SERVICE
■ Tool service must be performed only by qualified
repair personnel. Service or maintenance per-
formed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk
of injury.
■ Always use proper guard with grinding wheel. A
guard protects operator from broken wheel frag-
ments.
■ Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels
and other accessories running over rated speed can
fly apart and cause injury.
■ Know your power tool. Read operator's manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations,
as well as the specific potential hazards related
to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
■ Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eye-
glasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they
are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
■ Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if
the operation is dusty. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
■ Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection
during extended periods of operation. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal
injury.
■ Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged,
have repaired at your nearest authorized service
center. Constantly stay aware of cord location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock or fire.
■ Check damaged parts. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it
will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or re-
placed by an authorized service center. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of shock, fire, or serious
injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■ When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-
ment parts. Follow instructions in the Mainte-
nance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized
parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions
may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
■ Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the tool may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact
with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of
the tool "live" and shock the operator.
■ Do not abuse cord. Never carry the tool by the
cord or yank it to disconnect it from the recep-
tacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp
edges. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock or fire.
■ Make sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at
least 16 is recommended for an extension cord
100 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 100
feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,
the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
■ Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber
before using this tool. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
■ Drugs, alcohol, medication. Do not operate tool
while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
any medication. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
■ Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently
and use them to instruct others who may use
this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan
them these instructions also.
