PRIOR TO OPERATION

1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to the power source requirements specifi ed on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the switch is in the OFF position. If the plug is connected to a receptacle while the switch is in the ON
position, the power tool will start operating immediately and can cause serious injury.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is far away from the power source, use an extension cord of suffi cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as practicable.
WARNING
Damaged cord must be replaced or repaired.
4. Check the receptacle
If the receptacle only loosely accepts the plug, the receptacle must be repaired. Contact a licensed electrician to
make appropriate repairs.
If such a faulty receptacle is used, it may cause overheating, resulting in a serious hazard.
5. Confi rming condition of the environment:
Confi rm that the work site is placed under appropriate conditions conforming to prescribed precautions.
When sanding a thin steel plate, depending upon the state of the workbench, a loud noise will be created due to
resounding noise from the steel plate being ground. To eliminate unwanted noise in this instance, place a rubber
mat beneath the material to be ground.
