tool manufacturer.
Just because the accessory
can be attached to your power tool, it does not
assure safe operation.
3.
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.
4.
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.
5.
The shank of the accessories used must
properly fit the Collet 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.
6.
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. If the 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.
7.
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 work piece
fragments. The eye protection must be capable
of stopping flying debris generated by various
operations.
The eye protection must be capable
of stopping flying debris generated by various
operations. The dust mask or respirator must be
capable of filtering out particles generated by your
operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
8.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from
work area. Anyone entering the work area must
wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments
of work piece or of a broken accessory may fly
away and cause injury beyond the immediate area
of operation.
9.
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.
10.
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.
11.
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.
12.
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.
13.
Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
14.
Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may
result in electrocution or shock.
15.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.
These carry important safety information. If
unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight
Tools for a replacement.
16.
Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin
work before turning on the tool.
17.
Do not leave the tool unattended when it is
plugged into an electrical outlet.
Turn off
the tool, and unplug it from its electrical outlet
before leaving.
18.
Use clamps (not included) or other practical
ways to secure and support the workpiece to
a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead to loss
of control and personal injury.
19.
This product is not a toy.
Keep it out of reach
of children.

People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use.
Electromagnetic fields
in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure. In
addition, people with pacemakers should:
• Avoid operating alone.
• Do not use with power switch locked on.
• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid
electrical shock.
• Any power cord must be properly grounded.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) should
also be implemented – it prevents sustained
electrical shock.
