GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Your AIR DIE GRINDER has many features that
will make your job faster and easier. Safety, per-
formance and reliability have been given top
priority in the design of this tool, qualities to
make easy to maintain and to operate.
WARNING: Read and understand all instruc-
tions. Failure to follow all indications listed be-
low, may result in electric shock, fire and/or seri-
ous personal injury. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
SAFETY IN WORKING AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Clut-
tered benches and dark areas may cause acci-
dents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Some power tools create
sparks which may provoke fire.
Keep away observers, children and visitors
while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Don't use the tool if you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power
tools may cause a serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, cloth-
ing and gloves away of moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
Avoid an accidental starting. Be sure that the
switch is OFF before plugging in. Carrying tools
with the finger on the switch or plug in the tool
switch in ON may cause accidents.
Remove the adjusting keys or wrenches before
turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is
left close to a rotating part of the tool may pro-
voke a personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. Proper footing and balance
enables better control of the tools on unexpect-
ed situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection must be used for appro-
priate conditions.
E N G L I S H •
Before connecting the tool to a power source
(receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage
supplied is the same as that one specified on
the nameplate of the tool. To use a not specified
voltage may cause a serious injury to the user as
well as damage the tool.
IMPORTANT: This appliance is not intended
for use by persons (including children) with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities
may be different or reduced, or lack of experi-
ence or knowledge, unless such persons are su-
pervised or trained to operate the product by
a person responsible for their safety. Children
should be supervised to ensure they do not use
the devices as toys.
TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the work piece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against the body
is unstable and is able to lead to loss of control.
2. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for
the application. The correct tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which the tool
is designed.
3. Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn
the tool on or off. Any tool that cannot be con-
trolled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
4. Disconnect the tool from the air source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing the tool. Such preventive safety mea-
sures reduce the risk of starting the tool unin-
tentionally. Turn off and detach the air supply,
safely discharge any residual air pressure, and
release the trigger before leaving the work
area.
5. Store the tool when it is idle out of reach of
children and other untrained persons. A tool is
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
6. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, and any other condi-
tion that affects the tool's operation. If dam-
aged, have the tool serviced before using. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
There is a risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.
7. Use only accessories that are identified by the
manufacturer for the specific tool model. Use
of an accessory not intended for use with the
specific tool model, increases the risk of injury
to persons.
