Makita MGD100 Instruction Manual Download Page 3

Never carry the tool by the cord or yank it to 
disconnect it from the socket. Keep the cord away 
from heat, oil and sharp edges. 

12. 

Secure work.

 

Use clamps or a vice to hold the work. It is safer 
than using your hand and it frees both hands to 
operate the tool. 

13. 

Do not overreach.

 

Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 

14. 

Maintain tools with care.

 

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean for better and 
safer performance. Follow instructions for 
lubrication and changing accessories. Inspect tool 
cord periodically and if damaged have it repaired 
by an authorized service facility. Inspect extension 
cords periodically and replace, if damaged. Keep 
handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. 

15. 

Disconnect tools.

 

When not in use, before servicing and when 
changing accessories such as blades, bits and 
cutters. 

16. 

Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.

 

Form the habit of checking to see that keys and 
adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool 
before turning it on. 

17. 

Avoid unintentional starting.

 

Do not carry a plugged-in tool with a finger on the 
switch. Ensure switch is off when plugging in. 

18. 

Use outdoor extension leads.

 

When tool is used outdoors, use only extension 
cords intended for outdoor use. 

19. 

Stay alert.

 

Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. 
Do not operate tool when you are tired. 

20. 

Check damaged parts.

 

Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part 
that is damaged should be carefully checked to 
determine that it will operate properly and perform 
its intended function. Check for alignment of 
moving parts, free running of moving parts, 
breakage of parts, mounting and any other 
conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or 
other part that is damaged should be properly 
repaired or replaced by an authorized service 
center unless otherwise indicated in this 
instruction manual. Have defective switches 
replaced by an authorized service facility. Do not 
use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and 
off. 

21. 

Warning.

 

The use of any accessory or attachment, other 
than those recommended in this instruction 
manual or the catalog, may present a risk of 
personal injury. 

22. 

Have your tool repaired by a qualified person.

 

This electric tool is in accordance with the relevant 
safety requirements. Repairs should only be 
carried out by qualified persons using original 
spare parts, otherwise this may result in 
considerable danger to the user. 

ENB044-3 

 

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES 

1. 

Always use eye and ear protection. Other 
personal protective equipment such as dust 
mask, gloves, helmet and apron should be 
worn. 

2. 

Use only wheels with the correct size and 
wheels having a maximum operating speed at 
least as high as the highest No Load Speed 
marked on the tool’s nameplate. 

3. 

Check the wheel carefully for cracks or 
damage before operation. Replace cracked or 
damaged wheel immediately. 

4. 

Observe the instructions of the manufacturer 
for correct mounting and use of wheels. 
Handle and store wheels with care. 

5. 

Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, 
test run the tool at the highest no load speed 
for at least 30 seconds in a safe position. Stop 
immediately if there is any vibration or 
wobbling that could indicate poor installation 
or a poorly balanced wheel. Check the tool to 
determine the cause. 

6. 

Check that the workpiece is properly 
supported. 

7. 

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when 
performing an operation where the cutting tool 
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

 

Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal 
parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. 

8. 

Make sure the wheel is not contacting the 
workpiece before the switch is turned on. 

9. 

Watch out for flying sparks. Hold the tool so 
that sparks fly away from you and other 
persons or flammable materials. 

10. 

Pay attention that the wheel continues to 
rotate after the tool is switched off. 

11. 

Hold the tool firmly. 

12. 

Keep hands away from rotating parts. 

13. 

Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool 
only when hand-held. 

14. 

Do not touch the workpiece immediately after 
operation; it may be extremely hot and could 
burn your skin. 

15. 

Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be 
sure no one is below when using the tool in 
high locations. 

16. 

Do not use the tool on any materials 
containing asbestos.
