SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
ALL OPERATIONS
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding,
Sanding, Wire Brushing, Polishing or
Abrasive, Cutting-Off Operations
a) This power tool is intended to function as a grinder,
sander, wire brush, polisher 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) 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.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder
spindle thread. For accessories mounted by flanges, the arbor
hole of the accessory must fit the locating diameter of the flange.
Accessories that do not match the mounting hardware of the
power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may
cause loss of control.
f) 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.
g) 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 dust
mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may
cause hearing loss.
h) 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.
i) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
when performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and shock the operator.
j) 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.
k) 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.
l) 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.
m) 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.
