it does not assure safe opera-

tion.

- 

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 fl y apart.

- 

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.

- 

The arbour size of wheels, fl anges, backing 

pads or any other accessory must properly fi t 

the spindle of the power tool.

 Accessories with 

arbour holes that do not match the mounting 

hardware of the power tool will run out of bal-

ance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss 

of control.

- 

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 acces-

sory 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 ac-

cessories will normally break apart during this 

test time.

- 

Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-

ing on application, use face shield, safety gog-

12

gles 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 fl ying 

debris generated by various operations . The 

dust mask or respirator must be capable of 

fi ltrating particles generated by your operation. 

Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may 

cause hearing loss.

- 

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 ac-

cessory may fl y away and cause injury beyond 

immediate area of operation.

- 

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.

- 

Position the cord clear of the spinning acces-

sory. 

If you lose control, the cord may be cut or 

snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled 

into the spinning accessory.

- 

Never lay the power tool down until the acces-

sory has come to a complete stop.

 The spinning 

accessory may grab the surface and pull the 

power tool out of your control.

- 

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.

- 

Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. 

The 

motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the hous-

ing and excessive accumulation of powdered 

metal may cause electrical hazards.

- 

Do not operate the power tool near fl ammable 

materials. 

Sparks could ignite these materi-

als.

- 

Do not use accessories that require liquid cool-

ants. 

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 kick out. 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.

-

  Maintain a fi rm grip on the power tool and po-

sition your body and arm to allow you to resist 

kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, 

if provided, for maximum control over kick-

back or torque reaction during start-up. 

The 

operator can control torque reactions or kick-

back forces, if proper precautions are taken.

- 

Never place your hand near the rotating acces-

sory. 

Accessory may kickback over your hand. 

- 

Do not position your body in the area where 

power tool will move if kickback occurs. 

Kick-

back will propel the tool in direction opposite 

to the wheel’s movement at the point of snag-

ging.

- 

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.

- 

Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or 

toothed saw blade. 

Such blades create frequent 

kickback and loss of control.

Safety Warnings Specifi c for Wire Brushing Op-

erations

- 

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.

- 

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.

- 

Only for AS/NZS: 

The tool shall always be sup-

plied via residual current device with a rated 

residual current of 30 mA or less.
