WARNING:
For your safety, do not
plug in your angle grinder until you
have read and understood this Owner’s
Manual.
WARNING:
Always wear eye
protection that conforms with CSA
requirements or ANSI safety standard
Z87.1.
WARNING:
Always wear gloves to
protect your hands from hot sparks.
WARNING:
Always wear hearing
protection and dust mask. Use only in well
ventilated areas. Use of personal
protective equipment and working in a safe
environment will reduce the risk of injury
.
Always keep hands out of the path of the
grinding disc. Avoid awkward hand
positions where a sudden slip could cause
your hand to move into the moving blade.
To avoid injury from accidental starting,
always unplug the angle grinder from the
power source before installing or removing
grinding discs.
Grinding disc and guard must be securely
attached as described in this Owner’s
Manual before connecting the grinder to
the power source. Failure to do so will
increase the risk of serious injury if the
grinding disc shatters.
Make sure the guard is in good condition
and securely installed before operating
grinder.
Secure workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to
hold the
work when practical. It’s safer
than using your hand and it frees both
hands to operate the tool.
Do not clamp grinder in vise or use as a
fixed grinder.
Grinding discs must be stored in a dry
location to prevent deterioration.
Before attaching the grinding disc, inspect
it for visible defects. If cracked, chipped or
warped do not install it.
Use only grinding discs that comply with
ANSI Standard B7.1 and rated for a speed
greater than 11,000 RPM.
Do not remove the soft paper in the centre
of the grinding disc.
NOTE:
If this paper has been previously
removed, insert some soft rubber or paper
between the grinding disc and the disc
flange to prevent damage to the grinding
disc.
Do not alter or enlarge the centre hole of
the grinding disc as this could result in
breaking it.
Do not over tighten the clamp nut on the
grinding disc. Excessive tightening may
cause the disc to crack and possibly
shatter during operation.
Do not use the grinder if the disc flange or
clamp nut is missing or if the spindle is
bent.
