wheel immediately. Run the tool (with guard) at
no load for about a minute, holding tool away
from others. If wheel is flawed, it will likely sepa-
rate during this test.
7. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
8. Be careful not to damage the spindle, the flange
(especially the installing surface) or the lock nut.
Damage to these parts could result in wheel
breakage.
9. NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades or
other sawblades. Such blades when used on a
grinder frequently kick and cause loss of control
leading to personal injury.
10. Hold the tool firmly.
11. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
12. Make sure cord is clear of wheel. Do not wrap
cord around your arm or wrist. If control of tool
is lost, cord may become wrapped around you
and cause personal injury.
13. Make sure the wheel is not contacting the work-
piece before the switch is turned on.
14. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let
it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
that could indicate poor installation or a poorly
balanced wheel.
15. Use the specified surface of the wheel to per-
form the grinding.
16. Watch out for flying sparks. Hold the tool so that
sparks fly away from you and other persons or
flammable materials.
17. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
18. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after
operation; it may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
19. ALWAYS wear proper apparel including long
sleeve shirts, leather gloves and shop aprons to
protect skin from contact with hot grindings.
20. Use of this tool to grind or sand some products,
paints and wood could expose user to dust con-
taining hazardous substances. Use appropriate
respiratory protection.
21. After using the tool, make sure the wheel rota-
tion comes to a complete stop before setting the
tool down. Setting the tool down with the wheel
rotating can cause personal injury.
