exception is when cutting around an outlet
box in drywall, which should be cut counter-
clockwise. Steering the tool in the wrong
direction, causes the cutting edge of the bit
to climb out of the work and pull the tool in
the direction of the feed.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp
bits must be handled with care. Damaged
bits can snap during use. Dull bits require
more force to push the tool, possibly causing
the bit to break.
Never touch the bit during or immediately
after the use. After use the bit is too hot to
be touched by bare hands.
Never lay the tool down until the motor
has come to a complete standstill. The
spinning bit can grab the surface and pull the
tool out of your control.
Never use bits that have a cutting
diameter greater than the opening in the
base.
Do not use the tool for drilling purposes.
This tool is not intended to be used with drill
bits.

WARNING
!
grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement
and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Always use the tool with the depth guide
securely attached and positioned flat
against material being cut. The guide
securely positioned on the material improves
the stability and control of your tool.
