Safety warnings common for grinding,
sanding, wire brushing, polishing, carv-
ing or abrasive cutting-off operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function
as a grinder, sander, wire brush, polish-
er, carving or cut-off tool. Read all safe-
ty warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with this
power tool. Failure to follow all instruc-
tions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
c) Do not use accessories which are not
specifically designed and recommend-
ed by the tool manufacturer. Just be-
cause the accessory can be attached to
your power tool, it does not assure safe
operation.
d) The rated speed of the grinding acces-
sories must be at least equal to the
maximum speed marked on the power
tool. Grinding 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. In-
correctly sized accessories cannot be ad-
equately controlled.
f) The arbour size of wheels, sanding
drums or any other accessory must
properly fit the spindle or collet of the
power tool. Accessories 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) Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding
drums, cutters or other accessories
must be fully inserted into the collet or
chuck. If the mandrel is insufficiently held
and/or the overhang of the wheel is too
long, the mounted wheel may become
loose and be ejected at high velocity.
h) Do not use a damaged accessory. Be-
fore each use inspect the accessory
such as abrasive wheels for chips and
