Safety warnings common for grinding,
sanding, wire brushing, polishing, carving or
abrasive cutting-off operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function as
a grinder, sander, wire brush, polisher,
carving or cut-off tool. Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifi cations provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fi re and/or
serious injury.
b) Do not use accessories which are not
specifi cally designed and recommended
by the tool manufacturer. Just because
the accessory can be attached to your power
tool, it does not assure safe operation.
c) The RATED SPEED of the accessories
must be at least equal to the operating
speed setting marked on the power tool.
Accessories running faster than their RATED
SPEED can break and fl y apart.
d) 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 controlled.
e) The arbour size of wheels, sanding drums
or any other accessory must properly fi t
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.
f) Mandrel MOUNTED WHEELS, sanding
drums, cutters or other accessories must
be fully inserted into the collet or chuck.
If the mandrel is insuffi ciently held and/or
the overhang of the wheel is too long, the
MOUNTED WHEEL may become loose and
be ejected at high velocity.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory.
Before each use inspect the accessory
such as abrasive wheels for chips and
cracks, sanding drum 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
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.
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 fl ying debris
generated by various operations. The
dust mask or respirator must be capable
of fi ltrating 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 fl y away and cause
injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring. Cutting
accessory contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
k) Always hold the tool fi rmly in your
hand(s) during the start-up. The reaction
torque of the motor, as it accelerates to full
speed, can cause the tool to twist.
l) Use clamps to support workpiece
whenever practical. Never hold a small
workpiece in one hand and the tool in the
other hand while in use. Clamping a small
workpiece allows you to use your hand(s)
to control the tool. Round material such as
dowel rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency
to roll while being cut, and may cause the bit
to bind or jump toward you.
m) 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.
n) Never lay the power tool down until the
