c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe
handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.

Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
3. Special Safety Instructions
3.1
Safety Warnings Common for Grinding,
Sanding, Wire Brushing, Polishing or
Cutting-Off Operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function as a
grinder, sander, wire brush and 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) Do not convert this power tool to operate in
a way which is not specifically designed and
specified by the tool manufacturer. Such a
conversion may result in a loss of control and cause
serious personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories which are not
specifically designed and specified 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 cannot be adequately controlled.
f) The dimensions of the accessory mounting
must fit the dimensions of the mounting
hardware 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.
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
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 flying debris generated by
various applications. The dust mask or respirator
must be capable of filtrating particles generated by
the particular application. 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.
k) 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.
l) 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.
m) Regularly clean the air vents of your power
tool. The motor's fan will draw the dust inside the
housing and excessive accumulation of powdered
metal may cause electrical hazards.
n) Do not operate the power tool near
flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these
materials.
