4 Special Safety Instructions
4.1 Safety Warnings Common for Grinding,
Sanding, Wire Brushing, Polishing or
Abrasive Cutting-Off Operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function as a
polisher. 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) Operations such as grinding, sanding, wire
brushing or cutting-off are not recommended
to be performed with this power tool. Opera-
tions for which the power tool was not designed
may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories which are not specif-
ically 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 arbour size of wheels, flanges, backing
pads or any other accessory must properly fit
the spindle of the power tool. Accessories with
arbour holes that do not match the mounting hard-
ware of the power tool will run out of balance,
vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
