1. Specific safety instructions
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding, Wire Brus-
hing, Polishing or Carving:
- This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, carving tool, polisher or wire brush. 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- The outside diameter and the thickness of your
acce sory 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, cutters
or other accessories must be fully inserted into the
collet or chuck. The “overhang” or the length of
the mandrel from the wheel to the collet must be
minimal.
If the mandrel is insufficiently held and/or the
overhang of the wheel is too long, the mounted wheel
may become loose and ejected at high velocity.
- Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use
in pect 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 bysta ders 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.
- Wear personal protective equipment. Depending
on application, use face shield, safety goggles or
safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask,
hearing pr tectors, gloves and workshop apron
capable of sto ping small abrasive or workpiece
fragments. The eye pr te tion must be capable of
stopping flying debris gener ted by various operations.
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 acce sory may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. 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 during the start-up. The
rea tion 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 wo kpiece in one hand
and the tool in the other hand while in use. Clamping
a small workpiece allows you to use both hands to
control the tool. Round material such as dowel rods,
pipes or tubing have a tendency to roll wh le being cut,
and may cause the bit to bind or jump toward you.
- Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If
you lose control of the power tool, the cord may be cut
or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into
the spinning accessory.
- Never lay the power tool down until the accessory
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 adjustments,
make sure the collet nut, chuck or any other
adjustment dev ces 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 accessory 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 coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in ele
trocution or shock.
