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.

SERVICE

a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair

person using only identical replacement parts. This will

ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR

ALL OPERATIONS

SAFETY WARNINGS THAT ARE COMMON

FOR GRINDING, SANDING, WIRE BRUSHING,

POLISHING OR ABRASIVE CUTTING OFF

OPERATIONS

a. This power tool is intended to function as a grinder,

sander, wire brush, polisher 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,

fire and/or serious injury.

b. 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.

c. 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.

d. 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.

e. The arbour size of wheels, flanges, backing pads or

any other accessory must properly fit the spindle of

the power tool. Accessories with arbour 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.

f. 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.

g. Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on

application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety

glasses. As appropriate, 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.

h. 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 fly away and cause injury beyond

immediate area of operation.

i. Hold 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 shock the operator.

j. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and

support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the

work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and

may lead to loss of control.

k. 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.

l. 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.

m. 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.

n. 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.

o. Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials.

Sparks could ignite these materials.

p. Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using

water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or

shock.

q. Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos is

considered carcinogenic).

r. Take protective measures when during work dust can

develop that is harmful to one’s health, combustible

or explosive (some dusts are considered carcinogenic);

wear a dust mask and work with dust/ chip extraction when

connectable.

KICKBACK AND RELATED WARNINGS

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating

wheel, backing pad, 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 at the point of the

binding. 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
