1_MACHINE-SPECIFIC SAFETY
WARNINGS
SAFETY WARNINGS COMMON FOR GRINDING,
SANDING, WIRE BRUSHING OR ABRASIVE CUTTING-OFF
OPERATIONS
This power tool is intended to function as a grinder,
sander, wire brush or cut-off tool. Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications
provided with this power tool. Failure to fo-llow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
This power tool is not recommended for polishing.
Operations for which the power tool was not designed
may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
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.
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
accessory 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
the power tool. Accessories with arbor 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.
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use,
inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for
chips and cracks, backing pads for cracks, tears
or excess wear, wire brushes 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 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.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from the
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 the power tool only by the insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock
the operator.
Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If
you lose control of the power tool, the cord may be
cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled
into the spinning accessory. Never lay the power tool
down until the accessory has come to a complete stop.
The spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull
the power tool out of your control.
Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your
side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory
could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your
body.
Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The
motor's fan will draw the dust inside the housing and
excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause
electrical hazards.
Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in
electrocution or shock.

KICKBACK AND RELATED WARNINGS

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or
snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any
other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid
stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn causes
the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction
opposite of the accessory's rotation at the point of the
binding. For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged
or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that
is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface
of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick
out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from
the operator, depending on direction of the wheel's
movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels
may also break under these conditions. Kickback is the
result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback
forces.
Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum
control over kickback or torque reaction during startup.
The operator can control torque reactions or kickback
forces, if proper precautions are taken.
Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.
The accessory may kickback over your hand.
Do not position your body in the area where the
power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will
propel the tool in the direction opposite to the wheel's
movement at the point of snagging.
