3. HEALTH AND SAFETY
INFORMATION
3.1 GENERAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER TOOL
USE
Warning! Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specications provided with this
power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tools” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the inuence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat or hearing protection use for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your nger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing
away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent
use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety
principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack, if
detachable, from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing
–
4
–
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar 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 and accessories.
Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage 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.
Properly 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
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow
for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualied repair person using only identical
replacements parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
3.2 ADDITIONAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS FOR GRINDERS
Warning!
Safety instructions for all operations
Safety warnings common for grinding:
a) This power tool is intended to function as
a grinder. Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and
specications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, re and/or
serious injury.
b) Operations such as polishing, sanding,
wire brushing or cutting-off 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.
c) Do not use accessories which are not
specically designed and recommended
by the tool manufacturer. Just because the
accessory can be attached to your power tool,
it does not assure safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the grinding
accessories must be at least equal to the
maximum speed marked on the power
tool. Grinding accessories running faster than
their rated speed can break and y apart.
e) 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 controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must
match the grinder spindle thread. For
accessories mounted by anges, the
arbour hole of the accessory must t the
locating diameter of the ange. Accessories
that do not match the mounting hardware of
the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate
excessively and may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before
each use inspect the accessory such as
abrasive wheels for chips and cracks,
sanding drum 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.
h) 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.
j) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
–
5
–
k) 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.
l) Position the cord clear of the spinning
accessory. If you lose control, the cord may
be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may
be pulled into the spinning accessory.
m) 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.
n) 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.
o) 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.
p) Do not operate the power tool near
ammable materials. Sparks could ignite
these materials.
q) Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
Further safety instructions for all operations
Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, sanding band, brush or any other
accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of
the rotating accessory which in turn causes the
uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction
opposite of the accessory’s rotation.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched
by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering
into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the
material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The
wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator,
depending on direction of the wheel’s movement at the
point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also break under
these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a rm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. The operator can
control kickback forces, if proper precautions
are taken.
b) Use special care when working corners,
sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and
snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp
edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag
the rotating accessory and cause loss of
control or kickback.
c) Do not attach a toothed saw blade. Such
blades create frequent kickback and loss of
control.
d) Always feed the bit into the material in the
same direction as the cutting edge is
exiting from the material (which is the
same direction as the chips are thrown).
Feeding the tool in the wrong direction causes
the cutting edge of the bit to climb out of the
work and pull the tool in the direction of this
feed.
e) When using rotary les, cut-off wheels,
high-speed cutters or tungsten carbide
cutters, always have the work securely
clamped. These wheels will grab if they
become slightly canted in the groove, and can
kickback. When a cut-off wheel grabs, the
wheel itself usually breaks. When a rotary le,
high-speed cutter or tungsten carbide cutter
grabs, it may jump from the groove and you
could lose control of the tool.
Safety Warnings Specic for Grinding and Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
a) Use only wheel types that are
recommended for your power tool and the
specic guard designed for the selected
when. Wheels for which the power tool was
not designed cannot be adequately guarded
and are unsafe
b) The grinding surface of centre depressed
wheels must be mounted below the plane
of the lip guard. An improperly mounted
when that projects through the plane of the
guard lip cannot be adequately protected.
c) The guard must be securely attached to
the power tool and positioned for
maximum safety, so the least amount of
wheel is exposed towards the operator.
The guard helps to protect the operator from
broken wheel fragments, accidental contact
with wheel and sparks that could ignite
clothing.
d) Wheels must be used only for
recommended applications. For example:
do not grind with the side of the cut-off
wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended
for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to
these wheels may cause them to shatter.
e) Always use undamaged wheel anges that
are of correct size and shape for your
selected wheel. Proper wheel anges
support the wheel thus reducing the possibility
of wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels
may be different from grinding wheel anges.
f) Do not use worn down wheels from larger
–
6
–
power tools. Wheels intended for larger
power tool is not suitable for the higher speed
of a smaller tool and may burst.
Additional Safety Warnings Specic for Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
a) Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply
excessive pressure. Do not attempt to
make and excessive depth of cut.
Overstressing the wheel increases the loading
and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the
wheel in the cut and possibility of kickback or
wheel breakage.
b) Do not position you body in line with and
behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel,
at the point of operation, is moving away from
your body, the possible kickback may propel
the spinning wheel and the power tool directly
at you.
c) When wheel is binding or when
interrupting a cut for any reason, switch
off the power tool and hold the power tool
motionless until the wheel comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the cut-off wheel from the cut while the
wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may
occur. Investigate and take corrective action
to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
d) Do not restart the cutting operation in the
workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed
and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel
may bind, walk up or kickback if the power
tool is restarted in the workpiece.
e) Support panels or any oversized
workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel
pinching and kickback. Large workpieces
tend to sag under their own weight. Supports
must be placed under the workpiece near the
line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece
on both sides of the wheel.
f) Use extra caution when making a “pocket
cut” into existing walls or other blind
areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or
water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that
can cause kickback.
Additional safety instructions for wire brushing
operations
Safety Warnings Specic for Wire Brushing
Operations:
a) 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.
b) 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.

6.2 GRINDING
When performing grinding operations maintain an angle of
approximately 30° between the work surface and the disc
face.
Only use abrasives specically designed for this task.
Warning!
Important legal information:
– Cutting operations should only be attempted with the
“cutting” guard tted to this grinder.
– Please contact Draper Tools for further information on
how to purchase this optional accessory.
– This guard must be tted for your safety.
– When performing cutting-off operations do not incline
the machine as this can lead to the abrasive wheel
becoming jammed, damaged or excessively and
abnormally worn.
– Only use abrasives specically designed for this task.
Warning: As the abrasive wheel wears during use, its
diameter reduces. This reduces the peripheral speed and
the machine’s efciency. This results in increased load on
the grinding machine which if continued will damage the
motor. Ensure that the diameter of the wheel is within 25%
of its original size.
Important: Excessive pressure on the machine does not
result in a higher abrasive efciency. Excessive pressure
increases wear and tear on the accessory and will damage
