Safety instructions for polishing
WARNING!
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. Save all warnings and
instructions for future reference.
This power tool is intended to function as a 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.
Operations such as grinding, sanding, wire brushing,

or cutting-off are not recommended to be performed
with this power tool.
Operations for which the power tool was not designed
may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
Do not use accessories which are not specifically

designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer.
Just because the accessory can be attached to your power
tool, it does not assure safe operation.
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.
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 guarded or controlled.
Threaded mounting of accessories must match the

grinder spindle thread. For accessories mounted by
flanges, the arbour hole of the accessory must fit the
locating diameter of the flange. 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.
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.
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 operations. The dust mask or
respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
