SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL OPERATIONS
Safety Warnings Common
for Grinding or Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
a) This power tool is intended to
function as a grinder 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.
b) Operations such as grinding,
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.
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.
Accessories
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.
h) 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
