WARNING: Do not use edge grinding/
cutting wheels for surface grinding
applications because these wheels
are not designed for side pressures
encountered with surface grinding.
Wheel breakage and serious personal
injury may result.
Precautions To Take When
Wire Brushing Paint
1. Wire brushing of lead based paint is NOT
RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of
controlling the contaminated dust. The greatest
danger of lead poisoning is to children and
pregnant women.
2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a
paint contains lead without a chemical analysis,
we recommend the following precautions when
wire brushing any paint:
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. No children or pregnant women should enter
the work area where the paint wire brushing is
being done until all clean up is completed.
2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all
persons entering the work area. The filter should
be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has
difficulty breathing.
NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for
working with lead paint dust and fumes should
be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer
this protection. See your local hardware dealer
for the proper N.I.O.S.H. approved mask.
3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should
be done in the work area to prevent ingesting
contaminated paint particles. Workers should
wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking
or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking
should not be left in the work area where dust
would settle on them.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as
to minimize the amount of dust generated.
2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should
be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils
thickness.
3. Wire brushing should be done in a manner to
reduce tracking of paint dust outside the work
area.

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL
1. All surfaces in the work area should be
vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for the
duration of the wire brushing project. Vacuum
filter bags should be changed frequently.
2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and
disposed of along with any dust chips or other
removal debris. They should be placed in sealed
refuse receptacles and disposed of through
regular trash pick-up procedures.
During clean up, children and pregnant women
should be kept away from the immediate work
area.
3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by
children should be washed thoroughly before
being used again.
Mounting and Using Wire Brushes
and Wire Wheels
Wire cup brushes or wire wheels screw directly on
the grinder spindle without the use of flanges. Use
only wire brushes or wheels provided with a M14
threaded hub. A Type 27 guard is required when
using wire brushes and wheels.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of
personal injury, wear work gloves
when handling wire brushes and
wheels. They can become sharp.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of
damage to the tool, wheel or brush
must not touch guard when mounted
or while in use. Undetectable damage
could occur to the accessory, causing
wires to fragment from accessory wheel
or cup.
MOUNTING WIRE CUP BRUSHES AND WIRE WHEELS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, turn tool off
and and remove battery pack before
making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories.
1. Thread the wheel on the spindle by hand.
2. Depress spindle lock button and use a wrench
on the hub of the wire wheel or brush to tighten
the wheel.
3. To remove the wheel, reverse the above
procedure.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of
damage to the tool, properly seat the
wheel hub before turning the tool on.
