General Power Tool Safety Warnings
This power tool is intended to function as a grinder, sander, wire brush, polisher, carving or cut-off tool.
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.
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.
The RATED SPEED of the accessories must be at least equal to the operating speed setting 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.
The arbor size of wheels, sanding drums or any other accessory must properly fit the spindle or collet of the
power tool. 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.
Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding drums, cutters or other accessories must be fully inserted into the collet
or chuck. If the mandrel is insufficiently held and/or the overhang of the wheel is too long, the mounted wheel
may become loose and be ejected at high velocity.
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips
and cracks, sanding drum 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.
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 workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying
debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles
generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
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 accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of
operation.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Always hold the tool firmly in your hand(s) during the start-up. The reaction torque of the motor, as it
accelerates to full speed, can cause the tool to twist.
Use clamps to support workpiece whenever practical. Never hold a small workpiece in one hand and the tool
in the other hand while in use.
Clamping a small workpiece allows you to use your hand(s) to control the tool. Round material such as
dowel rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency to roll while being cut, and may cause the bit to bind or jump
toward you.
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.
