SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ANGLE
GRINDERS
Safety Warnings Specific for Grinding Operations
!
This power tool is intended to function as a grinder. 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.
!
Operations such as sanding, 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.
!
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 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.
!
The arbour size of wheels, flanges or any other accessory must properly fit
the spindle of the power tool. Accessories with arbour 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.
!
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the accessory
such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks. 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.
