Accessories must fit into the attachment
hardware on the power tool.
Accessories that do not fit the mounting
hardware will become unbalanced and
vibrate excessively, potentially causing
loss of control.
Do not use damaged accessories. Before
each use inspect accessories, such as
abrasive discs, for chips or cracks. If the
power tool or accessory is dropped,
inspect for damage or install an
accessory in good condition. Next, move
out of reach of the rotating accessory
and operate the power tool at maximum
no-load speed for one minute.
Typically, damaged accessories will break
during this testing time.
Use personal protective equipment.
Depending on the job being performed,
wear a face shield, eye protection, or
safety glasses. If applicable, use a dust
mask, hearing protectors, protective
gloves or a suitable workshop apron to
protect you from small fragments that
may be thrown when the tool or
workpiece is detached.
Eye protection must be indicated to
protect you from fragments that could be
detached when carrying out different
jobs. The dust or respiratory mask must
be suitable for filtering particles produced
when working. Prolonged exposure to
high-intensity noise can cause deafness.
Keep bystanders a safe distance from
the work area. Anyone entering the
work area must wear personal
protective equipment.
Fragments from the workpiece or a
broken accessory can be projected
beyond the immediate work area and
cause injury.
Hold the power tool by the insulated
handle when performing work where
the cutting accessory may contact
hidden electrical conduits.
Contact with a live wire can also electrify
metal parts of the tool and cause an
electric shock to the operator.
Never put the power tool down until the
accessory has come to a complete stop.
The rotating accessory can grab the
surface and pull the power tool causing
you to lose control of it.
Do not operate the power tool while
carrying it at your side.
Accidental contact with the rotating
accessory could snag your clothing, pulling
the accessory toward your body.
Regularly clean the vents on the power
tool.
The motor fan draws dust into the housing
and excessive metal dust buildup will
cause electrical hazards.
Do not use the power tool near
flammable materials.
The sparks produced when working can
set these materials on fire.
Do not use accessories that require liquid
refrigerants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may
cause electrocution or electric shock.
