Safety Warnings Common for Grinding or Abrasive
Cutting-Off Operations
This power tool is intended to function as a grinder or

cut-off tool. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illu-
strations and specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may re-
sult in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Operations such as sanding, wire brushing or polis-

hing 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 de-

signed 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 acces-

sory 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 grin-

der spindle thread. For accessories mounted by flanges,
the arbour hole of the accessory must fit the locating dia-
meter of the flange. Accessories that do not match the moun-
ting 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 in-

spect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips
and cracks, backing pad for cracks, tear or excess we-
ar, 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 instal-
ling 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 mi-
nute. Damaged accessories will normally break apart du-
ring this test time.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on

application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing pro-
tectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stop-
ping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye
protection must be capable of stopping flying debris gene-
rated 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.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area.

Anyone entering the work area must wear personal
protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a
broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces on-

ly, when performing an operation where the cutting ac-
cessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make expo-
sed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If

you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your
hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning accessory.
