Special safety instructions.
Safety Warnings common for Grind-
ing, Sanding, Wire Brushing or Abra-
sive Cutting Off Operations
This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, sander, wire brush or cut-off tool.
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illus-
trations and specifications provided with this
power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Operations such as polishing are not recom-
mended to be performed with this power tool.
Operations for which the power tool was not
designed may create a hazard and cause per-
sonal injury.
Do not use accessories which are not specifi-
cally designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer.
Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not
assure safe operation.
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.
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.
Application tools with threaded insert must
exactly fit the thread size of the spindle. For
application tools mounted by flanges, the
arbor hole of the application tool must fit the
mounting hole diameter of the flange.
Appli-
cation tools that are not precisely mounted to
the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate
excessively and may cause loss of control.
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 acces-
sory 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 testtime.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on application, use face shield, safety
goggles or safety glasses. Where appropriate,
wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves
and workshop apron capable of stopping
small abrasive or workpiece fragments.
The
safety glasses must be capable of protecting
against flying particles generated by the vari-
ous operations. Prolonged exposure to high
intensity noise may cause loss of hearing.
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 acces-
sory may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
Hold the power tool only by the insulated grip-
ping surfaces when performing operations
where the application tool could contact hid-
den wires.
Contact with a “live” wire will also
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and shock the operator.
Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
sory has come to a complete stop.
The spin-
ning accessory may grab the surface and pull
the power tool out of your control.
Do not run the power tool while carrying it at
your side.
Accidental contact with the spin-
ning accessory could snag your clothing, pull-
ing the accessory into your body.
Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.
The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the
housing and excessive accumulation of pow-
dered metal may cause electrical hazards.
Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials.
Sparks could ignite these materials.
Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
