Power tool use and care
a)
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b)
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c)
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d)
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e)
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g)
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5)
Service
a)
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
1.2 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 sander. 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, wire brushing, polishing or cutting-off are not recommended to be
performed with this power tool.
Operations for which the power tool was not designed may create a
hazard and cause personal injury.
c)
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.
d)
The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the
power tool.
A
ccessories 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)
Threaded mounting of accessories must match the grinder spindle thread. For accessories
mounted by flanges, the arbour 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.
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.
