SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR SANDING
OPERATIONS
Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc
paper. Follow manufacturers recommendations,
when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding
paper extending beyond the sanding pad presents a
laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of
the disc or kickback.
SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR POLISHING
OPERATIONS
Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing
bonnet or its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck
away or trim any loose attachment strings. Loose
and spinning attachment strings can entangle your
fingers or snag on the workpiece.
SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR WIRE
BRUSHING OPERATIONS
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush
even during ordinary operation. Do not overstress
the wires by applying excessive load to the brush.
The wire bristles can easily penetrate light clothing
and/or skin.
If the use of a guard is recommended for wire
brushing, do not allow any interference of the
wire wheel or brush with the guard. Wire wheel or
brush may expand in diameter due to work load and
centrifugal forces.
