(Original instructions)

u Remove the tool from the work surface before turning

the tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying

it down.

Do not use edge grinding/cutting wheels for surface grinding

applications because these wheels are not designed for side

pressures encountered with surface grinding. Wheel breakage

and injury may result.

Using wire cup brushes and wire wheels

Wire wheels and brushes can be used for removing rust, scale

and paint, and for smoothing irregular surfaces.

Note: The same precautions should be taken when wire

brushng paint as when sanding paint.

u Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool

to the work surface.

u Apply minimum pressure to work surface, allowing the tool

to operate at high speed. Material removal rate is greatest

when the tool operates at high speed.

u Maintain a 5˚ to 10˚ angle between the tool and work

surface for wire cup brushes.

u Maintain contact between the edge of the wheel and the

work surface with wire wheels.

u Continuously move the tool in a forward and back motion

to avoid creating gouges in the work surface. Allowing the

tool to rest on the work surface without moving, or moving

the tool in a circular motion causes burning and swirling

marks on the work surface.

u Remove the tool from the work surface before turning

the tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before setting

it down.

Use extra care when working over an edge, as a sudden

sharp movement of grinder may be experienced.

Precautions to take when wire brushing paint

u Wire brushing of lead based paint is NOT

RECOMMENDED due to the difculty of controlling the

contaminated dust. The greatest danger of lead poisoning

is to children and pregnant women.

u Since it is difcult to identify whether or not a paint

contains lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend

the following precautions when wire brushing any paint:

Personal safety

u No children or pregnant women should enter the work

area where the paint wire brushing is being done until all

clean up is completed.

u A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons

entering the work area. The lter should be replaced daily

or whenever the wearer has difculty breathing.

Note: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead

paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting masks

do not offer this protection. See your local hardware dealer for

the proper respiratory protection.

u NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done

in the work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint

particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE

eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or

smoking should not be left in the work area where dust

would settle on them.

Environmental safety

u Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize

the amount of dust generated.

u Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed

with plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.

u Wire brushing should be done in a manner to reduce

tracking of paint dust outside the work area.

Cleaning and disposal

u All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed

and thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration of the

wire brushing project. Vacuum lter bags should be

changed frequently.

u Plastic drop cloths should be gatheredup and disposed

of along with any dust chips or other removal debris.

They should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and

disposed of through regular trash pick-up procedures.

During clean up, children and pregnant women should be

kept away from the immediate work area.

u All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children

should be washed thoroughly before being used again.

Using cutting wheels

Do not use edge grinding/cutting wheels for surface grinding

applications because these wheels are not designed for side

pressures encountered with surface grinding. Wheel breakage

and injury may result.

u Allow tool to reach full speed before touching tool to

work surface.

u Apply minimum pressure to work surface, allowing tool to

operate at high speed. Cutting rate is greatest when the

tool operates at high speed.

u Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the

workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut. Changing

the angle will cause the wheel to bend and may cause

wheel breakage.

u Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.

Allow the tool to stop rotating before setting it down.

Your STANLEY FATMAX tool has been designed to operate
