Tips to maintain maximum battery life:
•
Charge the battery cartridge before it is fully discharged. Always stop tool
operation and charge the battery cartridge when you notice less power from the
tool.
•
Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge. Overcharging shortens battery
life.
• Charge the battery cartridge at room temperature of 10°C -40°C (50°F - 104°F).
Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
• Please charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it for a long time (more
than six months).
Additional security warnings
Grinding, sanding, wire brushing, polishing or abrasive cutting operations
This power tool is designed to function as a grinder, sander, planer, wire brush,
polisher, or cutting tool.
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations, and specifications provided with this
power tool. Failure to follow all instructions may result in electrical shock, fire, and/or
serious injury.
•
Do not use this tool in operations for which it was not designed. Otherwise, it
may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
•
Do not use accessories and fixtures or tools that are not specifically designed
and recommended by the tool manufacturer. The fact that the accessory can be
attached to the power tool does not guarantee safe operation.
• The rated speed of the wheel must be at most the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. A tool that has a speed greater than that of the tool can become
loose from its clamping.
•
The outside diameter and thickness of the disc must be within the rated
capacity of your guards. Improperly sized accessories cannot be properly
stored or controlled.
•
The assembly of threaded tools must coincide with the thread of the spindle of
the grinder. For flange mounted fittings, the fitting hole must fit the mounting
diameter of the flange.
• Do not use the damaged cutting tool. Before each use, check the cutting discs,
make sure they do not have cracks, tears or excessive wear; check wire brush
for loose or cracked wires. Dull bits cause the tool to strain too much. If the
power tool is dropped, inspect for damage and replace if necessary.
After inspecting and installing a tool, stand in a safe area and check that no one
is in the work area when you run the power tool at full speed with no load for
one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break during this testing time.
• Wear personal protective equipment. Wear face shield, safety glasses. If
necessary, dust masks, ear protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of
stopping small abrasive or chip fragments. Eye protection must be capable of
stopping debris and flying particles generated by various operations. The dust
mask or respirator must be capable of filtering the particles generated by your
operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.
• Keep people out of the work area. Anyone entering the work area must wear
personal protective equipment. Fragments of the workpiece or a broken
