ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION

• Do not use Type 1/41 flat cut-off abrasive
or diamond wheels without proper guard
(see Accessories Chart in this manual.)
WARNING:
Always wear proper
personal hearing protection that
conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during
use. Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may
contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING:
ALWAYS use safety
glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT
safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask
if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS
WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING:
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the state of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and
cement and other masonry products,
and
• arsenic and chromium from
chemically-treated lumber.
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.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust
from power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction
activities. Wear protective clothing
and wash exposed areas with soap
and water. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING:
Use of this tool can
generate and/or disperse dust, which may
cause serious and permanent respiratory
or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA
approved respiratory protection appropriate
for the dust exposure. Direct particles away
from face and body.
WARNING:
The grinding wheel or
accessory may loosen during coastdown
of the tool when shut off. If grinding wheel
or accessory loosens, it may dismount from
the machine and may cause serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not operate this tool
for long periods of time. Vibration caused
by the operating action of this tool may
cause permanent injury to fingers, hands,
and arms. Use gloves to provide extra
cushion, take frequent rest periods, and
limit daily time of use.
WARNING:
When not in use, place
grinder on a stable surface where it will
not move inadvertently, roll or cause a
tripping or falling hazard.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of
personal injury, use extra care when
working into a corner or edge because a
sudden, sharp movement of the tool may
be experienced when the wheel or other
accessory contacts a secondary surface or
a surface edge.
• When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. The
following table shows the correct size
to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the
gage number, the heavier the cord.
