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 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
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 personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of
a broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
