WET POLISHER SAFETY WARNINGS

SAFETY WARNINGS COMMON
FOR WET POLISHING
OPERATIONS
(a) This power tool is intended to function
as a wet polisher. Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
(b) Operations such as grinding,
sanding, wire brushing or cutting-off are
not recommended 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 can-
not be adequately guarded or controlled.
(f) Threaded mounting of accessories
must match the grinder spindle thread.
For accessories mounted by flanges, 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 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 inspec-
ting 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 acces-
sories 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) Position the cord clear of the spinning
accessory. If you lose control, the cord
may be cut or snagged and your hand or
arm may be pulled into the spinning
accessory.
