g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
5. Service

person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
Safety instructions for all operations Safety
warnings common for grinding'
a. This power tool is intended to function as a grinder
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 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 grinding accessories must
be at least equal to the maximumspeed marked on
the power tool. Grinding 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 controlled.
f. The arbour size of wheels, sanding drums 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.
g. Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding drums, cutters
or other accessories must be fully nserted into the
collet or chuck. If the mandrel is insufficiently held
and/or the overhang of the wheel is too long, the
mounted wheel may become loose and be ejected at
high velocity.
h. 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, 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.
