tool's operation. If damaged, have the

bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the

qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.

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.
