4.1 Safety Warnings Common for Grinding,
Sanding, Wire Brushing or Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function as a grin-
der, sander, wire brush or cut-off tool. Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications
provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all inst­
ructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious injury.
b) Long term polishing operations are not recommen-
ded 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.
16
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 ade­
quately guarded or controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the
grinder spindle thread. For accessories mounted by flan­
ges, the arbour hole of the accessory must fit the locating
diameter of the flange. Accessories that do not match the
mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of ba­
lance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use damaged tools. Before each use inspect
the tool 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 tool is
dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged
tool. After inspecting and installing an tool, 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 tools will nor­
mally break apart during this test period.
h) Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face shield, safety gog-
gles 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 respi­
rator must be capable of filtrating 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 per-
sonal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or
of a broken tool may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
j) Hold power tool with insulated gripping surfaces
only, when performing an operation where the cutting
tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
tool contacting a „live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool „live" and shock the operator.
k) Position the cord clear of the spinning tool.
If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and
your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning tool.
I) Never lay the power tool down until the tool has
come to a complete stop. The spinning tool 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 tool could
snag your clothing, pulling the tool into your body.
