power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
 Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
 Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a fire.

SAFETY WARNINGS COMMON FOR GRINDING,
SANDING AND POLISHING OPERATIONS
 This power tool is intended to function as a grinder,
sander, or polisher. Read all safety warnings, in-
structions, 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.
 Operations such as wire brushing or cutting-off are
not recommended to be performed with this power
tool. Operations for which the power tool was not de-
signed may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
 Do not use accessories which are not specifically
designed and recommended by the tool manufac-
turer. Just because the accessory can be attached to
your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
 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.
 The outside diameter and the thickness of your ac-
cessory must be within the capacity rating of your
power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be
adequately guarded or controlled.
 The arbor size of wheels, flanges, backing pads or
any other accessory must properly fit the spindle of

SERVICE
 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 main-
tained.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, user must
read instruction manual.
 When servicing a power tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Main-
tenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized
parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may
create a risk of shock or injury.
 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.
 Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on
application, use face shield, safety goggles or safe-
ty 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 filtrating particles gen-
erated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high
intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
 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.
 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting ac-
cessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the
operator.
