SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY WARNINGS COMMON
FOR GRINDING, CUTTING-OFF
OPERATIONS
1. This power tool is intended to function
as a grinder or cut-off tool. 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, re and/or
serious injury.
2. Operations such as sanding, wire
brushing or polishing are not
recommended to be performed with
this power tool. Operations for which the
power tool was not designed may create
a hazard and cause personal injury.
3. 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.
4. 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 y apart.
5. 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.
6. 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
hardware of the power tool will run out
of balance, vibrate excessively and
may cause loss of control.
7. Do not use a damaged accessory.
Before each use, inspect the
accessory such as abrasive wheels
for chips and cracks, backing pad 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 bystanders 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.
8. Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face
shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. As appropriate, wear dust
mask, hearing protectors, gloves and
workshop apron capable of stopping
small abrasive or workpiece fragments.
The eye protection must be capable
of stopping ying debris generated by
various operations. The dust mask or
respirator must be capable of ltrating
particles generated by your operation.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
9. 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 y away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
10. Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces only, when
performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring.
Contact with a “live” wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
11. 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.
12. 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.
13. 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.
14. Do not operate the power tool near
flammable materials. Sparks could
ignite these materials.
15. Do not use accessories that require
liquid coolants. Using water or other
liquid may result in electrocution or
shock.
