Zipmate Abrasive Cut-Off Attachment Safety Rules
Always use wheel guard, and the tool's
auxiliary handle with this abrasive cut off
tool. The guard must always be securely
attached to the tool and positioned for
maximum safety, so the least amount of
wheel is exposed on the operators side of
the tool. A guard protects operator from
broken wheel fragments. The support ribs
and auxiliary handle provide additional
guarding, stability and control in cut off
applications. The body of your Rotozip tool
or your Zipmate attachment can also be
used as a handle.
Always be certain that the wheel guard,
and tool's auxiliary
reassembled and securely fastened to the
tool when changing the point of operation
from fire forward to fire reverse or after
changing the wheels. A tool missing an
essential safety component is dangerous to
operate.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
abrasive wheels may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live"
wire will make exposed metal parts of the
tool "live" and shock the operator.
Wear proper apparel while using an
abrasive cut off tool. Face shield or at least
safety goggles, dust mask, leather gloves
and shop apron capable of stopping small
wheel or workpiece fragments.
This attachment is not intended to be
used with Wet Diamond Wheels. Using
water or other liquid coolants with this tool
may result in electrocution or shock. Use of
Dry Diamond Wheels is acceptable.
Use only Type 1 abrasive cut off wheels
with the correct size arbor hole. Never
use damaged or incorrect wheel flanges
or round nut. Other types of wheels are not
intended to apply load on periphery and may
shatter. Wheels with arbor holes that do not
match the mounting hardware of the tool will

Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
run eccentrically, vibrate excessively and will
cause loss of control.
Do not grind on the side of Type 1
abrasive cut off wheels. Side forces
applied to these wheels may cause them to
shatter.
Do not use this attachment with
"Woodcarving" blade or standard wood
cutting toothed blades. These blades are
not intended for this tool and can create loss
of control during use.
Abrasive Cut Off Wheels must have a
maximum safe operating speed greater
than the "no load RPM" marked on the
handle are
attachment. Wheels running over the rated
speed can fly apart and cause injury.
Before each use inspect the cut off wheel
for chips and cracks. Do not use a wheel
that may be damaged. Install a new wheel
if tool was dropped. When installing a
new wheel carefully handle individual cut
off wheels to avoid chipping or cracking.
Run the tool at no load for one minute,
holding the tool in the direction away
from people. Wheels with flaws will
normally break apart during this time.
Fragments from a wheel that bursts during
operation will fly away at great velocity
possibly striking you or bystanders.
Do not use a cut off wheel that is larger
than the maximum recommended size for
your tool, or worn down damaged wheels
from larger abrasive cut off tools. Wheels
intended for larger tools are not suitable for
the higher speed of a smaller tool, these
wheels may easily burst and the fragments
strike you or bystanders.
Keep your body positioned to either side
of the wheel, but not in line with the
wheel. It is important to support the tool
properly and to position your body such as to
minimize body exposure from the possible
wheel binding and the recoil of the tool.
