d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar 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 misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool’s 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.
Prop-
erly 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 instruc-
tions, taking into account the working con-
ditions and the work to be performed.
Use
of the power tool for operations different from
those intended could result in a hazardous situ-
ation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Machine-specific
Safety Warnings
Safety warnings that are common for
grinding, sanding, wire brushing or
abrasive cutting off operations
f
This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, sander, wire brush or cut-off tool.
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illus-
trations and specifications provided with
this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
f
This power tool is not recommended for
poslishing.
Operations for which the power tool
was not designed may create a hazard and cause
personal injury.
f
Do not use accessories which are not specif-
ically designed and recommended by the
tool manufacturer.
Just because the accessory
can be attached to your power tool, it does not
assure safe operation.
f
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 fly apart.
f
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 guarded or
controlled.
f
The arbor size of wheels, flanges, backing
pads or any other accessory must properly fit
the spindle of the power tool.
Accessories with
arbor holes that do not match the mounting hard-
ware of the power tool will run out of balance,
vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
f
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before
each use, inspect the accessory such as
abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, back-
ing pads for cracks, tears or excess wear,
wire brushes for loose or cracked wires. If
power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect
for damage or install an undamaged acces-
sory. After inspecting and installing an
accessory, position yourself and bystanders
away from the plane of the rotating acces-
sory and run the power tool at maximum
no-load speed for one minute.
Damaged
accessories will normally break apart during this
test time.
f
Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. As appro-
priate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors,
gloves and shop apron capable of stopping
small abrasive or workpiece fragments.
The
eye protection must be capable of stopping flying
debris generated 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.
f
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from
the work area. Anyone entering the work
area must wear personal protective equip-
ment.
Fragments of workpiece or of a broken
accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
f
Hold the power tool only by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing an oper-
ation where the cutting tool may contact hid-
den wiring or its own power cord.
Contact with
a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of
the power tool “live” and shock the operator.
f
Position the cord clear of the spinning acces-
sory.
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.
