Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acciden
-
tally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
•
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam
-
aged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
•
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or tem
-
perature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions.
Charging im-
properly or at temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
• Never service damaged battery packs.
Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
TIRE BUFFER
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Sanding,
or Polishing Operations:
• This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, sander, or polisher tool. Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations and speci-
fications 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 wire brushing 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 manufac
-
turer.
Just because the accessory can be attached
to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
• The rated speed of the grinding accessories must
be at least equal to the maximum speed marked
on the power tool.
Grinding 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 controlled.
•
The arbour size of wheels, sanding drum 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, cut-
ters or other accessories must be fully inserted
into the collet or chuck.
If the mandrel is insuffi
-
ciently 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. If power tool or ac-
cessory 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 acces-
sories 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 opera
-
tions. 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 power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring.
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.
• Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
sory has come to a complete stop.
The spinning
accessory may grab the surface and pull the power
tool out of your control.
•
After changing the bits or making any adjust
-
ments, make sure the collet nut, chuck or any
other adjustment devices are securely tightened.
Loose adjustment devices can unexpectedly shift,
causing loss of control, loose rotating components
will be violently thrown.
• Do not run the power tool while carrying it at
your side.
Accidental contact with the spinning
accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the ac-
cessory 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 powdered 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 cool
-
ants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result
in electrocution or shock.
