contaminated dust. The greatest danger of lead poisoning is
to children and pregnant women.
2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains
lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend the
following precautions when sanding any paint:
Personal safety
1. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area
where the paint sanding or wire brushing is being done
until all clean up is completed.
2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons
entering the work area. The filter should be replaced daily or
whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing.
nOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead
paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting
masks do not offer this protection. See your local hardware
dealer for the proper N.I.O.S.H. approved mask.
3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the
work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles.
Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking
or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be
left in the work area where dust would settle on them.
Environmental safety
1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize
the amount of dust generated.
2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed
with plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.
3. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of
paint dust outside the work area.
Cleaning and Disposal
1. All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and
thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration of the sanding
project. Vacuum filter bags should be changed frequently.
2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed
of along with any dust chips or other removal debris. They
should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed
of through regular trash pick-up procedures.
During clean up, children and pregnant women should be
kept away from the immediate work area.
3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children
should be washed thoroughly before being used again.
Edge Grinding and Cutting

WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/cutting wheels for
surface grinding applications because these wheels are
not designed for side pressures encountered with surface
grinding. Wheel breakage and injury may result.

CAUTION: Wheels used for edge grinding and cutting
may break or kick back if they bend or twist while the tool
is being used. In all edge grinding/cutting operations, the
open side of the guard must be positioned away from
the operator.
NOTICE: Edge grinding/cutting with a Type 27 wheel
must be limited to shallow cutting and notching—less
than 13 mm in depth when the wheel is new. Reduce the
depth of cutting/notching equal to the reduction of the
wheel radius as it wears down. Refer to the Accessories
Chart for more information. Edge grinding/cutting with a
Type 41 wheel requires usage of a Type 1 guard.
1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool
to the work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing
the tool to operate at high speed. Grinding/cutting rate is
greatest when the tool operates at high speed.
3. Position yourself so that the open-underside of the wheel is
facing away from you.
4. Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the
workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut. Changing
the angle will cause the wheel to bend and may cause
wheel breakage. Edge grinding wheels are not designed to
withstand side pressures caused by bending.
5. Remove the tool from the work surface before turning
the tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying
it down.
Metal Applications
When using the tool in metal applications, make sure that a
residual current device (RCD) has been inserted to avoid residual
risks caused by metal swarf.
If the power supply is shut off by the RCD, take the tool to an
authorised D WALT repair agent.
e

WARNING: In extreme working conditions, conductive
dust can accumulate inside the machine housing when
working with metal. This can result in the protective
insulation in the machine becoming degraded with a
potential risk of an electrical shock.
To avoid build-up of metal swarf inside the machine, we
recommend to clear the ventilation slots on a daily basis. Refer
to Maintenance.

Cutting Metal

For cutting with bonded abrasives, always use the
guard type 1.
When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to the
material being cut. Do not exert pressure onto the cutting disc,
tilt or oscillate the machine.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting discs by
applying sideward pressure.
The machine must always work in an upgrinding motion.
Otherwise, the danger exists of it being pushed uncontrolled
out of the cut.
When cutting profiles and square bar, it is best to start at the
smallest cross section.
Rough Grinding
never use a cutting disc for roughing.
Always use the guard type 27.
The best roughing results are achieved when setting the
machine at an angle of 30° to 40°. Move the machine back and
forth with moderate pressure. In this manner, the workpiece
will not become too hot, does not discolour and no grooves
are formed.
