SAFETY GUIDELINES
-ELECTRIC-
•
Accessories must be rated for at least the
speed recommended on the tool warning label.
Wheels and other accessories running over
rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.
•
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.
•
NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades or
other sawblades. Such blades when used on
a polisher frequently kick and cause loss of
control leading to personal injury.
•
Hold the tool firmly and keeps hands away from
rotating parts.
•
Make sure the abrasive disc or wool bonnet is
not contacting the workpiece before the switch
is turned on.
•
When sanding metal surfaces, watch out for
flying sparks. Hold the tool so that sparks fly
away from you and other persons or flammable
materials.
•
Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
•
Do not touch the workpiece immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
•
Check that the workpiece is properly supported.
•
Pay attention that the wheel continues to rotate
after the tool is switched off. Check hose and
fittings regularly for wear, replace if necessary
•
This tool has not been waterproofed, so do not
use water on the workpiece surface.
•
Ventilate your work area adequately when you
perform sanding operations.
