4.1 Safety Warnings Common for Grinding,

Sanding, Wire Brushing or Abrasive

Cutting-Off Operations:

Use

a) This power tool is intended to function as a

grinder, sander, wire brush 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) Operations such as 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.

c) 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.

d) 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 fly 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 guarded or

controlled.

f) 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.

g) 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 a 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 flying debris generated by

various operations. The dust mask or respirator

must be capable of filtering particles generated by

your operation. Prolonged exposure to high

intensity noise may cause hearing loss.

i) 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.

j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces only, when performing an operation

where the cutting accessory may contact

hidden wiring or its own cord. A cutting

accessory contacting a "live" wire may make

exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and

give the operator an electric shock.

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.

I) 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.
